my tattoo damage 😔😭

[mintybreez]

Never trust a tattoo artist without gloves. The damage is permanent.

The tattoo artist with his dirty finger nails on the fresh tattoo 😭

Jesus even prison tattoos don't come out this bad

Hi. Medical field worker and tattoo enthusiast here. This is NOT simply a case of ink rejection or allergic reaction. This is a staph infection. 100%. And a gnarly one at that. Most likely cross contamination from the tattoo artist not wearing gloves

First red flag: Artist not wearing gloves 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Josie-]

Stop getting tattoos in your homie’s basement. 😑

[thearthurmarston]

The fact that the artist didnt glove up to maintain hygiene should have been enough of a sign for you to walk out of that shop…. This is completely on you.

Dude what in the actual fuck was that set up? No gloves???? Get yourself tested my g, not even playing. I doubt his machines were even close to sanitized, and you're lucky if you got a new needle.

First off, the artist isn’t wearing gloves. Secondly the machine isn’t wrapped I just know it. And your concern is about the tattoo being ruined? Go get tested.

[merdoscooper]

the artist hands are filthy. you can see dirt and grime on the finger nails. not surprised

I’ve done tattoos before when I first started to get into tattoos, but I’ve always went by the rule book when it comes to being clean, using the correct ink, tattoo machines, the amount of power, and everything else that’ll make the experience better. The tattoos I’ve done even though the were bad 😂 they still show up well and never did this to anyone skin. I thank God he gave me the resources to not do this to someone.

A LOT of people are allergic to red inks! It’s not a well know fact but it happens quite often. Tattoo artist really need to verbalize this disclaimer to clients who have never had red ink. Sorry this happened.

-Edit: I’m not making any claims that the ink color absolutely caused this. It just looks a great deal like acute ink rejection, which can easily cooccur with various types of infection. This whole tattoo situation is definitely a problem waiting to happen. 💕♥️

The music is way to cheerful, this is horrifying.

[adamwest]

It’s amazing how they changed race toward the end.

[tribaltatooandartstudio]

This happened because the artist was not wearing gloves and he was touching the tattoo with his dirty fingernail, that's why the infection happened and it was also the customer's fault that he applied mosturaiger in excess. Don't always save money when you only eat good things in food, then why get tattoo done cheaply when it will always be on your skin

[Tokyok]

That’s why you always make sure your artist is wearing gloves and using new needles

[mountainbound]

Red and green pigment are the most likely to cause an allergic reaction resulting in scarring. This happened coincidentally to a similar rose I had. Skin is fragile, beware. ❤

[troops]

i tattoo myself without gloves but i at least have clean hands ☠️ ive never had anything like this happen

[josuevazquez]

Lil bro is tattoing you with no gloves and black nails 😭

[bamburton]

The nails + no gloves is WIIIILD 😮‍💨… that explains everything
