Bit of a different post on this cloudy Thursday. Its a bit of a "Dalton rant", and if you know, you know 😅
☆☆☆

I usually try to brush off most comments about tattooing regarding how we will look one day. Most of us who are tattooed in many places didn't really take that into account, nor is it a factor when we think on why we got tattooed.

I just get extra peeved when people make it about women, their bodies & beauty, and their own autonomy. Especially when they walk in my shop and start telling me we (tattooers and apparently CP residents) are all bikers & degens, and that women dont look good with tattoos all over their bodies.

Today, I had that interaction from a woman. In the shop. Walked in right off the street to be a....nnoying.

I was left stunned when she was aghast I had tattooed my wife, let alone that my wife has tattoos. Its been a good minute since a random pi**ed me off, but that one got me.

I want to say the problem lies with people being crappy & ignorant. However, I'll stick to the ignorant and offer a resource to anyone who wants to get to know just how important women are, have been, and will be to tattooing.

Whether it was the trailblazers of their time, like Maud Wagner or Irene Libarry, or whether they were circus performers, models, or canvases, like Cindy Ray, we are here now because of their contributions.

How will you look when you're old?

Probably like an older version of you. That's it. Your worth is not tied to the tattoo aging alongside your skin and bones. That is beauty, and it is a privilege to age.

I have plenty of resources in the shop that I am always happy to share if youre ever curious about tattoo history, women in tattooing, or just want to see cool old stuff.

I hope you find these photos as incredible as I do.

Hey folks,

I wanted to take a minute to show you around the shop a bit. Taking some stock of where we were last year at this time. What a journey!
