The 14th season of the tattoo reality competition Ink Master premiered on Paramount+ on September 7, 2022. The season ran for 10 episodes, with the finale premiering on November 2, 2022.[1] Joel Madden, lead vocalist of Good Charlotte, replaced Dave Navarro as the host and judge. Long-time judges Chris Núñez and Oliver Peck were replaced with Ami James, Nikko Hurtado, and Season 8 winner, Ryan Ashley. Season 14 was the first season of the show to have four regular judges.[2]

Ten returning artists and four winning artists from previous seasons competed in Season 14 for $250,000 and the title of Ink Master. The artists were announced ahead of the premiere.[3] Navarro appeared as the "Master of Chaos", introducing new twists to the challenges. The season also makes his last appearance on the show. Season 14 was the first season since the show's inaugural season to not have a live finale.

DJ Tambe won the season, making it his third win. Gian Karle was runner-up, Bob Jones placed third, and Creepy Jason placed fourth.
