The artist known for saving people from regrettable tattoos on Spike's Tattoo Nightmares talks about tattooing disasters and the brand new season of the show.

Tommy Helm has made a big name for himself in the world of tattoos; he's known for his appearance as runner-up on season one of Ink Master and for helping to rescue tattoo enthusiasts from the depths of their ink regret, sure, but he's also known for consistently doing excellent work at his shop Empire State Studios in Oceanside on Long Island.

He called up the show to talk about the worst tattoos he's ever had to cover, how often he wants to cover up awful tattoos he sees in public, and why he would never cover an REO Speedwagon tattoo.

Check out Tattoo Nightmares on Spike every Tuesday at 11PM, immediately following Ink Master. Here's a preview of one of the stories from this season:
