[@televation]

listening to everyone trip over themselves about the mirror image somehow made me dumber as well

[@VorpalSnickerSnack]

Remember how everyone was laughing at stories of clients not understanding mirrors? We just got glimps into the infectious confusion.

[@Sandrilyonaify]

"Red ink is not everyone's friend" - I feel that... I have several types of red in my skin, one of those just randomly acts out years from when tattoo was done, itches and get's all bulgy, then goes away, that's so weird, seems I'm allergic to a particular shade or brand of pigment.

[@zaryaswife]

my first tat has some substantial red and it healed fine (actually I got it 1 year ago today!) but there are places that need to be touched up for that same reason about packing it in. It just did not take as well as the other colours lol

[@katefarms]

Ironically I have two very colorful tattoos and the red ink healed fine on me but the only color to come out patchy and uneven ended up being purple. My skin no like the ourple

[@swilliams23]

I have a color tattoo and the red doesn’t give issue but sometimes the black outline gets itchy and raised, usually in the summer. I was told I might be allergic but it isn’t too bad

[@DeeDee-lx1ef]

Mines purple 😂

[@sassysuzy4u]

The Dream Chaser one really is backwards, it is on his left arm and if you pause carefully you can see the writing on his shirt behind it, is opposite it.

[@tattoodude8946]

Good call!

[@kornklone]

Good call. I was ready to call BS as well till I saw that. I was like "How the fuck did the artist manage to do it mirrored?"

[@juliannabugert84]

The absolute mindfuck on round 2 😭

[@grammernotzi]

"It's correct in real life" 🤔... 😆 That made me laugh, like mirrors are some magical portal that exists outside of reality.

[@caeller11]

Everyone trying to figure out if the orientation of “dream chaser” was me my first month of X-ray school looking at films

[@PyroJosh222]

the editor never misses 🙌🏼

[@tobiasvanbrakel1172]

We dont deserve this god-level editing 😭

[@benbaggen2375]

Glad they could all share a brain cell to figure out the "backwards" tattoo

[@SPACE.KITTY.]

Yeah, now we know how the artist messed up 😂

[@gabriellescott7035]

“Do you react to things?” Hahaha

[@Bowling_Dude]

I like to think i'm a pretty good client when it comes to tattoos. I will give my general idea and placement and then let the artist do their thing. I also am always open to changing the placement if they think their design would flow better on a different area.

[@leslie3550]

Round 2: I'm still confused!! I need to see it again!!! 🤔😵‍💫

[@liloreoinya]

I watched it back and I'm still confused. I'm going to assume it was wrong because he'd be called out on the video.

[@Herosoyyo2]

@@liloreoinya If we assume the first clip wasn't mirrored in editing, yeah, it's backwards. The second could've been taken with the front facing camera, which is sometimes set to mirror automatically. I'm gonna say we can't know, because people do all kinds of things for attention on tiktok. And I guess I just find it hard to believe that someone worked on that for... at least a couple hours, all the while failing to notice every letter looks like nonsense lines rather than a letter from the alphabet. Could happen, though. Maybe they noticed too late and kept quiet.

[@GoodKyn]

its wrong because its on the left arm and not the right arm. if it was on the right arm then it would be correct. Dream should start on the wrist on the left arm

[@joeyaguinaga2597]

The fact that none of the artists knew that is was backwards was really disturbing.

[@felix-ve8jk]

None of the artists on these videos are ever worth consulting on anything tattoo related anyways. So not surprising.

[@gloriazaragoza3349]

Are you running out of questions ⁉️

[@imikelav2610]

What was Blud babbling about tho fr

[@gloriazaragoza3349]

@@imikelav2610 Yes true, it was funny 🤣.

[@hopebest9246]

I personally like white ink tattoos, especially because they fade. I 100% know what I’m asking for when I’m asking for it

[@CarinaVlogs]

oh btw the tattoo IS backwards just look at the text on his shirt. that is correct or is that printed backwards?

[@mawindlangamandla6581]

I had a hard time going back to the shot of the tattoo when the artists are now talking about it,,where'd the still-shots go😭

[@CarinaVlogs]

don't people check the stencil before allowing the artist to start...........

[@CarryCherry92]

I really don't get it either. There was a spelling mistake in my latest tattoo which I did not notice until the stencil was on but realized it when waiting for it to dry so they changed the stencil real quick and now it's on correct. English is not their and my first language and it was an easy mistake. Triple check everything! This is for life.

[@Djungleskogg]

The Inked Council coming together

[@catcandiez]

the mirror stuff is so stupid😭😭 he approved the stencil after looking at it in the mirror, and then actually looked at it and its backwards . do they not realize that phone cameras do not mirror things

[@SaheeliRai]

The front camera often does, because people are used to look at themselves in the mirror.

[@JoshuaHenelyThornhill]

I love traditional, tattoos but Jesus Christ. I’m scared to death to get red ink and my skin just falling off and shit.

[@isthisnametaken9965]

Might be better how it was before without the slides that say the round number 🤷 just a thought

[@germanbrac7663]

😂

[@wandering_heart]

I'm just a man. And I support all men's rights and wrongs.

[@lunahyacinth6335]

My tattoo refused to hold the white ink meant to fill in a dove (with an outline) and when it finally healed it went from a cross and dove to a dick tipped cross with a seagull lol

[@GoodKyn]

Dream chaser is indeed wrong cause thats his left arm that has the tattoo, not the right arm. It would be right if it was on the right arm lol....

[@kyote1089]

So you just recorded the same video back to back, for what? The time length? The money? 🤔

[@durtydeedsREI]

glyphomancer...wtf

[@6tiple6ix6afia]

whole lotta whales in this one

[@thisscreensucks]

Wow. Some of those artists are really dumb. I'm shocked....there were a handful who had to step by step think about which arm it is and which letter is by the wrist. Then at the end the one chick acts like she's teaching the audience something really complicated when she EXPLAINS WHAT A MIRROR DOES.
