I'm saving this video for after my dinner but I got my first tattoo 33 years ago and it still looks great!

every time I consider getting a tattoo in a style that may not age well, I think to myself "BOLD WILL HOLD"

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.

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. 👏

Waste of pain 😂😂

love the longer videos man!

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! 😉👍

Oooof that sky bruise tattoo is the worst

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.

Good work brother! Oh, and got a tattoo schduled with someone you featured on another video! Thanks for highlighting talented artists :)

Saw a guys 60 year old eagle he got in Africa during the war. Holding up sick

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

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

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 😊❤

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.

Thanks for your videos, makes me more aware of what to get since I’m new to tattoos.

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.

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!

Been really enjoying your videos the past week!

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...)

Just subbed we’re gonna make it to 10k man!!!

Love your passion. Had me cracking up. Subscribed :)

I definitely like the longer vids !

Fucking love this channel. 😂😂😂 Tells it like it is.

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 :)

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.

Commenting to help with the algo, lets get you famous on here. o/

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

This diplomatic side of you is pretty disconcerting at first though I really liked your positive perspective. Subscribed

That last flower is ROUGH. I would be crushed to walk around with that. Big oof!

When I started getting tatted my buddy was an old school sailor Jerry fan...10 years later all my tatts look exactly the same.

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

The orange orange just disappeared. Perfect.

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 ?

I've never seen Kirk so mad about tattoos and I completely agree!

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.

We love your videos

Would love to hear your opinion on engraving or woodblock tattoos and if you think they’d age well

3:11 This is just gorgeous

Quality content 🤌🏻

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

6:39 ok I can support that

Bro the moon and the cookie!!! I say that every time someone wants a damn moon. 😂🤦‍♂️

I like the skull but the rose and the mirror are terrible.

Are you gonna do a judge subscribers tattoos video

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

Is that the Chihiro scene ❤

what's the difference between a moon and a cookie 😂😂😂😂 literally.

6:01 not the world's greatest portrait????? That looks like his face was just printed there wow

Buddy had a toke before this video for suuure lmfao

I love my tattoos but in most cases other peoples tattoos look like trash to me

Oooff. That arm one looks like a gnarly bruise. Gross.

14:26 looks horrible healed ! Very bruised looking

14:03 That looks like a fart over a sulfur pit.

Bro you are colour blind when looking at the flower tattoo 😂

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.

STAY ANALOO BROS!

“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.
