Tattoo TV

[MarsBarsAreShrinking]

Does anyone else enjoy watch tattoo programmes? I love them! They're mostly a bit naff and cheesy but I can't get enough lol.

Tattoo Fixers - marvellous; here let's cover your tiny 1"x1" tattoo with a whole sleeve. I love it!
Tattoo Disasters - recently discovered this. Really quite good actually. Shows tattooing in a more realistic light that Tattoo Fixers I think... people tapping out, people having laser treatment and how painful that is. There was a young girl on an episode we watched the other day who was almost covered in Rhianna tattoos (copies of her actual tattoos and portrait ones too); that was pretty 'wow'.
LA Ink / Miami Ink - bit dated now but I still love watching them. Have to watch Miami Ink when H is out though as he has an irrational dislike of Ami James ("that arrogant git", as he calls him) and can't bear to watch him!

There was another one on last year, some sort of competition with Jay from Tattoo Fixers but we didn't like that for some reason, couldn't get into it.

Anyone else or am I the only one?

No I love watching them.I agree about tattoo fixers, tiny butterfly and you end up with a huge portrait.

I do like Jay but I love Alice, she's so funny.

We love Alice too in our house, she's so lovely... would love to have a tattoo from her.

Love watching tattoo fixers although I think most of their stuff is pretty rubbish I/e let’s cover something small with something massive and usually dark colours except for Alice who’s work is usually very bright. Think I like her the best and felt sorry for her when she made the error in Roman numerals in the teacup tattoo. Addictive telly me thinks.

Do you not watch Ink Master? I bloody love Ink Master. Of course you get the really awful ones but mainly the standard is pretty high. Only problem is that is has made me far too conscious of technical issues with tattoos and now I don’t trust anyone to tattoo me!

Just Tattoo of Us

Can someone confirm to me that they are really temporary ones? Tis the worst show I have ever seen.

Bloody awful. And I like tats. Came by it via Joel Mchale taking the piss out of it on his netflix show.

Love all of them! Especially Ink Master. I was at a water park yesterday and spent a lot of time secretly critiquing the tatts on display (lots of dodgy line work!).

I have no tattoos....just can't get enough of the tv shows!

I don’t have any either yet - since becoming obsessed with IM I’m way too critical. Unless Kelly Doty or Sausage can do it, I’m never getting one ;)

I love Just Tattoo Of Us and Tattoo Fixers but agree with everything that's been said on here!

Tattoo fixers is sooooo bad! The artists are all terrible, especially sketch! They just churn out poor quality work all of the time! Not to mention steal other artists designs! It's an insult to tattoo artists.....especially just the tattoo of us! Ink master however is a great show, there is a lot of highly talented artists that go on there! I really recommend that! Xxx
