Tattoo artist and "Ink Master" contestant Jayvo Scott has some advice for anyone getting their first tattoo: "Do your research."
There may be no better spot to do that research than at this weekend's Orlando Tattoo Festival at the Florida Hotel and Conference Center where more than 100 tattoo artists, including Scott, will be on hand.
This year's festival will include live tattooing, body piercing, live music, tattoo cinema and a Miss Orlando Tattoo pageant.
The three-day festival starts Friday.
Organizer Peter Brouillette and Scott stopped by the WESH 2 studio to talk about the festival.
