As the season 10 of Black Ink Crew kicks off, the tattoo shop staff are beyond excited as they reminisce over the past 10 years the show has been on air. The episode, titled "Ten Years In The Making," starts with the crew's owner, Ceaser, reminiscing over how much he's achieved since the show started, from growing the business to expanding their clientele.
Although the crew is excited to celebrate this huge milestone, there's still work to be done. Ceaser's ambitious goal for this season is to turn Black Ink into a one-stop-shop for all beauty needs and expand the brand into a franchise. But as he quickly re-discovers, achieving his goals is going to be harder than he imagined.
The episode starts with Ceaser and crew awkwardly attempting a photoshoot for Black Ink's 10-year anniversary. The shoot starts off well, with everyone dressed in elegant clothing, but it quickly goes downhill as the staff starts arguing over their individual contributions to the shop's growth. Ceaser is quick to remind them that they've all had a part in the shop's growth, now they need to focus on keeping the shop growing even more.
Meanwhile, Walt is still battling mental health issues and searching for ways to heal. Sky joins him on his quest and takes him to a spiritual advisor. She hopes that this visit will help Walt re-energize and find the peace he so desperately needs.
On the business front, Ceaser is focused on expanding the shop to include services such as beauty treatments, hair, and nails. He enlists the help of Kitty and Tati to make it happen, but it's not an easy task. They bring in professionals from their network to assist with this project, but what seems like a good idea ends up leading to more chaos, and even more so, a heated argument amongst the crew.
In the end, the crew comes together to celebrate the shop's 10th anniversary with a massive outdoor party. The party is a huge success, and it brings a much-needed inspirational feeling within the crew.
The first episode of Black Ink Crew's 10th season shines a light on the shop's immense growth over the past ten years, but also showcases the crew's struggles to continue growing and evolving. It's a great reminder that even after 10 years, the crew still has a long way to go. It's an excellent start to the season, and it's leaving fans excited and eager to see where this new direction will take the show.
