Eyeball Tattoo
Tattoos are an amazing way of showing off your unique personality, and 24-year-old Amber
Luke from Australia definitely believed that.
Luke has spent over $26,000 on tattoos, piercings, and other body modifications.
She never imagined that one tattoo decision could permanently disable her.
What happened?
Well, she went blind!
Luke, who calls herself "Blue-Eyes White Dragon, (sweet name Luke) went in to get an eyeball
tattoo, yes you can actually get tattoos on your eyeballs!
The session proved to be a torturous ordeal.
She has over 200 tattoos all over her body but says the eyeball tattoo was the most painful
of them all.
In the procedure, blue ink had to be injected all over the whites of her eyes.
She was no stranger to the pain, but things took a dangerous turn when the tattoo artist
went too deep into her sclera.
The syringe was inserted 4 times in each eye!
We can’t handle an eyelash making its way into our eyes, imagine what a syringe could
feel like!
She described the pain as feeling as if the tattoo artist had rubbed 10 shards of glass
directly into her eye.
If done properly, the procedure shouldn't cause any issues with one's sight, but Luke
was left blinded for 3 weeks.
Since then, Luke has given up on the idea of getting any more extreme body modifications
done; however, she does plan to be covered in tattoos by the time she's 25.
That’s some determination!

Flea the Scene!
When you decide to get the tattoo it's not just the design that matters, what shop you
go to to get it done matters a lot too!
Shops that have been around for a long time and have satisfied customers to vouch for
their artists' work, is probably where you want to go.
But one guy chose to dive headfirst into a pool of mistakes.
He chose to get his first tattoo done at a shop that had only been open for a few months.
His tattoo artist was talented and did the job well but despite that, he has an extra
line coming from the center of the piece.
Can you guess why?
When the artist was tattooing him, a flea jumped out from his dreadlocks and straight
onto the stencil.
Probably the flea wanted to contribute to the art!

Eye of the tiger Even a tiny mistake feels like a lot when
it comes to tattoos because it is going to stay on your skin forever, so can you imagine
what this man might be feeling with a full-back tattoo of a deformed-looking tiger.
He went into a shop with the idea to get a Japanese-style tiger on his back.
The tattoo artist told him it could be done.
Everyone who saw the tattoo deemed THAT WAS A LIE.
We don't know about a tiger but the final result came out looking like a cat that was
run over.
With mismatched eyes, and botched proportions we wouldn’t be surprised if a third-grader
claims credit for the artwork.
The only saving grace of the tattoo is that it's going to be a great conversation starter.

Galaxy Ah, the star-studded sky and the pristine
colors of the galaxy!
Who doesn't love a good celestial-themed tattoo?
These might look amazing but the hard work that goes behind the seamless blend is colossal,
to say the least.
This is why you should always look at your tattoo artist's previous work before finalizing
them.
Can you imagine going in with a beautiful reference picture and enduring pain for hours,
only to look in the mirror and see the exact opposite of what you wanted?
A woman went to a tattoo artist and said she wanted the galaxy tatted on her chest.
Can you picture a beautiful cosmic scene?
Well, so did she.
But that’s not what she got.
Definitely Not.
It looks like the tattoo artist was going for gummy worms instead of a galaxy.
The streaky shapes and the harsh lines look beyond repair.
And with the size and placement of the tattoo, we feel sorry for the lady who had to sit
through the session only to get a splattered mess instead.

Forbidden Fruit For a change, it is not the tattoo artist's
fault, it just looks like poor life choices.
Is it a private joke or something, we'll never know why this person chose to get a tattoo
of a tide pod along with the words "Forbidden Fruit".
And they are not the only one unfortunately, with tide pods etched on their body forever.
Like the tide pod challenge, getting tattoos of tide pods also became a trend complete
with the words "Forbidden Fruit".
On a lighter note though, it is surely a relief that the tide pod challenge is finally over
and people are using the pods for doing laundry again - the job it was meant for.

Proofreading is a must!
It doesn't matter if you like tattoos or hate them, you have to agree that proofreading
is extremely important, especially when you are writing something permanently on your
skin.
But some people just don’t think things through..
What do you get when you combine an epic mistake with a motivational quote?
Regret!
With a tattoo that says"Never don't give up" we wonder what this person was really trying
to say.
Either they need a lesson in grammar or they are just tired of the world and want to give
up.
Either way, it does make a funny tattoo.
Don't you agree?
OK!
What is the weirdest place on your body that you would get inked?

Blah Blah Blah Aliens, UFOs, and other spooky sci-fi elements
can make some really interesting tattoos, but it all depends on what message you want
to convey.
When Jeremy asked his friend to create a tattoo design for him, he didn't expect that the
resulting abomination was going to haunt him for life.
The tattoo is a UFO with a tractor beam coming out of it.
It might not look that bad from afar, but unfortunately, as you get closer, the details
get a little clearer.
On the tractor beam are the words 'blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.'
And then what’s more, in the tractor beam, there’s a cow!
What is that even supposed to mean?
Aliens are abducting cows...and tractors?!
Jeremy said that it hurt so badly that he didn't even finish the tattoo.
He initially wanted something meaningful to be written in the tractor beam but told his
friend to put "Whatever blah blah blah" and that's what he did.
23-year-old Jeremy thought it was a cool idea.
Looking back now, the fact that it is a meaningless, unfinished tattoo that doesn't even look cool
irks him.
It might look like a drunk tattoo but the fact that he was completely sober makes us
question it even more.

Too Inspired It is quite common for people to use pictures
of other tattoos as references.
It can be a helpful idea because you'll know what the design looks like on skin, plus it
might help the tattoo artist understand the positioning of the design better too.
But references are references, they shouldn't be taken too literally.
One tattoo fanatic picked out a near perfection reference tattoo with crisp use of colors
and seamless blending.
The amazing execution of the fine lines and shading elevated the design.
But, the key to getting the same artwork is to choose your artist wisely.
The reference tattoo was done on one side of the chest and extended to the shoulders
and featured Batman's enemies.
The inspired one was to be done on the arm.
We are guessing that the tattoo artist didn't make any modifications to the original one
because he added something he shouldn't have.
While inking the villains on his client's arm, he also accidentally added the first
guy's nipple too.
What can be worse than having someone else's nipple inked on your arm forever?
If you think this is bad then stay tuned for the celebrity tattoo we have at number 1!

No Boundies Getting a tattoo is an important life decision,
and deciding to get one while you are drunk sounds like the perfect evening activity doesn't
it?
That is only if you like the regrets that follow!
31-year-old Danielle was out drinking with a friend when both of them decided it was
time to break the monotony of their lives and spice the evening up by getting tattoos.
They were sitting at the bar laughing and thinking about what they should get when Danielle
said "It's like we don't have any boundaries" and that's the moment she decided what she
was going to get.
The words, "No Boundaries".
Not so bad right?
The two found a tattoo shop but unfortunately, the tattoo artist was also.. no points for
guessing..
Drunk!!
She told him she wanted a tattoo from the side of her breast to her hip with some stars
on it too.
The next morning she woke up and realized what she had done.
Danielle texted her friend to tell her that she got an embarrassing tattoo that says "No
Boundaries" and sent a picture.
Pop came the reply "You know that doesn’t say no boundaries, right?".
The artist missed the letters ‘’A’ and 'R' so the tattoo read "No Boundies".
We can only hope the mistake can be redeemed in a cover-up or by adding the missing letters!

Chinese Tattoo Getting a tattoo in another language can instantly
give you an edge, so getting words inked in different languages has become a very popular
trend.
Even common and basic words like 'hope,' and 'love', look cool when done in a different
language.
In fact, it is so popular that many celebrities have gone with this time-tested tactic.
For example, Justin Beiber has the word music tattooed on his forearm in Chinese.
Justin Timberlake has the same tattoo as well.
Angelina Jolie has the word "determination" tattooed on her arm in Urdu.
The list goes on.
So why shouldn't we common folks follow the trend?
There's no harm, right?
But it is important to understand that these are words and letters that you are tattooing
on yourself, not designs.
In the mindless daze of foreign language tattoos, many people have fallen victim to getting
meaningless bogus inked on their skin.
One man was smitten by a Chinese inscription which he assumed to be a fancy pattern.
He went ahead to get this inked on his left arm.
He probably was only thinking about how cool it was gonna look instead of checking what
the words actually meant!
Thanks to technology, we now know the bright red Chinese letters do not hold any ancient
wisdom, they literally mean "Turkey Sandwich".
Well, the literal translation was actually meant to be "Fire Bird Sandwich".
And that is exactly why you need to spend at least 10 minutes on your tattoo design
before you finalize it!

Tattoo Removal Gone Wrong
No, she did not make the list because of a bad tattoo, instead, it was a tattoo removal
gone wrong that scarred her for life.
Literally!
21-year-old Pasuda Reaw had a large tattoo of 3 roses and leaves on her chest.
She wanted to get it removed to look more professional at work.
She would have never thought that the removal process would leave a bigger impact than the
tattoo itself.
She chose a chemical method where a mix of chemicals is applied to the skin.
The laser-free method is applied that’s supposed to bring the tattoo pigments out
of the skin.
It creates a scab that can be peeled off easily.
Sounds a little too easy, doesn't it?
Immediately after she began the treatment her skin became itchy and started hurting
a lot.
2 months after Reaw got the procedure done, her skin had swollen up and caused, in her
own words, 'torturous pain'.
Not to mention the unsightly scar across her chest.
It took a long time for the scab to come off.
She described the whole process as torture.
She couldn't even sleep because of the pain.
After all that pain, was the removal worth it?
Reaw feels that the residual scar is worse than what she started off with and she doesn't
recommend the treatment at all.
Do you know anyone that’s got a tattoo removed?
What happened?

Japanese Barbeque Grill Remember when we said how important it is
to research the word you are getting tattooed if you’re getting it done in a different
language?
Well, Ariana Grande fell down the same rabbit hole and made a hilarious blunder.
After releasing her single 7 Rings, Ariana began 2019 with a tattoo of what she thought
said, ‘7 Rings' in Japanese.
But it turns out the star made an ignorant mistake.
The Japanese letters actually read "Shichirin" which is a Japanese barbecue grill.
That's something she definitely didn't want!
The two letters separately mean 7 and 'ring' but when joined together they have a completely
different meaning, as pointed out by Ariana's Japanese fans.
Soon after, she got it fixed, but now the tattoo reads Japanese BBQ finger.
Another lesson in the book called, ‘why you should choose your tattoo wisely!’
