'I'm From An Era When They Would Burn Down Your Shop' Tattoo Horror Stories | Tattoo Artists React

From an artist deliberately mixing a coworkers ink with hot sauce to someone dying in the shop after receiving a tattoo, the industry is full of rumors and stories that may or may not be true. We asked the artists of Season 23 to tell us the most horrifying things they had heard of or experienced during their time in the industry, and their answers influenced us to write this disclaimer:

INKED MAGAZINE DOES NOT ENDORSE, CONFIRM OR DENY THE VALIDITY OF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING MATERIAL. TATTOOING IS A SAFE PRACTICE THAT IS REGULATED BY LAW AND PERFORMED BY PROFESSIONALS.
