Matias Tafel (formerly known in the industry as Rata) is a heavyweight piercer and educator from Argentina. Matias has been a leading educator to the Latin piercer communities in Central America, South America, and Europe for decades. I've wanted to get him on the show for a long time. This interview was recorded in August 2022 at the GEP conference in Brazil.
Check out my new first aid video about what happens when a client faints during a piercing, and I have a gem of an example to show you with it. I'm also finishing up a new video showing different septum techniques. Get access to these, and loads of other educational videos, at: www.patreon.com/ryanpba.
