These Must-Follow Female Tattoo Artists Are Changing the Game of Ink
Though women are a powerful force in the beauty and skincare industries, that domination hasn’t quite made its way to the world of tattoos. We primarily see male tattoo artists on television shows and tagged in Instagram posts. But with the popularity of stars like Kat Von D and the rise of tiny tatt culture on social media, the world of ink has become a more welcoming place for the ladies. Thankfully, there is a slew of female ink stars that are redefining the entire trade. Feel the girl power and follow these female tattoo artists who are making a name for themselves one tatt at a time.
