Tattoos We'll Never Forget | Tattoo Artists React

When tattooers look back at their careers and the thousands of tattoos that they’ve created, the past may seem like a blur as they try to remember what they’ve done. But there’s always one that springs to the top of their mind. It could be a touching tribute they did for someone or it could be a cartoon character doing some truly disgusting things. The point is, that it’s unforgettable. For the season finale of Tattoo Artists React, we asked our crew to tell us about their most memorable tattoo.
Which of your tattoos do you remember more than the others? Why? Let us know in the comments.
Inked has rounded up all of your favorite tattooers for another season of Tattoo Artists React. This season we’ll be asking them about the first tattoo that they ever did, what they think about name tattoos and we’ll find out if they can identify celebrities by their tattoos. You’ll watch them rip into some of the worst tattoos on Earth and laugh until your sides out as they tell us about the worst clients they’ve ever had to deal with. It’s going to be a season filled with excitement, hilarity and even the occasional tear. New episodes will be posted every Friday.

TLDR: He went to Richmond for an Expo, sex workers frequented a certain floor, he described a bunch of sex acts, he blacked out (probs drunk), woke up in the trunk of his friend's car two hours away from Richmond because in his black out state he wanted to be in the trunk, and later realized he had a new tattoo. Turns out, a buddy of his did it. He was kind of all over the place, but I speak Josh Payne.
