  • Finding the right dark skin artist is always a challenge so let me tell you some tips that'll save you a lot of headaches.
    Never take a tattoo artist out of their comfort zone. Learning to tattoo takes repetition so:
    1. Never deal with an artist that doesn't have dark skin examples in their portfolio. There is a specific method that they need to do and you do not want to be their practice.
    2. Always select an artist based on their style. If you want a photorealistic design, don't go to someone who specializes in graffiti designs. If possible, look for someone who's done very similar tattoo (drawing a great lion doesn't mean they're good at drawing people). They can be great at what they do and still be terrible for your vision.
    3. Try to find an artist who is surrounded by other great artists. This isn't a black and white rule but generally speaking an artist thats surrounded by other good artist will continue to grow their skills while a travelling artist or a solo studio artist may not (it might also point to personality issues and who needs that drama).
    The third tip is my reason for the format of this video. Where is the best place to find dark skin specialists? Watch and find out!

    These artists are amazing me, I always hated when people would say these colors wouldn’t work on dark skin, etc. Proved them wrong!

    Please more about tattooing especially on various dark skin tones. Also a good way to get into the industry, ways I have seen of getting in seems to be discouraging because I have talked to artists I respected their work and the vibe is negative when asking about apprenticeships.

      Yeah, Ive that some artists are great at their art but maybe not the best at professionalism.

    It's crazy how all the videos on "color on dark skin" shows tattoos on "lighter" skinned black people and not darker...

      I think he meant a lot of the canvas displayed is between 4-6.5 and no one seems to have skin that’s more like a 9
      Also
      It would be great to see follow pictures post healing. Most of these look very fresh and the colors can change in vibrancy after the healing process.

    Very awesome work but where's the artwork on darker skin. These are all work on a lighter brown completion.

    Love the video, but your commentary was lost to some very loud metal for approximately the last third of the video, and there was no close captioning, so I have no idea what you had to say. Might want to talk to your editor.

      Unfortunately the editor is me 😭 I had a much better song on the end but youtube be youtubin. I may reupload with some instrumentals if I can find the raw video files...

      @@yungmentalproblemsin tattooing you better see color. Even on lighter brown skin you still have a limited range of colors and value ranges compared to fair skin. Doesn’t mean anyone is racist. I’m black and it’s common sense that the same vibrant color tattoo on a fair skin person is not going to look the same on me. It just won’t no matter how well the tattoo is executed.
