TATTOOZ.LIFE is built for the global tattoo community — artists, models, studios and collectors. These guidelines exist to keep the platform a respectful, professional and inspiring space for everyone. Violations may result in content removal or account suspension.
Our Community Values
We're a platform built on creativity, craft and culture. We celebrate tattoo art in all its forms — from traditional to blackwork, from fine line to full bodysuit. We welcome artists and models from every background, country and style.
We expect all members to treat each other with respect and to represent themselves and their work honestly.

- Upload genuine photos of your own work or yourself
- Write an honest bio that accurately represents your skills and services
- Keep your contact and booking information up to date
- Tag your styles accurately so collectors can find you
✗ Don't
- Claim to be someone else or impersonate another artist or studio
- Upload work that isn't yours without clear credit and permission
- Use misleading photos that don't represent your actual skill level
- Create multiple profiles for the same person or business
- Use your profile to promote services unrelated to tattooing

Instagram Promo Submissions
Pro members may submit content for promotion across our Instagram accounts. All submitted content must:
- Be content you own or have explicit permission to share
- Follow Instagram's Community Standards
- Be tattoo-related and relevant to your profile type
- Not contain explicit nudity, even if artistic in nature
- Not contain third-party music or copyrighted material that could cause the post to be muted or removed
We reserve the right to decline any submission that we believe would violate platform guidelines or damage the community's reputation.
