TikTok's viral 'tattoogate' drama blamed on 'communication skills'
TikTok's viral 'tattoogate' drama blamed on 'communication skills'
A tattoo artist is being slammed on TikTok after they charged a client an eye-watering price for changes they made to a design they had done wrong. As a permanent piece of art on your skin, most would agree that you have to be happy with the design of your tattoo given by your artist before going ahead with getting the piece. But, one woman was left shocked after being charged a ridiculous “design fee” by a tattoo artist who had not fulfilled her original request during a consultation, which she was also charged for. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The drama unfolded in a series of TikTok videos by @running_mom_of_boys, who explained what happened. One video has been viewed over 5.3 million times in what has been dubbed “tattoogate”. What is tattoogate? Tattoogate began when the TikToker approached a tattoo artist she liked on Instagram and explained during a non-refundable Zoom consultation (that cost $180) that she wanted a tattoo of a fox running, with some additional flowers in there. The artist, who the TikToker has kept anonymous, explained there were three design fee options $1500 plus tax, $3500 plus tax and $6000 plus tax. She went with the cheapest option, which the artist said would mean she would get one concept drawing and would be able to make one minor change as part of the price. When the artist sent the concept sketch, @running_mom_of_boys claimed it was nothing like she asked for and the tattoo artist said she would have to pay $2260 for a new sketch. The woman explained: “She (the artist) said it was my fault that I wasn’t clear that I wanted a full fox. But these are the two pictures that I sent her – both full fox, both in the same position. I don’t know how much clearer I could have been.” @running_mom_of_boys Part 1 #badbusiness #tattoohorrorstory #worstexperience #storytime #tattooartist #greenscreen In the following videos, the TikToker claimed the artist blamed the mishap on her “communication skills”. The TikToker then shared screengrabs of emails sent between the two of them in which the tattoo artist claimed the design fee was an “optional service”, of which the TikToker claimed she was never made aware. @running_mom_of_boys Part 2 There are like 20 emails, im trying to hit the highlights #badbusiness #tattoohorrorstory #worstexperience #storytime #tattooartist #greenscreen The tattoo artist refused to refund the woman the design fee, the consultation fee or the $1000 deposit she paid ahead of time. Another tattoo artist who saw the drama unfold offered to tattoo the TikToker for free and, in lieu, the client explained she will make a donation to a fox charity instead.

Max Verstappen’s best moments as he wins 2023 F1 world title
Max Verstappen’s best moments as he wins 2023 F1 world title
Max Verstappen has clinched his third world championship. The most one-sided Formula One campaign of recent memory was dominated by the Dutch driver. Here, the PA news agency looks back at six races which fired Verstappen on the road to glory. Bahrain Verstappen opened his championship defence with an ominous performance under the floodlights in Sakhir. He finished 11.9 seconds clear of team-mate Sergio Perez and nearly 40 sec ahead of third-placed Fernando Alonso. George Russell, 55 sec back in his under-performing Mercedes, summed up the mood in the paddock when he chillingly predicted Verstappen’s Red Bull team would win all 22 races this year. Canada Verstappen’s sixth victory from the season’s opening eight fixtures saw him match Ayrton Senna’s tally of 41 victories. A day after taking pole position in the wet, Verstappen reigned supreme in the dry at Montreal’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. Even an early collision with a bird could not stop the flying Dutchman as he drew level with Senna to leave only Lewis Hamilton (103), Michael Schumacher (91), Sebastian Vettel (53) and Alain Prost (51) ahead of him in the record books. “To tie with Ayrton is incredible and I am proud of that but I hope it doesn’t stop here,” he said. “I hope we keep on winning more races.” Belgium Verstappen’s invincible streak continued in the final round before the summer break at Spa-Francorchamps. The triple world champion started sixth following an engine penalty but he took the lead on lap 17 of 44 before crossing the line 22.3 sec clear of his forlorn Red Bull team-mate Perez. Hamilton, who finished fourth, 49 sec back, described his rival’s dominance as like “he is having a smoke and a pancake”. Netherlands Red Bull team principal Christian Horner hailed “untouchable” Verstappen as the best driver in the world after he overcame a chaotic rain-hit race to equal Sebastian Vettel’s record of nine wins in a row. Despite two separate downpours wreaking havoc at the beginning – which left him in 13th place – and conclusion of the 72-lap race in Zandvoort, Verstappen delivered in front of 105,000 expectant fans. At one stage, Verstappen was lapping his home track four seconds faster than Perez and two seconds quicker than anybody else. “Max is in a period of his career where he is just simply untouchable,” said Horner. “I don’t think there is any driver on the grid that would be able to achieve what he is doing in that car.” Italy Verstappen drove his way into the history books by taking his 10th-consecutive victory. He sat behind Carlos Sainz for 14 of the 51 laps at Monza’s Temple of Speed before fighting his way past the Ferrari pole-sitter at the second chicane. From there, the commanding Dutchman never looked back to better the mark he shared with Vettel and become the first driver in F1 to reach double figures for straight victories. However, there were sour grapes over at Mercedes with team principal Toto Wolff calling Verstappen’s remarkable streak “completely irrelevant” and “for Wikipedia” Japan Verstappen’s historic winning run, and Red Bull’s unbeaten season, came to an end in Singapore. But at the next round in Japan, he hit back in emphatic style. He topped every practice session in Suzuka, secured pole, and then won at a canter as Red Bull became the first team ever to win the constructors’ championship with six races to spare.
