Time for your very first artist profile here on Reality Ink. This one focusing in on one of the new members of the L.A. Ink
team, Kim Saigh. Kim is already a widely known artist in tattoo circles, as most that are hired for a show like this are. Here are some facts about Kim you may or may not already know
- Kim is a fanatical yoga practitioner
- Kim has been tattooing professionally for 16 year, and got started in her hometown of Cleveland, OH.
- Kim opened her first shop in Chicago called Cherry Bomb Tattoo.
Here are a few quotes from a recent interview……
What is your favorite tattoo on your body and what does it symbolize?
My sleeve on my right arm because I got it early on in my career. I got to watch Guy do the tattoo which was really inspiring to see because he was the person that made me want to tattoo and be a better artist.
What were your first thoughts when TLC approached you about being on LA INK?
My heart fell in my stomach and I knew that I was supposed to do this. I don’t know why, but I’ve had the same feeling before when certain opportunities have presented themselves. I’m just trying to roll with it and not expect too much, but enjoy the ride and see where it takes me.

So she is not one of the original women that Kat went around and asked herself? Because was there not one from Chicago or is this her? Did I just confuse you? Lol…
