The Basics on the Incredible Tattoo Queen Kat Von D
Kat Von D is the undisputed Queen of Ink.
With a hit TV series, a highly successful tattoo studio, a client list packed full of celebrity names, an active online profile, a makeup and fragrance range, two books and boutique already under her belt at the age of 29, one can’t help but wonder what else the incredible Kat Von D will achieve in the near future.
Making a Mark on Miami Ink
Kat Von D first hit our TV screens in 2005 when she appeared as a guest artist on the hit series Miami Ink. Kat’s incredible skill for portraiture art and her delightful bedside manner helped make her a big hit with fans of the show.
Despite her obvious success both in studio and on screen, it became apparent that a clash of personalities and opinions would ultimately lead to the end of Kat Von D’s time at the Miami Ink studio.
However, Kat Von D is hardly the kind of woman to let a challenge overcome her; and Kat’s response to the taste of success has been incredible to say the least.
Leading the Way with LA Ink
On her return to California, Kat Von D arranged a sister series, to be filmed in her own studio, High Voltage Tattoo. She helped handpick the team for the studio and show, and filming started quickly.
It didn’t take long for LA Ink to start drawing in an even bigger audience than it’s rival; and fans simply couldn’t get enough of Kat and her team.
La Ink continues to be filmed and aired, and it continues to be as successful as it has been from the start.
Achievements of Kat Von D
During the filming of LA Ink, Kat Von D set the Guinness World Record for the most tattoos performed by one person in a 24 hour period. During that one crazy and memorable day, Kat Von D tattooed over 400 people. Although this record has since been broken by others, Kat Von D is still incredibly proud of this achievement.
As well as setting records, Kat Von D has explored other avenues of creativity; each time creating fabulous results that old fans adore and new fans fall in love with.
Women worldwide particularly like the Kat Von D makeup rage, created with Sephora. The range includes a number of unique products that have been highly successful, and all of the products bear the obvious and distinctive characteristics of Kat Von D in one way or another. The personalization of these designer products makes them even more charming and intriguing.
Book lovers soon fell in love with Kat Von D upon reading her two books, ‘High Voltage Tattoo’ and ‘The Tattoo Chronicles’. Both books came highly rated by the New York Times, helping her and her tattoos to reach new audiences.
Kat Von D can be attributed to having paved the way for great changes in the global perceptions of those who have tattoos, and those who create tattoos.
