Magic Tramp Stamps and Taboo Tattoos | Dark History with Bailey Sarian

Who else wants a Q&A about Bailey's tattoos??

Hello Bailey! Here in the Philippines, we have a 106 year old tattoo artist named Apo Whang Od. In our country, there's a tribe that believes that tattoos were a sign of bravery for men and beauty for women. They put tattoos for each war they fought into. You better check her out.

Speaking as a female tattoo artist, this episode is the absolute best to me. I feel privileged and honored to be able to be a part of such an ancient trade - especially as a woman. 🖤

I'm Māori from New Zealand. It's cool to see that Native American culture is similar to ours, in the way that faces were tattooed according to status, tribal affiliation, deception and mana (or spirit). Many men and woman still wear them today as a symbol of our heritage and to keep our traditions going. Thanks for this episode Bailey, it was cool to learn about other interpretations of the art <33

"Ladies and Germs" had me in a different kind of satisfaction. Love Bailey. ✨💅

Oh Joan smokes now 😂 I love how Bailey humanizes her! Literally love it

I’m native Canadian, and a childhood friends cousin is a tattoo apprentice. She does traditional designs for natives only and specific tribal symbols for our tribe. I’m In love with the traditional tattoo she gave me, and it makes me proud. I’m very much white passing but this tattoo is a visual sign to everyone that I am not ashamed of my culture and nothing can stop me from celebrating it. We’ve been through so much and our culture criminalized.

Hey Bailey!! I had an idea for a dark history episode....what about the dark history of roller coasters and amusement parks??

I am a tattoo artist that uses ancient traditions to use tattoos as medicine. I love that you did a story on this!

We will all be blindsided by some unexpected hurt or pain in life, but Tattoos are the scars we get to choose for ourselves.

I love how respectful you were to the lady at the spa in Japan 💙

I live in Japan so I’m so happy you went into the Japanese tattooing history!! I wish you’d touched on the traditional tattoos of the Ainu and Ryukyuan people and how banning tattooing was part of Wajin Japanese efforts to destroy their traditional cultures but there was so much else to cover in this video so I totally get that there wasn’t enough time!

11:45 Bailey’s beeps and followed by the laugh after is such a mood 😂😂

I didn't start getting tattoos until I was 45 years old. I have tattoos of artwork my grandmothers on both sides of the family created, but sadly no longer exists. The only thing that exists of that artwork are my tattoos. My tattoo artist did an incredible job of replicating that artwork. I am pretty heavily tattooed at nearly 58 years old now and will probably keep getting them until I pass on! 💖

Does anyone else suddenly feel like they want to go out and get more tattoo work done? 😅

As someone from tribes that were later branches from the mississippian group I am very touched that you actually brought that portion up. There are a lot of us working on reviving our traditional tattoos and I myself have gotten hand tattoos so far along side a bunch of modern artwork and an arm band from the designs on our pottery. I won't be stopping anytime soon. I don't know why but just seeing someone else talking about that aspect of the culture in this way really felt nice. thank you. <3 Also wanted to add that reviving a lot of our practices has proven to be hard because we did try to assimilate to survive and while that does mean more of us are still here and doing better than some others in many ways it cost us a lot of our culture and who we really are and what we came from. It feels like such an awful double edged sword. Also random side note my tattoo artist is wanting to help me out with doing my next traditional tattoo with an alligator gar tooth, my hands were hand poked but in a modern way and I am so excited for my next ones.

I have a tattoo done by at 7 yr old!!!!! True story. It was his 3rd tattoo!!!!! His dad owns our local shop and he's been training him

Would love to see a dark history on Alcatraz

Bailey makeup in this video is so snatched it could be a filter. The blending? The drama? The brows? I'm obsessed with ittttt! Pls give us this look during a MMM so I can learn!!!!

I am a collector of tattoos. When I visit a new state, I usually come home with new ink. So far, I have one from Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Florida, and Hawaii.
