While Fawn is on the road to Detroit, Ben and guest Dan Wesley are here

to discuss the process behind getting a unique tattoo and some important

do's and don'ts for your first tattoo.

📺 Inspirational network and courses for tattooers, apprentices, and

collectors @ https://links.reinventingthetattoo.com/starthere - tech powered by https://longevity.tattoonow.com

Check out all of Wes' tattoos and info on his website: https://tatsbywes.com

Join us each week as we blast off through the tattoo universe! We’ll

talk about our own thoughts and inspiration, as tattoo collectors, as

well as the journey of our guests. We’ll delve into everything from

first tattoos, to full body suits, and everything in between. In this

podcast, we will not be talking about how to tattoo, or any technical

tricks of the trade. There are thousands of other platforms just for

that. Here, we talk about tattoos from the collectors point of view.

We’ll share advice for collectors, as well as our specific experiences

from our own tattoo journeys. We want to prepare, and inspire other

collectors. https://www.tattoocollecting.com/community
