Tattoo artists explain the biggest green and red flags to look out for when visiting a tattoo shop.Feat. @sraw93

Whether its your first time getting a tattoo, or you're a tattoo veteran, its always important to keep an eye on key details of a tattoo shop before you decide to get a tattoo. What do you think are the biggest things to look out for? ____________________________________________________________ What makes someone want to get a tattoo? I attended the Colorado Tattoo Convention and Expo 2025 on behalf of @creator.process to interview tattoo artists and creatives about the meaning behind tattoos and the creative process that drives tattoo culture. As someone with zero tattoos myself, I’ve always been curious about why people choose to permanently mark their bodies with art. Throughout the convention, I asked artists and attendees what tattoos mean to them — and every answer was completely different.

To immerse myself, I let tattoo artists draw tattoos on me with markers so I could experience what it felt like to walk around as a tattooed person. As the convention went on, I became increasingly covered in artwork. The experience gave me a completely new perspective on tattoo culture, artistic expression, and the connection people have with body art. Every artist had a unique style, philosophy, and reason for tattooing, which made the conversations just as diverse as the artwork itself.

This video is part documentary, part social experiment, and part exploration into the world of tattoo artistry and creativity. Whether you’re considering your first tattoo, already heavily tattooed, or simply fascinated by the culture and artistry surrounding tattoos,

I hope you find these conversations entertaining, insightful, and inspiring. Comment below: What would your first tattoo be — or what does your favorite tattoo mean to you? If you enjoyed the video, make sure to like, subscribe, and share it with someone interested in tattoos, creativity, or art culture.

🏆 PART 2: WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO TATTOO FOR ALMOST 3 DAYS STRAIGHT?! 😳🔥

We’re back with Darren “Sraw” Arellano — @SRAW93 for Part 2 of our conversation at the Regime Sports Cards & Collectibles Show.

After tattooing for 64 HOURS and 30 MINUTES across 12 people, Sraw gave us the details on what really happens during a Guinness World Record attempt.

We talked about the allowed break system, going hours without stopping, switching between clients, staying physically prepared, and what it feels like trying to keep your body and mind going for that long.

And he dropped something big on us… 👀

Sraw plans on going after the record AGAIN. 🏆🔥

Much love to @SRAW93 for taking the time to chop it up with Denver Foos and share the story behind the record.

If you watched Part 1, you already know this one is worth finishing. 💯

We thought we were trolling Pokémon vendors at the Regime Sports Card & Collectibles Show @regimesportscardsncollectibles with “exclusive” replica and custom cards from Out The Box Toy Store… but the troll was on us! 😂🔥

Every collector we spoke with already knew about the cards and they were genuine fan favorites! These Out The Box customs have become a true collectors’ staple in the community.

We even ran into the actual creator who made them for Out The Box! Talk about a full-circle moment. 🙌

Real collectors know! 👀🔥

@sraw93 shares the story of his first tattoo!

What makes someone want to get a tattoo?

@gh.mov visited the Colorado Tattoo Convention to explore the stories, creativity, and meaning behind tattoo culture. As someone with no tattoos, I interviewed artists and attendees, and even let artists cover me in marker tattoos for the day. The experience completely changed my perspective on body art, self-expression, and the people who bring these designs to life.

Part 1 is available on YouTube!

More episodes coming soon ✅
