This Artist Inks Hidden Tattoos

There are parts of your body (or at least mine) that are not routinely displayed to the public. The roof of the mouth is an example. Indy Voet, a Belgian tattoo artist, has been inking tattoos in that remote location for five years. He tells Inked magazine that it's a tricky job that requires delicate handwork and a trusting client:

For this process, Voet uses a handpoking technique rather than a machine, explaining that the machine would be too harsh on this location and too difficult to get to. "I don't really use anything other than a needle and some dexterity, combined with the trust of my client."

Thankfully, it doesn't hurt too much to get tattooed on the roof of the mouth:

"Nine out of 10 people describe these tattoos as being almost painless or at least, very easy to handle. The other 10% mostly complain about jaw muscle aches, which seems logical."
