There was a case where a client didn't follow the after - care instructions properly. They went swimming right after getting a new tattoo. As a result, the tattoo got infected, and the client blamed the artist for it. But in reality, it was the client's own negligence. This kind of situation can be really frustrating for tattoo artists as their reputation is at stake.
Some tattoo artists have horror stories about clients who haggle over the price right in the middle of the tattoo session. It's really unprofessional and can be very distracting. One artist said a client started arguing about the price when he was halfway through a large back piece tattoo. It made the whole process very unpleasant.
A client once showed up drunk to their tattoo appointment. They were very unruly and kept moving around while the artist was trying to work. This not only made it dangerous for the client as the tattoo needle could cause more harm, but also made it impossible for the artist to create a clean and accurate tattoo. In the end, the artist had to stop the session and reschedule, which was a waste of time for both parties.
One horror story is about a client who asked for a simple flower tattoo. The tattoo artist started, but halfway through, the tattoo gun malfunctioned and left a big, jagged mark on the client's skin that wasn't part of the design. It was a nightmare to fix.
There were a few novels about tattoo artists that were recommended. Among them, the brother chapter of " Old Age Lie Gou " was a novel that described the love story between an oculist and a tattoo artist. In addition," The Affection " was a story about the female lead, Su Yan, and the tattoo shop owner, Qin Yi. In addition, Tattooed Fraud and Burning Totem were also tattoo-related fantasy novels. However, these search results did not provide specific information about the popular novels about tattoo artists. Therefore, I don't know which tattoo artist novels are popular.
Another bad experience was the pain during the healing process. The inner lip is a very sensitive area. One person had so much pain that they couldn't eat properly for days. It was constantly throbbing and they had to deal with swelling as well. Also, because it's in the mouth, there was a constant risk of infection due to the presence of bacteria in the mouth. They had to be extra vigilant with oral hygiene to avoid any complications.
Sure. A client had a very specific design in mind. They showed the tattoo artist a picture of what they wanted. But the artist completely misinterpreted it. Instead of a beautiful, detailed flower, the artist ended up creating something that looked like a child's scribble. The client was horrified and there was a huge argument about what could be done to fix it. Eventually, the artist had to offer a discount on a cover - up tattoo, but the client was still very unhappy with the whole experience.
Sure. There was this one tattoo artist who had a client who wanted a tiny butterfly tattoo on their ankle. But when the artist started, the client was so nervous that they kept flinching. Every time they flinched, the tattoo line went a bit wonky. In the end, the butterfly looked more like a drunken moth. The artist and the client just laughed it off.
