27 Terrible Tattoos Someone Definitely Regrets

Tattoos are forever, that's the whole point with them. Tattoos are permanent so it's important to ensure that the tattoo you're getting is the one you want forever. There is nothing more embarrassing than a tattoo fail, all that time, money, and pain spent for something to go so terribly wrong. It can be a case of a bad design, a bad artist, or a lethal combination of both.

Some "artists" are way too confident in their skills and shouldn't be allowed near a tattoo machine at all. Some people have some insane ideas that are bound to be regretted, whether they are well done or not. Tattoo fails are so bad, but unfortunately so common. Reddit has a number of subreddits made for all of the worst tattoo fails around. Many are cases of self-shaming, some are found in the wild, and all of them are bad in their own special ways. Here are 27 terribly done tattoos that are permanent reminders of a poorly made decision.
