OMAHA, Neb.–Tik Tok was the most downloaded app globally in both 2022 and 2021 giving artist and other creators alike a new platform to show their skills including tattoo artist Noah Brady.
Brady now makes a living doing what he enjoys and does it in an innovative way. “I love posting those videos, I started last March so I’m getting close to a yearish,” said Brady.
Brady has found himself with new opportunities and ways of meeting clients. Brady said, “Well, a good decent portion of my clients come from Tik Tok, they’ll hit my line on Instagram. Sometimes people will be like yo, can I fly you over to here, for tattoos, so I’ll fly over and tattoo them.”
In just one year of tattooing, Brady has found himself with nearly 300 thousand followers on Tik Tok and five million likes. All of those followers are eager to watch his charismatic personality and detailed line work in action. One of those 300 thousand followers, Madelyn Gau, found herself inspired and ready to take her first step into finding a meaningful tattoo.
Gau said, “I think you should just be able to live life how you want. If you want a flower on your arm or a type of bug on your leg something, it shouldn’t matter what other people think, you should be able to do what you wanna do and whatever makes you happy is what’s most important”.
