About this listen
This week on Skin Deep Stories, Montreal tattoo artists and moms Kirsten Diachidos and Melanie Belanger share the tattoo horror stories that make every artist cringe — and every client think twice.
From sketchy tattoo shops to poor hygiene practices, they unpack the biggest red flags to look out for when choosing a tattoo artist or studio. They talk about everything from cleanliness standards and sterile equipment, to spotting fake or AI-generated tattoo photos on social media. (Yes, it's a thing now... and it's fooling people!)
Kirsten and Mel also share real-life stories of tattoo disasters they've witnessed or had to fix, and how to make sure you never end up in one of those situations yourself. It's funny, a little gross at times, and full of useful advice for anyone thinking about getting inked.
If you're serious about getting a tattoo you'll love for life — not regret — this episode will help you separate the true professionals from the pretenders.
