It would be irrelevant unless they are still tattooing now with modern, current inks/machines/styles/etc because their old experience is completely obsolete and pretty worthless for modern times. Sure, they can give some basic general advice, but for most of the stuff it would be irrelevant. It's a lot like baby boomers giving young people advice today. Almost anything they could say as advice is entirely worthless because nothing today works similarly to how it did when they were doing it. Being older and having experience doesn't mean that the experience is still useful when times have changed so much.

I've always thought the argument of oh "that'll look like shit in 20 30 years" is a dumb argument. That literally applies to everything. Your body changes over time no matter how well it's done it'll look different and fade at the end of the day it's ink in the skin, some of it will break down over time. Literally anything you get will be different in 30 years, a car, home, couch, phone. All of those when you get them new are relevant to the time and wear down and trends will have changed. But that's life. I would also argue that most older people don't care what it looks like 3 decades later because its about the story and its expected to be faded

Ok so now that I'm 45 i'm basically getting all my tattoos I got at age 18-20 either covered up or reworked. The lines are really faded and breaking up, the lighter colors(whites, yellows)are all gone while the darker colors (reds, greens, blues) are still there but really light. Nothing in life is the same after 30 years. The funny part is thinking you'll actually be into the tattoos you got at a young age when you're older. I've only kept a small portion of my teenage tattoos reworked while covering most of them up now. Not because the artist did a bad job originally but because I just wasn't into the subject matter that much anymore. The things you find cool at 19 you probably won't be so hardcore into at 43.

Bold will hold and black can stay black. My extensive coverage is a mix of Polynesian tribal and black & grey, all completed when I was 40-43. I am now 66. I knew color would fade so I went black. I think it depends on the artist's skill (and my choice to not use color). My tribal leg tattoos are solid black and have never even been touched up. My realistic sea turtle still looks awesome. On the other hand I have a 6" Japanese koi that was outlined by a different artist that has mushed out a lot. I am convinced that artist skill in finding the right layer in the skin is critical to longevity, and avoiding sun.

I never knew some of my grandpa's tattoo's had color until I saw a pic of him with one of his ex wives from like 30 years ago. He has a wolf tattoo that was black and gray and it is just a blob of black now haha

3:04 sorry to say but this dude does not give a shit how your tattoo is gonna heal. He just does it for his portfolio. Micro tattoos are never a good idea, it’s never gonna heal well, it’ll look like a blob in 4-5 years, forget 10.

But that person gets a tattoo they love for 4-5 years. I think that point is undervalued in this video.

Miss B well if that makes you satisfied for less than 5 years then that’s great. I’m just giving people a heads up because many people who want that tattoo are gonna be misled into believing that it will last, and then later on get mad at their tattoo artist lol.

The cocky boy acting like his work will look the same in 30 years😂😂 guarantee his work doesn’t look the same even a year later. His realism looks great on Instagram but that rarely means much with all the editing.

Hector Cedillo not sure I understand your comment. Do you not have issue with the heavily edited tattoo photos on Instagram? When your portfolio looks nothing like the tattoo in real life it’s a problem.

Idk, looking at all the other artists, it seems like their shop has some integrity in their work. It's hard to edit each persons profile to make alllll of their work look better than it is in real life. They all have some pretty great work.

I'm a late developer. I only got my first tattoo about 3 years ago when I was already 52. I decided then to go for a nice, simple and bold Maori design. I figured it would still look good in 30 years. So far so good! 👍🏼😉 And I'm with Nikko. I like aged tattoos! 😁

My uncle got a wolf head in black, gray, a little brown and yellow eyes, when he was in his 20’s and now he’s in his 50’s. And even though he has been working in the sun all these years, gets tanned easily, and doesn’t take any care of his tattoo other than what he does to the rest of the body, it still looks beautiful! Even from a distance. The only thing he wants to get fixed, is the color of the eyes, because he wants them to look more piercing than they do. But that’s it - it’s impressive! I

You can usually look at a tattoo and know if it will hold by the outlining and saturation. The person's skin and how they take care of it also matters a lot. Sunscreen!!!

I have a watercolor tattoo with a black outline, in 30 years it may just be the outline with a little purple that looks like bruising- and I’m fine with that, if I want it to look better, I’ll just get a touch-up, it isn’t really a big deal to me
