I'm saving this video for after my dinner but I got my first tattoo 33 years ago and it still looks great!
I'm not claiming it's perfect but it looks great for its age!
I bet you do brother! Good tattoos should hold out for the long haul
I highly doubt that!
@@pacovl46if its tradittional it can holf up fairly well.
I meet a 80 year old with a 60 yo tattoo that looked pretty good
@mogambo2445 yeah, traditional does hold up well because of the thick outlines and pretty basic layout, but all the lines in that tatto will be fuzzy. There's no two ways about it.
"What's the difference between a moon and a cookie?" - Kirk Fagan 🤣
I laughed at that, too.
every time I consider getting a tattoo in a style that may not age well, I think to myself "BOLD WILL HOLD"
It’s not about bold, it’s about contrast.
The orange orange just disappeared. Perfect.
being form the East coast of Canada I've seen a lot of guys from the navy/sailors who have old tattoos, I love the look of them. I once saw this guy, he must've been 80 covered in sailor tattoos in front of a ice cream parlour called Moo Moos when I was a kid, that guy inspired me to be interested in tattoos not my instagram feed
Newfoundland moo moos? 🫨😄
@@trashcanjam yup lol
Oooof that sky bruise tattoo is the worst
This is why I went for black ink only for my tats. It takes the longest to fade **and** is easiest to remove should future me decide he hates them (which seems unlikely, but I haven't met the guy, so...)
All my ink work is black it could do with a touch up but still lasted yrs.
@@daveybeuy A elderly neighbour has a tat he had done in 1964 while in the Navy. It's still looking pretty good. It's in stark black in ink and hasn't turned bluish-green as sometimes happens. I think it depends on the composition of the ink.
I've met him and he's a complete asshole. That mfer owes me money.
i have a fine line black and grey chicano style sleeve. Its 17 years old! I dont let one drop of sun touch it and it still looks great
Been really enjoying your videos the past week!
thank you so much, i really appreciate it
Fucking love this channel. 😂😂😂 Tells it like it is.
We love you too!
Thanks for your videos, makes me more aware of what to get since I’m new to tattoos.
That realistic sky tattoo looks like a real bad bruise
realistic sky looks like sepsis
I don’t really agree with the assessment with the floral ones. I feel like you’re looking at it expecting it to look like a traditional tattoo. They are flowers. They’re meant to be soft. I don’t think people get them expecting them to look anything but delicate.
I like the skull but the rose and the mirror are terrible.
The orange orange aged pretty badly 😂
Buddy had a toke before this video for suuure lmfao
8 yrs?? fab
one big blowout
14:03 That looks like a fart over a sulfur pit.
I'm waiting to see those embroidery patch tattoos when they get older. I think they're really cool, and as someone who collects patches, would like to get one. But I think that they probably don't age well. A lot of fine lines and highlights that I can see fading out.
What's patches?
I've spent weeks thinking about getting a no-outline color tattoo... aaaaand I think this video changed my mind. Thanks for keeping it real. 👏
Solid black outlines means you can always get it touched up after a few years, even by a different artist.
“Obviously that’s a pile of shit.” 😂😂 bro first video I’ve ever seen of yours and I subscribed. Good video. And ur unintentionally funny af. Love the video brother.
Thank you bro. I appreciate you being here
Waste of pain 😂😂
Saw a guys 60 year old eagle he got in Africa during the war. Holding up sick
Bold will hold hahah
I agree about the black outline. I just got a new tattoo and in my very first message to the artist I asked for full-color with a black outline. On the day of the appointment, I felt she was unprepared. She had to ask if I wanted color or B&W, so I reminded her I wanted color, then after she was done, I took a look at the tattoo and was shocked to see it had NO OUTLINE whatsoever. I had her go back in and add one, because there was no way I was walking out like that.
10:29 The tattoo just morphed into a different style and I think thats totally fine. It doesnt look bad. Just different.
love the longer videos man!
Glad you like them. we got a ton more coming
The way you say "peony" cracks me up.. and i hear a lot of people saying it like this all the time.. but its "Pee-uh-nee" not "pee-oh-nee" lol Love your vids though!
Well, some people like my 1st / 30yrs old tats the best. Sure, the lines have blurred a bit, but the stuff sticks. Actually, that was part of the reason why I fell back into getting tattooed again after 20yrs. Dear greetings from a 60+ yrs old German fan of your show. Luv your work. Get that community! 😉👍
Good work brother! Oh, and got a tattoo schduled with someone you featured on another video! Thanks for highlighting talented artists :)
Love your passion. Had me cracking up.

Thank you friend
Oooff. That arm one looks like a gnarly bruise. Gross.
My friend recommended this channel and it's been so informative. I am learning a lot like not to be too obsessed with aftercare, picking the right colors, outlines, and even hospitality that'll make the tattooers job much easier. Also, now I am going for it because I am a slimmer guy trying to get muscle, your words in previous videos saying I'll be fine really helped 😊❤
Commenting to help with the algo, lets get you famous on here. o/
Thank you for that! We appreciate all the help and support
When you want to watch actual critiques instead of dramatized ones you come to Kirk.
"This is a bad tattoo, I hate that it exists" 🤣
That fine line/pointillism tattoo you showed first actually healed insanely nice.
Not usually into stuff like that but it looked real slick healed.
New sub, no tattoos but hooked on tattoo content. Is 44 too late to start 😆
I’ve always wanted a really big back piece, one over my shoulder into the centre of my back. Nothing else, just the one. Everyone with Tatts I’ve ever told has suggested starting smaller, but I don’t want some silly little tattoo as a trial, I only want the one thing and will look for an amazing artist that specialises in the style I want to hopefully have it go well. Any thoughts ?
Hang on, do you do mandalas.I recall you saying you punched one out strong and clear on a guys forearm in another vid
Are you gonna do a judge subscribers tattoos video
Yea still waiting on more, but in the next few videos we’ll be mentioning it in our videos
@@kirkfagantattoo ok cool!!
what's the difference between a moon and a cookie 😂😂😂😂 literally.
14:26 looks horrible healed ! Very bruised looking
Dude right!!
I only have American traditional tattoos with the exception of a Japanese dragon head on my leg from a flash event. They all still look pretty much brand new. Bold will hold.
Please please react to Korean tattoos and give feedback on the style and skill.
There is a really famous artist called Kimo Ink. He makes glass-like tattoos. And I really want his work on my body but I don’t know if it’s gonna last long term
I think he's already talked about him briefly in a past video 🧐
14:55 19:50 Not everything has to last 30 years. It’s perfectly fine to get delicate colors or whatever with the understanding that you’ll probably need to get it touched up every once in a while. You have no idea what that person wanted or expected. What if they don’t like black outlines? I’d rather have a tattoo I like that I have to touch up than a tattoo I dislike that sticks around forever.
I really like that delicate look
6:01 not the world's greatest portrait????? That looks like his face was just printed there wow
10:40 i like the aged one better
grasshopper,what is the difference between a moon and a cookie ?
the moon is made of cheese
13:06 just sees a single leg somehow walking by, is impressed instead of confused or horrified.
….checks out😂
Really love the honesty with these videos. I've been showing these to my friends who've been thinking about getting tatted.
I agree, his advice seems to come from a really genuine place
The "Obviously it's a pile of shit!" got me 🤣
That last flower is ROUGH. I would be crushed to walk around with that. Big oof!
I love my tattoos but in most cases other peoples tattoos look like trash to me
I just got a tattoo today and my tattooist told me to wear cling film for 24-7 for the first 7 days apart from when I clean it twice a day. Does this doing right
What's your opinion about "blackout" tattoos, but with colors? So... I want to get my right leg tattooed with tradicional tattooes and I want a blue "background" for it. Is it a good idea? (Sorry for my bad english)
I grew up with my sister (16 years dif) she is a tattoo artist with 20+ years experience now. Somehow, still dont have a tatoo at 34, but i drew one, its on my wall, adore it, real glad i never got it done now, i can definetely see how bad it would of aged, i should outline more and maybe make some hight black shading in some places, the drawing itself, has a nice balance of not too much details but still detailed... i should redraw it.... maybe one day ill get it done... or not.
I definitely like the longer vids !
Thank you brother
The last guy's orange tattoo...it literally disappeared! I've never seen a tattoo fade to that degree. Like, whoa!
I don’t really agree with the assessment with the floral ones. I feel like you’re looking at it expecting it to look like a traditional tattoo. They are flowers. They’re meant to be soft. I don’t think people get them expecting them to look anything but delicate.
This diplomatic side of you is pretty disconcerting at first though I really liked your positive perspective. Subscribed
Bro you are colour blind when looking at the flower tattoo 😂
Would love to hear your opinion on engraving or woodblock tattoos and if you think they’d age well
it doesn't matter how many times you tell them ,you can whip pout your license and say trust me!...nope!
A lot of tattoo artists frown on handpoke because it’s time consuming but tbh most handpoke I’ve ever seen is nice for decades
Most of my tattoos are traditional, neo traditional or irezumi. I’m not at all worried about them again. Most of them are 10 years old and looking really strong. There are too many artists tattooing styles that will not hold up.
“A pile of shit” 😂😂 well that’s exactly what most people get as tattoos nowadays omg 😅
I didn't really like the look of the skull tattoo but I think it got a lot better after healing!
I have a collar rocker that's almost 20 years old and still looks great. It's big script lettering, shading is still saturated and lines still look clean. I really lucked out, as it was my first tattoo and I didn't know much about tattoos at the time.
6:39 ok I can support that
I thanks for your content. Also love the longer vids. I would have really liked to know for each tattoo for how long they were healed in the second picture :)
thank you so much, yea unfortunately for a lot of the pics they did not mention how long it had been
I've never seen Kirk so mad about tattoos and I completely agree!
I really hope your channel blows up! You’re really amazing! Haha my sleeve looks like crap now. It’s over 20 years old and blah… looked bad when he laid it on and looks awful now. I’d love to get your opinion for options for it! That would rule
Thank you friend! You can always dm me pics on ig and I’ll give some of my thoughts
@@kirkfagantattoo awesome. I’ll look you up there! Thanks man!
We love your videos
Thank you friend! Always appreciate you
the flapper skull has quite the jaw line
Is that the Chihiro scene ❤
Just subbed we’re gonna make it to 10k man!!!
its all about your lines, man
STAY ANALOO BROS!
I just hate fine line tats. bleee
moon/cookie...same shit
maybe they're a vampire
Quality content 🤌🏻
wtf is analoo?
Bro the moon and the cookie!!! I say that every time someone wants a damn moon. 😂🤦♂️
Hahaha right!!
❤
When I started getting tatted my buddy was an old school sailor Jerry fan...10 years later all my tatts look exactly the same.
3:11 This is just gorgeous
the “seeing the sun often” comment kind of bothers me, because why get tattoos if you’re not gonna wear sunscreen/sunblock when you’re in the sun to keep them healthy and colorful? i’ve got some yellow in a ghost face tattoo and granted i haven’t had it for a while but i haven’t noticed any fading.
