I have had a lot of negative experiences with artist who just don't want to tattoo on black skin, and I thought I had finally found an artist I can trust. She had tattooed me twice when everything started going on in June, she was making posts that said she stood with Black Lives Matter and that she saw how the tattoo world treated black people and was firm on going against it. I booked an appointment with her again for two more went well but I noticed she didn't post the work to her social media like she does with her other work. I assumed maybe she forgot and didn't think much of it. A couple weeks later she posts some flash art she has and I fall in love with one and tell her I want it, we book an appointment right then and all is well. Until a week later I see her tattoo the same design on someone else. This could be my ignorance but I had kind of assumed that design was mine? I dont say anything about it and decide I still like the design and no tattoo is really original anyway. Then something kind of scary happens, she tattoos someone who was positive for COVID the same week of my appointment so naturally she lets me know and says she will reschedule. I get three calls and texts informing me my appointment is cancelled but nothing about rescheduling. At this point she knows she's negative and is back in the shop tattooing and has still not rescheduled me. I've reached out twice and she's asked me what times work something I've told her three times now but no response for an appointment. At this point I'm confused and kind of sad, all I want is to find an artist who tattoos black skin and sees me as being just as valuable as there white clients. Am I being dramatic? What would you guys do?":{"0":"So I posted them on my profile you can just click on my name to see them","1":"I'm not really sure how to respond with pictures here lol it's not letting me I suppose I could make a new post for it?","2":"Thank you, and yeah that's not the problem I have and all have healed great and have had no issues.","3":"Thank you. I'm gonna take everyone's advice and be more direct with her hopefully we can reach some common ground but if not like you said Yelp is there for a reason.","4":"Thanks for your input. I already have tattoos and have never had any of the issues you described.","5":"Thank you, it sucked to see someone else with the design I thought I bought","6":"No problem! And thank you! I hope to find someone solid soon too","7":"Yes! I've been told I'm to dark to and thag the art won't show up. I've been told my design ideas are to big for the skin tone I have. I'm in the US and there's a clear divide. When I'm researching an artist I will rarely see any posts or picture of any work they've done in darker skin it's very disheartening.","8":"Thank you!","9":"So normally when she has posted her flash art she'll say available and once someone books an appointment she'll cover it with the word sold. But she didn't do that with mine"}}
