Welcome to Inked Discussions, where we recruit the industry's top artists to define, debunk and opine on some of the hottest topics in tattooing. This week, we brought in Ink Master's Jon Mesa and Aaron Davis to discuss gatekeeping, something artists (including Jon) are accused of frequently. They discuss the origins of gatekeeping, its prevalence in the industry and how mass consumption of tattoo related content on shows like Ink Master affects client perceptions of the process.

If you have a topic you'd like to see artists discuss in a future video, let us know in the comments!
