'This Thot Pocket Just Kissed My Cheek' & More Crazy Client Stories | Tattoo Artists React

Look, people of Earth. This is the 15th time we've made a video of crazy client stories, and somehow our panel of tattoo artists still have them. And they get more insane every time we do this. Y'all need to stop acting like maniacs in the tattoo shop! Or, don't, because we love to hear the stories. We've got people taking their clothes off, people having trouble controlling their bodily functions, folks falling asleep and refusing to wake up and much, much more. Enjoy!
Welcome to Season 15 of Tattoo Artists React!
At this rate, we’re pumping out seasons of Tattoo Artists React faster than those “Now That’s What I Call Music'' psychopaths. This time around, we’ve brought back some of your favorite characters to share their ridiculous stories, per your requests. We also had the chance to sit down with some folks for the very first time. This season you’ll watch us tackle the big questions, tell some silly tales and react to this thing the kids seem to love called TikTok.

What's the craziest thing you've ever seen somebody do in a tattoo shop?

[@pretendimfunny309]

Was getting my first tat, the shop is across the street from a bar (the tat shop and the bar have a "friendly" rivalry) middle of winter, things get spicy and suddenly there is a giant (violent) snowball fight between the two...ends up with some broken windows, dented cars, and snow all over my new ink lol, good times

[@jimthompson9992]

Told this before but the strangest thing I saw was the little girl who kept squirting liquid butter in her mouth every few seconds...the whole time she was in the shop and getting her tattoo. Said she just loved the taste and texture...made me wonder.

A couple of girls started screaming at every single guy in the shop and demanded only the women tattoo them, basically they were modern day feminists, hilariously before all the guys jumped them including myself, the female tattoo artists just leaped over the desks and went ham on them😂 truly 10/10 would tattoo there again, what a fantastic group of individuals.

[@lyndsycarson8302]

I feel like people don’t understand that a tattoo shop is a professional establishment 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's shocking 😱

Right? I get it that some people still think tattoos are rebellious and everything but that doesn't mean you just go into someone's workplace and be insane.

The fuck is wrong with that lady who kept tattooing and LEFT a passed out client? It could have been a serious medical emergency. Super irresponsible.

[@smolllllsss514]

I need a video about their best clients. Most memorable client stories but it’s for good reasons 😂

[@medievalpipehitter1821]

Remind me to NEVER get tattooed by Carmen. Heart attack? Stroke? Seizure? Nah, lemme just finish the tattoo and LEAVE MY CLIENT IN DISTRESS because I have tickets to a show.

[@phunkyphresh3799]

Literally sounded like an OD. Damn well could’ve been a death rattle with lungs filling up with liquid.

[@lelamilla3721]

Was likely a heroin overdose

[@sophiefrench4547]

Agreed! I was shocked she even carried on tattooing. Most people won't tattoo an unconscious person but she just seems to think as long as they aren't dead it's ok. Wtf!

[@luka2507]

Ya bit of a red flag

[@nikno36]

That's what I was thinking too isn't it like a big no no to tattoo a passed out person?

[@Jenniiiiiii92]

Wait....she tattooed someone who was unconscious. Then couldn't wake her up so she just left her. How is that woman still tattooing. That's wrong and unethical.

[@minicat3640]

Once after getting tattooed, my tattoo artist took her pants off and started cleaning her own new tattoo 😂. That's as crazy as it gets for me, thank god.

[@Pancakes4dindin]

[@presidentanp]

The edit of Bernie Sanders and New York sitting on that couch 5:21 cracked me up!

[@0blivvy8]

Carmen's story just has me goin wtf? So where was the couple's toddler when they were in the bathroom together for too long? Cuz if he was in there with them why would they be knocking on the door saying they couldn't be in there together? Then the girl passes out and she continued to tattoo her?! Then left her there. They couldn't wake her up for 45 mins and never called the paramedics? She was probably ODing on heroin. Good thing she didn't die! I hope that poor kid is ok since no one gave a f*ck about his safety either.

[@sararobinson6571]

Wow. I’ve never known a tattoo shop to work on a drunk client

[@SuperSizeMe]

"You had that one lady who passed gas" Me: 🤣 "Then the next day she OD'd" Me: 👁👄👁

[@andrewkowalski9488]

The heart nipple story (4:40) once you notice your client is drunk you shouldn't tattooed her. Yes she could've sued you for negligence.

[@DaveWraptastic]

So happy my country has all these rules in place and permits and stuff. If there is any sign you are drunk/high or even hungover they kick you out instantly and you have no right to a refund.

[@ccleasimone]

That’s exactly what I thought, idk why that girl seemed so comfortable telling that story as if she wasn’t borderline committing a crime lol

[@Pancakes4dindin]

@@DaveWraptastic its up to the individual shop and has very little to do with federal regulations. If a tattoo artist is going to tattoo a drunk person they're going to do it regardless of any regulations or "permits"

[@zacharymorin4634]

alot of street shops stay open till late in the night when they're around bars, they wouldn't if it was actually illegal

[@holleyiverson966]

“Thot pocket.” I’m gonna start sayin’ that now lol 💀

[@barbaracamara9991]

[@wheelycrossing2525]

why would you continue to tattoo someone if they passed out..... like I really wanna know wtf

[@wheelycrossing2525]

This is not a normal story, that was not okay.

[@keiracogdell4673]

I was thinking the same thing! Call someone & stop tattooing, holy fuck

[@SharkysParadise]

come check us out! More well edited tattoo content!

[@MASTURBIKER]

Uuummmmm sounds like some irresponsible tattooists here as well, I thought it was not acceptable to tattoo people under the influence of alcohol or drugs and definitely not if they are passed out? I guess money is more important than the customers safety huh?

[@gamerzay69]

You sir, are mistaken lol

[@stopsign8265]

@@gamerzay69 amazing response. Enlightening, even.

[@Luoshe]

I feel like some of these artists lack some common sense, like turn away drunk, high, passed out amd sick people perhaps? I get there’s this rough and tough attitude about tattooing but at least have the decency to turn away people that aren’t okay for the sake of their work and the shops reputation.

[@christinecannibal844]

[@nonoticarly8778]

Uh so you're tattooing drunk people? Isn't that one of the biggest no nos? How is this a crazy client story? They shouldn't even be clients!! Otherwise, Editors brining their A game as usual

[@ashdragon4000]

Or the one that said her client passed out so she finished the tattoo and THEN tried to wake her up??

[@sydeLPS]

@@ashdragon4000 That one really surprised me! Kinda funny in concept but you're not actually supposed to finish the tattoo and just leave her there!! The fact that it took her husband so long to wake her up definitely concerns me

[@rachelturner9820]

I haven't been tattooed there but I get the vibe the NY tattoo scene is very crazy (la too) lots of expensive shops but lots of street shops too. Not that it's any excuse v shocking usually you sign a waiver too

[@phunkyphresh3799]

Really fucked up, should’ve rejected her on the spot. No wonder she didn’t sit well, shouldn’t have even started on her. Tattooing drunk people is a liability, you literally could get sued for doing that to a blackout drunk person as well as having them sign the waiver. Drunk people can’t consent. Like damn this tattooer is brain dead.

[@rockinonthemove]

@@rachelturner9820 you’re kinda right. some tattoo shops just don’t give a fuck. i’ve watched wasted people walk in and get tatted before with no problem smh. i’ve also only signed a waiver once out of the five times i’ve gotten tatted and that one was the worst one

Lol I said fuck it, let’s rock it, where do you want it? Her: down there. Me: oh your foot Her:no , my lady part Me: (thinking well , if there’s a better day than today feb 14, why not) We placed the stencil over the entrance to “Elmer’s" kingdom lol , mid tattoo she tells me it’s her bday, and she’s doing this for him. 10mins into the tattoo her phone rings, she has him on speaker calling from jail lol , he starts talking to me via speaker on how he appreciates me doing this for him......(ummmm. Ok) lol I tell him I appreciate her paying one of my bills and laugh. Later after finishing it, she mentions how they’ve never met, but been pen pals for a yr, and plan to get married when he gets out in 3yrs (2now) People do wild shit #lupotattoos
