Terrible Tattoo Designs That People Instantly Regretted (These Tattoos Were Completely Botched)
Letting someone tattoo you means you give them all the trust in the world.
Tattoos are pretty much permanent, so you had better hope there won't be any mistakes. Sure, you can always try and get it covered up or removed, but that's more pain, and it isn't always going to look like you want it to. Here are some of the worst tattoos ever that prove you shouldn't trust people so easily.
Hershey's Kiss?
A Hershey's Kiss done properly has a ton of potential. This little number has no sense of imagination and looks like something else entirely.
Maybe this person should get this one covered up.
What If This Was Your First Tattoo?
If this is your first tattoo at the age of 15, would you love it?
I'm not sure if this person still has this mistake on their body, but hopefully not.
Is That Jesus?
Wow, this one looks interesting. For the person who received this, I wonder what their reaction was the first time they saw this.
Do you think it was everything they had hoped for?
"I Survived Because The Fire Inside"
How do you tell someone you love that there is a disaster on their body in the form of ink?
Did she mean to go for the ransom-note style of lettering?
When You Love Reese's Too Much
I'm not sure if this is an ode to Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or the emblem for a band.
Either way, it needs some work if you want to show it off.
Pray For Something Better
If these hands aren't praying for an upgrade, then it's a waste of time.
This shouldn't have even made it onto someone's skin. I wouldn't have wanted to take a picture of it.
What In The...
What in the world is this? Is this some kind of hypnotizing symbol, or is it just a disaster of a tattoo?
It doesn't make any sense to me, and this person probably has loads of regrets.
A Lion-Woman Thing??
First, let's take a look at the chin. It looks like a genetic mutation that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy.
Next, the shading is all over the place, but I'm no expert.
He Wants Respet
Clearly, this man only wants one thing, and that's respet.
Sadly, it might be tough for him to achieve that with that tattoo. Is it acting as an eyebrow replacement?
Do You Know What This Is?
At first glance, this looks like a pair of forest animals next to each other.
The longer you look at it, the more of a confusion, bizarre disaster it becomes.
So Much Going On Here
If this is what you're into, then by all means get it.
For the rest of us, we'd like to know why an angel would be holding a bag of money with wine.
Is That A Pair Of Lips?
Is that a pair of lips on a chest?
That's an interesting first tattoo to get, especially since you don't see many people walking around rocking black lipstick these days.
What A Great Job! ...Said No One
Did this person have a child do this, or was the artist using a jackhammer while drawing it on?
Maybe the person receiving the tattoo kept moving while it was being drawn.
Poor Flowers
That's not how flowers should look, but I digress. The middles of the sunflowers seem like they need a little more life added to them.
Everything else is all over the place.
What's Going On Here?
This is like getting a tattoo that says "The Plague" if you lived during those times.
What was this man thinking? Honestly, this was probably a joke thing that went too far.
Is This Jurassic Park?
Wow, how much trust do you have to have with someone before you tell them you want a dinosaur and volcano tattooed on your back?
If it comes out like this, you probably won't have any more trust.
"I Told My Friend Not To Get It Done For $60..."
When you want something done that might take a little more skill than usual, then you shouldn't do it for $60.
Now this person knows that after having this done.
Tattooed Freckles Look Like Blackheads...
Getting freckles tattooed on you doesn't seem like too strange of an idea, but you don't want them looking like this.
It looks like she needs a new skincare routine.
"Wassup Cat"
There's no way this is Hello Kitty. This isn't even Hi There Kitten.
The only thing you can call this is "Wassup Cat," and that name still gives it some respect that it doesn't deserve.
Keep That Third Eye Open
I hope this means something to this woman because this is utter nonsense to me.
Really and truly I hope there's a removal artist in prison because that's a long life to live with that on her face.
That's Interesting To See...
Well, now you know that women do fart. You won't ever have to wonder that again if you see this tattoo.
The wild part is the detail on the fart.
The Audacity
If you're going to honor someone, you had better do it respectfully.
Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant, and I'm sorry that there are people out there making you look like an '80s horror film actor.
Scribbling Done Well
Okay, this one was for sure done by a 4-year-old.
There's no other way to explain what in tarnation is going on here. I see a horse and a bunch of random sentences.
Nice Dime You Have There
In no way is that a nice dime.
This is probably the worst dime ever to exist. You can't even tell who the person is on the front of it.
No Way You Let This Slide
The story behind this is that someone gave it to themselves in the 8th grade.
At that point, I'd rather have my arm chopped off than look at this any longer.
Something Seems Wrong Here...
I can't put my finger on it, but it looks like something is wrong here.
The colors seem right, but this princess has arms that bend like they don't have any bones.
It's The Hands For Me
Everything looks fine until you notice it. When you see the praying hands, that's when you know this wasn't done professionally.
I wonder if he's going to get it fixed.
Doing It Yourself Isn't Always The Best Idea
When you can do things yourself, it doesn't always make it okay.
Sometimes, you need to let others handle it for you, especially if it's a tattoo. Look at this as an example.
In Desperate Need Of A Cover-Up
Getting a cover-up for a bad tattoo is a step in the right direction.
The only hard part about that is having to show the new artist what they have to work with.
Horse Or Cow?
Is that angel of death riding a cow or a horse?
There's no telling just by glancing at it, so you have to do a little more investigation. It looks like a wide horse.
When You Can't Afford Designer
When you can't afford a designer, is this really the next best thing?
This person probably doesn't have a care in the world if this is the final look. Someone get this man some help.
The Moon Is Personally Offended By This
The moon is one of the most consistently beautiful elements of our world, so I can understand the desire to get a tattoo of it.
However, this is borderline insulting to it.
I Wouldn't Let Him In My Kitchen...
To be fair, this poor tattoo job is actually pretty wholesome.
This guy's girlfriend really wants to get into doing tattoos so he let her try out her first one on him—so what if it looks like a depressed version of the Pixar character?
Imagine Having The Audacity To Call This A "Great Job"
If anything, this is the opposite of an endorsement because if I saw this, I would never trust this person to give me a tattoo.
Also, I'm judging the choice to put the worst Joker portrayal onto their body permanently.
It's A Chonky Boy
The difference between the reference photo for this tattoo and the actual result is so intense that I wouldn't consider them even similar.
At least the tattoo is cute though.
I Hope They Worked It Out <3
It's a question that has plagued couples for hundreds of years: how do you fix a marriage after one person behaves poorly?
Apparently, this husband decided that this was the best route.
Harry Potter Or John Lennon?
Do you love the magical teenage hero from the beloved children's series or do you love the Beatles band member who was assassinated?
Well, you can get the best of both in one terrible tattoo!
I Don't Remember The Song Going Like That...
I don't know what compelled this human being to put this questionable PSA onto their body for the rest of their lives.
But I do know that I dislike it with my whole heart.
Luckily, Things Can Get Better
Even if you trust your skin to an inexperienced artist and the tattoo turns out horribly, there are still great tattoo artists who can do a coverup job.
That way, you can turn it into something you're proud of.
At Least Someone Can Enjoy Them!
If your body does end up being riddled with a bunch of ugly tattoos, you can rest easy.
Someday, a coroner down the road will get a kick out of them.
He's Just Really Passionate About USB Ports, I Guess
I love technology and everything it allows us to do just as much as any other person.
But I can't imagine being so passionate about USB ports that I would put the symbol on my body forever.
