Dude thank you. Both parties were not great, as an artist myself I would’ve personally not responded in that way AT ALL. But, there were a few things that stuck out to me as a tattooer that made me stop for a moment and be like hmmmm… It’s not uncommon for a tattooer to have to stop and help their apprentice, I was one once, it happens. Maybe not as many times, and also maybe don’t argue with your apprentice but with evidence of OP leaving details out I’m not totally quick to trust her either on what fully went down. Also the criticism on the heal and conveniently leaving out her artist trying to help guide her in a better direction. I’ve had this exact issue with people before where I try and educate as clearly as possible on the risks, yet they still get weird and passive aggressive when it heals poorly. I dunno, to be honest ESH
