Kylie Jenner is playing tattoo artist again..

The 18-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star visited the tattoo parlor West 4 Tattoo in New York City Saturday to get a pinkie tat as well as a touch-up for her red "Mary Jo" arm ink, dedicated to her maternal grandmother. During her time in the shop, she gave tattoo artist Jonathan "JonBoy" Valena some new ink of his own on his own arm—a "K" with a crown, also written in red.

Kylie was accompanied by friends Justine Skye and Jordyn Woods. Valena posted a photo of himself and the girls and a close-up of Kylie's handiwork on Instagram.

"My New Ink!" he wrote. "Thanks girls @kyliejenner @justineskye @jordynwoods."

"Kylie is a natural!" he told E! News exclusively. "We chose to go with a 'K' with a crown and in red ink because that's her signature color with her own tattoos. I love it, it's perfect."

 Kylie documented her visit on Snapchat.

"But I'm going to do it for you," she tells Valena in one video.

"You have to do it for me," he replies. "It has to be perfect. You know I'm a perfectionist."

Last November, Kylie had also tattooed a red "K" and crown on another NYC tattoo artist, Bang Bang, who had given her new ink on her hip.

"You're actually really steady," he told her.
