Season 2 TrailerTattoo Age is back. In Season Two we'll be featuring three vastly different artists from all ends of the tattoo spectrum, and the world, for that matter. First up, on September 12, we have Valerie Vargas, who lives and works in London and is widely know for doing the most beautiful "lady head" tattoos around. Then on October 10 we have Mutsuo, a tattooer from Osaka, Japan, who learned from the great American artists who traveled to the shop where he worked in the early 00s. Mutsuo is known for his ability to flawlessly tattoo in just about any style. The season finale, on November 10, will feature Thom deVita, who started tattooing in New York City in the 60s, when tattooing was illegal in all five boroughs. Thom synthesized his environment into his tattoos and created quite possibly the most uniques style of all time.

Lal Hardy (Vargas Bonus Footage)When we filmed the Valerie Vargas Tattoo Age series, she took us to meet the legendary English tattooer, Lal Hardy. Lal has been tattooing since 1975, is generally considered to be one of the people that elevated tattooing in the UK in the 1980's. Lal is also an amazing story teller, and entertained us with stories for quite some time while we were at his shop, New Wave Tattoo Studio. We were so enamored with Lal's stories, that we kinda got off track, and we talked more about English tattoo history, than Ms. Vargas. What you have here is just a mere snippet of our conversation with Lal.
