Cancer survivor who has spent $70,000 on full body tattoos including on his EYEBALLS shares shocking before-and-after pics
- Quest Gulliford was inked in 2009 and is now covered in tattoos
- ‘I do it because it makes me happy!’ said Gulliford in a recent TikTok
A heavily tattooed TikTok user who survived cancer has gone viral after revealing his full body ink and shockingly painted eyeballs.
Quest Gulliford, who beat Hodgkin’s lymphoma, has spent $70,000 on tattoos since he started getting ink in 2009.
This week he showed his followers how he managed to get a toe-curling eyeball tattoo in his latest shocking clip.
“It definitely took a lot of preparation mentally,” Gulliford says in his video.
“It was definitely high risk, high reward, especially because I’ve wanted to do it for so long… and I’m still very happy with it three years later.”
Gulliford has spent more than $70,000 on all his tattoos and a whopping $10,000 on his eyes alone.
Quest Gulliford, a cancer survivor, answered the question in a video he posted to TikTok four days ago. According to the content creator, it took ‘a lot of mental preparation’
Despite the risk, he is extremely happy with the results three years after getting the results, and plans to have more ink injected into his eyes next month.
“It took me a long time the day I walked into the store in Houston, Texas, for me to even confuse myself to even get it done,” he said.
His tattoo artist from Houston stuck a needle into all sides of his eyeball to blacken them.
“It’s not really a tattoo on your skin, it’s more of an injection or adjustment.”
Towards the end of the video, Guilliford confirmed that he will see the same tattoo artist next month to put even more ink in his eyes.
Among his hundreds of tattoos are some that represent his battle with cancer.
The first tattoo Gulliford ever got was a cross on the left side of his chest with the words “God First.” When he was 18 years old, he got his first facial tattoo
The first tattoo Gulliford ever got was a cross on the left side of his chest with the words “God First” next to it.
Another personal tattoo of his was a purple cancer ribbon that represented his battle with Hodgkins lymphoma when he was in seventh grade.
“There was a big lymph node growing… I didn’t think anything of it,” he said.
‘It was about six months of chemotherapy. Afterwards I felt like a kind of superhuman.’
Gulliford said in an interview with Inked in 2019 that he got his first facial tattoo when he was 18 years old.
Unsurprisingly, his mother wasn’t too happy about it.
She learned to accept the smaller facial tattoos, but once they got bigger, she apparently had a problem with them.
“When I got bigger ones… That’s when she started going to the store and talking the artists out of it,” she said.
Social media users have asked Gulliford several questions about his eyeball tattoos and the shop in Houston where he got them
