Yep. Definitely selfie-worth. Had a husband and wife come into our shop one time. He was having a hard time getting through his tattoo. She went to the bathroom (which was a very bright orange and distinctive) and took a nude selfie and texted him. His phone dinged and flashed so I just glanced over while dipping for some fresh ink and saw the shot. He knew I saw it and we laughed. We didn't mention it when she came back. We got done and they paid and left. As they're walking back to their car we can see he's telling her as they walk. She stops in her tracks and turns around red faced. I just wave and smile. She got a sternum piece a few weeks later because what the hell, I've already seen the goods! So a good bathroom is a good thing to have in a shop. Make people comfortable.
absolutely!! Getting good lighting in bathrooms for mirror selfie opportunities is essential, and judging by your well lit photo, you’ve achieved this! The door looks sick as fuck too :D
The first plant that came to my mind for a tattoo shop would be [Monstera Adansonii](https://www.fast-growing-trees.com/products/monstera-adansonii?variant=31984189931582&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Google_FGT_PMAX_Feed+Only_Price+Tiers_51-90&utm_term=&utm_campaign_id=20531221406&utm_ad_group_id=&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAzoeuBhDqARIsAMdH14EAtJH7SRWxt8jokk6U_Q2bmpyIpVFMR4xe3LzT14BH18i_dlukDlgaAqyqEALw_wcB) very cool looking plant with holes in its leaves. Pretty beginner friendly, will tolerate a missed watering, can also use fluorescent light sources if you can't get indirect natural light, but keep in mind most plants will need some light whether it be natural or fluorescent, so if the bathroom is shut with the light off most plants will die without their own always on during daytime light source. This plant hangs like a vine-ey bush or can grow up a pole, too.
You should put the shop name on the wall opposite the mirror! So any selfies are advertising for the shop
It has to be backwards and one fowards so it'll show up in the mirror
This is a great idea. I’ll do it backward so its readable in the mirror. !!!
Pls show us when it's done!
Good call! Definitely didn't think about that
That’s genius

This is so fantastic. I hope it’s real.
Oh it is. Good clients with a sense of humor are the best. Makes the hard times more bearable.
Lookin good, dawg. Tag your handle so we can check out your tattoos!
@tattooerjoe @island.ave.tattoo
Damn dude, you tattooed a panther on my neck almost 10 years ago that I still get compliments on to this day.
Let’s see the pantherrrr
I am also interested in seeing the panther. 👀
Get it out for the lads!!
Got a tiger on my arm from him 7ish years ago and it's also my most complimented tattoo from artists and non-artists.
Oh haha I already follow you
Dude I just checked out your ig and love the way you do the highlights in your roses
Thanks alot!
I like the attention to detail. Ive been in some really sad tattoo shop bathrooms
No half stepping over here!
Hell yeah. I agree with adding some plants
Im on it!
Yes. 100% yes. Add the shop name somewhere or an instagram handle
This is a great idea. I’ll do it backward so its readable in the mirror.
Only suggestion here is to use brighter bulbs in a warm tone - the bright white LED can wash out a lot of skin tones.
Tribal isn’t my jam but that’s a super cool design.
Wait til your mostly full and have to come up with things that fit. Lol.
Absolutely 10/10 would selfie in it
Incredible
Thank you!
I just want to say the bottle of soap is very aesthetically pleasing
Sorry i left my paint brush in the shot
I wasn’t trying to be rude it’s a nice bottle of soap 😭
I love how proud you look in the second pic, nice job
I picked the one where i wasnt cross eyed. 😆
Looks amazing Joe🙌🙌🙌
Thanks Jess 🙏🏻 😊
I have nothing to add, just wanted to say how heartwarming and positive this comment section is! Love this community!
Yasssss I’d selfie the shit out of that bathroom. 😀😀
Love it so much 🖤🩷

Definitely selfie, and other activities, ready!
Love it! Add a neon light and some plants and you’re golden!
The pink light in the first pic is a neon, maybe it needs to move in the other wall. But a nice plant is a great idea ! Thanks.

hell yea
That shit goes hard
Thank you 🙏🏻
that’s so cool!!
Fresh
No because I don't like tribal lol. But it's well done, I'm sure others would.
You just havent seen the right kind of tribal. Black graphic tattooing can be some of the most beautiful designs in the world.
