Inked Cover Girl reveals the stars who are the backbone of the competition
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 3, 2024 / The Inked Cover Girl Competition, now in its seventh year, continues to celebrate and elevate tattooed women worldwide. It offers a unique opportunity to win $25,000, appear on the cover of Inked Magazine, and be tattooed by Inked Master's Ryan Ashley.
