He used geometric tattooing to fix his weak spots, and it turned into his whole identity. 🔷🎙️🔥

Jymi Calkins kept it real about his journey: great color work early on, but his line work needed tightening. So he locked in on geometric tattooing, blocked everything else out, started competing, and that’s where it all clicked. Now he’s bringing it full circle, blending the subjects he loves with the geometric and ornamental style he mastered. 🙌✨

Using your weak spots to find your strongest style. That’s the move. Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel!

Whatever is eating up most of your time right now; that’s exactly where you start delegating. 🙌💡

At the Shop Owner Success Summit, Liz Cook gave advice that every shop owner needs to hear: stop trying to do everything yourself. Drowning in emails? Get someone on emails. Spending hours uploading reels? Get someone who actually loves doing that. Because when you put people in roles they’re genuinely into, they stay. And when you force the wrong person into the wrong job, you end up with turnover and starting all over again. 🔥✨

Work smarter. Delegate intentionally. 👀

Tattooing in the Middle East isn’t just happening; it’s growing fast. 🌍🔥🎙️

Alia ElFadaly and Shaun have one of the most eye-opening conversations we’ve had on the show. Studios opening in Dubai and Egypt, a convention coming to Egypt, and a mission to bring tattoo culture back to where it all began: the Pharaohs. 🙌✨

The world thinks tattooing doesn’t exist in the Middle East. They’re wrong. And it’s time to break down those barriers. 👀

Minneapolis in the dead of winter; and 16,000 people still showed up. 🥶🔥🎙️

Throwing it back to this episode of Ink Different Tattoos where Dr. Blasphemy talks about the convention city that surprised him the most. He never expected Minneapolis to be his favorite show of the year, but the energy, the attendance, and the love from that city in freezing temps completely won him over. 🙌✨

Never judge a city by its weather. 😂👀 👇

He didn’t pick tattooing. Tattooing picked him. 🙌🔥💡

At the Shop Owner Success Summit, Chico Cortez took us back to the moment it all started: a guy in a park in Jamaica, Queens, poking people with a pen and charging $50-60 for it in the 90s. The tattoos were bad. Really bad. And people were still paying. 😂

That’s when something clicked for Chico; it wasn’t just about the art. It was the therapy of it. The experience. And that realization changed everything. ✨

Behind every great road warrior is a whole lot of communication and love. ❤️🎙️

Throwing it back to this episode of Ink Different Tattoos where Dr. Blasphemy gets real about how he makes the convention life work with family. From flying out Friday and being home before school let out on Monday, to calling his wife first thing every morning and saying goodnight at 9pm every single night no matter where he is. 🙌✨

The road life is real; but so is the dedication it takes to keep everything together off the road. 🔥

It started with a bad tattoo on her brother’s arm. The rest is history. 😂🎙️🔥

Alia ElFadaly tells the most relatable origin story: convinced her brother to let her tattoo him, it didn’t go great, practiced on her own leg to fix it, and just kept going. Friends, friends of friends, started charging, and one day she looked up and somehow had a studio. 🙌✨

Nobody starts perfect. You just start. 👀

Your shop manager should treat your shop like it’s their own. Anything less isn’t enough. 🙌💡

At the Shop Owner Success Summit, Liz Cook dropped some real talk for shop owners, the people supporting you need to be just as bought into your mission as you are. And if you haven’t sat down lately to figure out your non-negotiables, that’s where you start. 🔥✨

Know what needs to be protected. Make sure your team knows it too. That’s how you build a shop that runs with or without you in the room. 👀
