First tattoo experience at 63 with Greek script by Jack Stralen

Yesterday I had the opportunity to give my pops his first tattoo at 63 years old. The word “Family” written in Greek, a matching tattoo that both my brother and sister have.

Starting this tattoo journey back in 2019 it wasn’t always green grass and full support from my parents. They grew up very old school so all they knew was get a college degree and a 9-5. I always knew I was meant for something different. 7 years later and not only my parents but my whole family are my biggest support system. This was a full circle moment, from tattooing out of their garage to now tattooing in our own shop. It wouldn’t be no Baby$tray without the OG. Yall are the reason I go as hard as I do. #TheBabyStrayWay #ShouldaWentToStray #BabyStrayInk #BroadwayDept #ShotBySarahtonin
