I’m a tattoo artist and I’ve had a few people drift off lately. As a professional, I actually take it as a compliment because it means they’re relaxed, but I’m curious, do people think we hate it? Ask me anything about the shop ‘green flags’ or ‘red flags’ you’ve been too afraid to ask your artist!

    I promise he was just worried you’d passed out! It’s funny because being that relaxed is actually the best-case scenario for us, it means your body isn’t fighting the process. Next time, maybe just tell your artist, 'Hey, I’m probably going to doze off, don’t panic if I close my eyes!
