Tattooing Trends That Will Make You Cringe

[@Jacobowitness]

Kirk let me out of the basement my hands hurt from tattooing the same rose

[@OctoBear88]

Don’t forget to puts the lotion on the skin, or else you’ll get the hose AGAIN.

[@Jacobowitness]

@ help me!

[@drinkdraincleaner]

more roses, NOW!

Sending Love from the other side of Kirk’s Basement 💪🏽🔥🔥😂😂🥰🥰

[@jayhari1713]

Lmfao hahahahahahaha ☠️

[@treavorwhitlock5606]

Guy removes his nostrils but decided a blacked out face was a bridge too far....

[@ScamLikely9327]

As a freckled faced person I think it’s insane that anyone is tattooing fake ones. Like they kinda fade in the winter and get more prominent in the summer. Good luck with your purple year round freckles I guess

[@salems_lot]

this!! i forget i have freckles during the winter cause most of them mostly fade abit😂

[@AussieMarcel]

That dude with the red flames / dots on his face looks barely 20 years old and being that young and deciding to blast your face is a wild decision. I purposefully waited 10 years from 18 to 28 before deciding to get my neck done. I said to myself, "If you still want to get your neck done in 10 years time, do it." I hit 28 and still wanted it done so went through with it and was thankful to give myself that gulf of time to think about my choice.

[@SAINTLAURENTPAPI]

@@AussieMarcel and to help people who may not have time; paint it on, draw it on & it will feel the same visually seeing your body change ;; Hope this helps , Love and Peace my people 💙🤍💙🤍🤲🏽🤲🏽🤲🏽

[@Hana.Behl-Lecter]

I feel the same--I'm not sure I'll ever get my neck done, but I am still waiting on my hands despite being 30 with a career. I can't imagine getting anything so visible that young. If I had, I'm sure I'd be regretting it now.

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

Freaking wise at 18!

[@deltasaves]

I am seeing so many folks early 20s at best tattooing their face and it worries me. They are doing so much so quick and Im Hearing they hate all the work by the time they are 25-30. I just recently have given thought about doing my neck (past the small stuff behind my ears). Top of my hands aren't done yet. Seeing people half my age spending every dime they have on job stoppers is wild af

[@Lilredcupcake]

I used to pierce my face with safety pins and piercing earrings. I would never put a tattoo on my face. I have them everywhere else. Not your face! It's wild that alot of my friends are getting blackout tattoos. I have flowers, cupcakes, bugs, fish. I have a hand tattoo that I love. Don't get drunk and make bad choices I suppose.

[@hannahtennisfit6159]

I feel terrible for hairline girl. And the fact the micro blading person felt the need to point out her uneven hairline, rude!

[@piperatoms5926]

😭 Yeah breaks my heart.. Only fix I can think of is training her hairline center part to be a side part to cover it instead of laser it off 😞 her shitty tatter can’t even say artist did her so so dirty. I pray 🙏 she can find peace with it.

[@loserplanet]

It's so sad! She should invest in laser honestly. I don't think she thought "oh I'm agreeing to a FACE tattoo." Almost preyed on.

[@__unwavering]

Who has an even hairline anyway

[@Sahmantha40]

Dude, am I crazy or did she just need to part her hair on her right side? The thick side would cover the thin. Done.

[@itsjuliescottyay]

I first noticed I had an uneven hairline when I was 13. I have bangs right now, and when I’m not wearing bangs, I just part my hair on one side and it fixes the problem. Having an uneven hairline is more common than having a perfect hairline. If any eyebrow person ever said to me “I’m also a tattoo artist. Do you want me to fill in that hole on your head?“ I would get up and walk out.

[@YiannosAshiotis]

"Do I think it's stupid? yes, obviously, because I am a normal human being"... freakin legend...don't you ever change bro

[@keviiinramaaaage7650]

I cracked up 😂

[@lacroix3931]

That girl with the hairline tattoo should have gotten bangs in the first place. She could also solve it by getting bangs now. Very easy solution

[@BurgundyMermaid]

Regarding the woman with the line that supposedly “compliments” her body, or whatever, one of the things I love most about Kirk-besides the fact that he has basic common sense that I rarely see these days-is that he has the guts to say out loud that the emperor has no clothes.

[@lout9231]

bruh that self blackout has some insanely saturated black in there it looks incredible. The blackout sleeve earlier with the grey on top looks insane as well such amazing work

[@Happytravellerkimmy]

I feel sort of bad for the hairline tattoo client, but it was an easy fix: part your hair different. I have a weird hairline so I just part it on the side. Nobody cares.

[@thesaurusakasickakatheomc7688]

I went to school with a couple kids named Apple Seed and Cotton Seed. I would never name my kid either of those names... unless my last name was Seed. Sometimes shit is so dumb it wraps back around and becomes smart again.

[@suzubee9602]

I knew someone named King Bee, his last name is actually Bee. I'm ngl I really like his name for some reason

[@darksu6947]

At least they didn't choose to name the kid.........Rapeseed 😂

[@AlannahP-c2p]

Yeah I went to primary school here in Ireland with a Scottish kid his name is literally ‘Stuart little ‘ yes he got bullied now he’s gay and goes by his mothers maiden name lol which isn’t little

[@Lilredcupcake]

​@@AlannahP-c2pOH, with his little buttons for tires. Poor bean.

[@hellekimery9537]

Nice to hear that you feel uncomfortable when tattooing a “ sensitive” area,you are the kind of tatooo artist I’d want to do that ! :)

[@nieslychane]

4:25 it's Russian for "in the name of love", which is a nice enough message, so I don't know why you would squish and stretch the words to make them illegible lmao

[@DaveA.L-b1f]

to turn it into a secret message, i assume

[@barbarahallowell2613]

I really LOVE the idea of a secret message. I think the tattoo turned out pretty cool. 😊

[@over-educated-sp]

I don’t often watch tattoo reviews, but when I do, Kirk is the Dirka Dirk, Dirka dude who I enjoy watching!

[@Hana.Behl-Lecter]

Unpopular opinion, but I actually kinda like the distorted message as a concept. Kind of an cool way to get something meaningful to you personally that's a little more interesting than just getting "faith" in a basic script.

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

This is basically a sigil! 😀 Take a word or phrase, remove vowels and double letters, then combine what you have left in a symbol. (;

[@rorydonaldson2794]

Maybe I'm old school in my mind set but if you're not covered in ink, you shouldn't be getting some areas done. Face, hands, neck/throat. It's insane to me that you aren't covered and decided to get chicken pox all over the face.

[@franciscogutierrez818]

I love this guy's energy. Entertaining commentary

[@IWantU2Know]

“And then we started Polk dotting faces, ya know! “ 😂😂😂

[@fiendant]

Bless her. Asking for tattoo removal cream.

[@EmmaGoldmanlovesyou]

I think there’s like fading creams, that prep you for laser removal.. I hope that’s what she meant lmao

[@pissass.6969]

I think it's like the cream you put on before getting it laser removed , shit wording at worst

[@deltasaves]

She did 0 research and should have for bangs.

[@samliveshere88]

11:56 a hair transplant would acutally be perfect now they're usually lightener that the hair thickness so the tat wil actually help blend it

[@moneycreatestaste]

the line mimics the curves of her body, if they drew harsh angles that might compliment a really angular form. It makes sense to me. When she turns her arm you see the way the lines flow, I think that's beautiful, if she dances slowly it would look like rippling water. Having the tattoo changes the way you see the form in 3d - it gives your eye a clear reference point.

[@insfieldtrip]

exactly

[@lucidxthexdream-4827]

that fox deer was kinda cool lmao

[@ohnoes7032]

i totally agree. It was pretty and well executed

[@Neytjie]

Get well soon Kirk, not cause of the obvious cold, but because you've got some sick tats ❤ God bless my man 👌

[@benisputterr]

That guy tattooing that girls chest and posting it online is such a creep

[@Kasia237]

The pronunciation Glasgow just killed me 😂😂😂

[@briarelyse5136]

Glassjaw Scotland, sounds like fighting words to me!

[@Bxoo0420]

12:28 -- poor girlll. Omg. One thing to do; Fringe💔 that is soo heartbreaking. I think lazer is the only fix💔

[@FinnySpam]

laser would also remove any hair, iu would think, not sure if tattoo lasers are the same as hair removal lasers. she may just have to hoep and pray it fades.

[@ErvinandMFantasyFootball]

Idk how I got here but I love it. Keep it up brother.

[@CHXFIT95]

The second one looks like a rash

[@nexusobserve]

do agree it's weird to be filming underboob close up just because it's a tattoo?? people have no morals

[@deltasaves]

Only creeper dudes hoping to see that IRL will go to him. Like softcore porn ain't gonna attract women to him. Unfortunately, that chick only has one other underboob to tattoo, so he's gonna be out of gimmicks soon

[@jdsevereide]

I want that goldfish. And that last blackout the artist did on himself took my breath away.

[@annafink2245]

I think any artist tattooing a person's face under 30 should be shamed out of the industry. Yes, personal responsibility, but come on...same for plastic surgeons who do these insane procedures.

[@BaDazai]

1:54 this could have been a makeup look, it didn't need to be done in ink and permanently 😅

[@idahodisneybookdragon8950]

Get well soon Kirk. We all appreciate you . Your videos are so interesting and educational.

[@Gooberpil3]

The chicken pox one is gonna look like he got shot with buck shot after a year or 2.

[@Stuck_on_pause]

I couldn't help but notice that the hairline girls eyebrows look really bad too. That artist is very questionable!

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

7:00 Thank you for calling that crap out!!

[@kylie257]

Feel better Kirk ❤

[@michaelmcdonnell5998]

I live twenty miles from Glassjaw Scotland 😂😂😂 It's pronounced Glaz-go!

[@FrankCastle-qk8od]

Farrk laser hirts so badddd tooo. Had it on my arm and back but on the face would be a whole nother level of pain

[@piperatoms5926]

I think there’s a chance that black out face guy just got paid as a promotion ad type thing for lasers. I know nothing but my brain tells me that’s more likely but I’m probably wrong g 😅

[@crazyinclarence5531]

To the girl with the hairline tattoo either part your hair on the right to cover it or bangs.

[@TasteTheD]

Feel like i met the chick who did the german squiggly line. If it's who i think it is she's an awesome person, but I'm with you on the explanation of the tattoo being wild.

[@_Dark222Angel_]

I hate it

[@EliShh-n2n]

It's her body. As long as she's happy that's all that matters.

[@Anne_Onymous]

8:50 Why are some artists like this able to pack in beautiful, uniform, saturated color and others can't ever pull this off?? Is it the ink? The depth?

[@deltasaves]

A total skill issue.

[@cargobell9174]

Loved the voice, loved the vibe

[@Pierrue]

0:52 Ngl I actually kinda like this tattoo. It’s cool how it works off the existing freckles and I really love the design closer to the ear. It would probably look less strange if it was a color closer to the skin tone since it does look like a vampire facial with the bright red.

[@extremelynormalperson]

Once it heals, it's going to look like a skin rash lmao

[@kijanailis]

That second tattoo dude looks like someone trying to cover up severe acne scars...

[@captinbunt]

You are awesome Kirk, love your energy and we seem to agree on what is cool and what is wack. great. Thanks

[@potayto]

Hey thats my tattoo 😂spooderman

[@aggresivefishtanx3763]

I got stuck in the endless loop of laundry

[@Zuxiia]

Pretty sure the 'compliment my bodyshape' wasn't meant in a way to enhance the body shape in any way, but meant it was hand drawn on so that it flowed with her body specifically, since everyone is shaped different.

[@TREE4Swing]

The line tattoo I actually like but then she goes to put more tattoos around it and I think that completely takes away the minimalist elegant look of it and it will just be a distraction from other tattoos. Like the complementing the body thing this would be a cool idea if you're a dancer being someone who uses the lines of their body to express.

[@charlenemack7040]

I absolutely hate the tattoos of Ed Sheeran Pete Davidson Justin Bieber… Dozens upon dozens of little tiny hearts, and flowers, and cartoon characters, and buckets, and vehicles, and words, all these little itty-bitty teeny tiny crappy tattoos look childish and cheap. I also hate all tattoos on the hands and on the fingers… do you really need to number your fingers??? come on people. 😮

[@BrandonCoast]

Some wild tattoos dude!

[@heinrichmuller7974]

it seems that most of these tattoos fall into the *"it looked amazing in mind"* category ...

[@charlenemack7040]

At 10.40 the girl had her eyebrows micro bladed… One of them is higher than the other. Am I the only one that noticed that?

[@Anne_Onymous]

[@AuntieThree]

Best black out I've ever seen so far

[@beautifullybroken4879]

Do black out tats age well?

[@angiehauver7451]

The guy at the beginning with the hot pink side burns dot thingy, I get. My best friend had acne scars that destroyed her self worth. She got a blue green like the pink one and it totally masked the scars. Maybe you should think why someone got something instead of, eww that’s horrible. There is nothing on your face to hide that face. I think you need a strong reminder to be a little kind. But then, there goes the content.😮

Maybe the second one had freckles and wanted to incorporate them into something artistic? I think that's alright, actually. The placement of the tattoos work. What it will look like as the hair recedes - I don't know. Cross that bridge when it comes.

Body shape????? Got news for this women.....our body's change shape over the years. I have an Orca coming up out of water. The water is my pelvic line. 30 + years and two children later it looks nothing like it did. I love my tattoo ( 1 of 5). The blacks are blue Grey. My tattoo artist at that time was incredible. I have a 3.5 in long by 1 inch wide horrible scar there. He took on the challenge and was amazing but it is effected and twisted from a lot of years, gravity and kids. Her comment won't mean crap in 20 to 30 years. Good luck. Same with the writing twisted....good luck
