• He spent $10K to get his eyeballs blacked out.
• It took him six years to follow through with his decision to tattoo his eyeballs.

You’ve probably seen folks with face tattoos, turning their countenances into a school desk in detention, but what about eyeball ink?

Widely followed TikToker Quest Gulliford is known for sporting a ton of ink on his body, and now he’s literally inked up to his eyeballs, thanks to artist Luna Cobra, who is the self-proclaimed “inventor of the eyeball tattoo.”

In a TikTok Quest uploaded on Nov. 4, 2023, he answered some questions about the nature of getting eyeball tattoos and says that his decision in ultimately getting them blacked out took six years.

He responded to a user’s query about potentially removing the ink in an eyeball tattoo later on, but Quest explained that this wasn’t possible.

“This is a question: can you get your eyeball tattoos removed? And that’s a huge no. And that’s why it took me six years to actually think if I wanted to get it or not. I actually got the contacts that everyone thinks I’m wearing now…”

At this point in the video Quest moves the camera lens closer to his eyeball to demonstrate that he is indeed not wearing contact lenses — and that his ocular orbs are filled with ink — by wiggling them around.

“But I got those back in 2016-ish era, and I wore ’em every day for like 30 days to see if I liked the way I looked. And I loved it. And then it took six more years ’cause it was very expensive and I got, I hit up Luna Cobra and I finally got it done when I moved to Houston, Texas.”

Quest reiterated again in his clip, “And no, you can’t get these removed and I’m very happy about that ’cause I am super happy with the results. I love the way I look.”

Quest did indeed reference the high cost of the eyeball tattoo, so how much did he spend? That’s a topic he covered in a response in another clip, where he said that the total cost of the dual-eyeball procedure culminated in $10,000–$5,000 per each eye.
