I am tattooed and I love tattoo shows.
A lot of people think that people who actually have tattoos
and really think about their tattoos don’t watch tattoo shows. This isn’t 100%
true. I am a tattoo show junkie.
I watch Best Ink, Ink Master, Bad Ink, and Tattoo
Nightmares. I watched Miami Ink, New York Ink, and LA Ink. If Tattoo Titans was
available on demand I would watch that as well.
People may wonder why I watch tattoo shows. I love tattoos. I
love watching people be tattooed. I love being tattooed. I also go to tattoo
expos/conventions when I can. I think all of these things help me be a better
consumer. Some people may not agree.
Since watching tattoo shows I’m pickier when I chose an
artist (I wish I had been years ago). I make sure the artist has a portfolio I
can look at. I really look at their work. I look at how the artist interacts
with other clients.
Some people feel differently about tattoo shows. Some people
think it is a lot of hype. Some people think the shows are rigged. That is just
another opinion. I will continue to be a tattoo show junkie.
