The thing about tattoos is that they last forever. Tattoos are permanent additions to a person's body that are meant to make them feel good about themselves. People get tattoos for all kinds of reasons. Some people get them to memorialize something, and some people get them to show off some personality, some people get them just for fun. No matter the reason why someone gets a tattoo, they should be done well.

Not everyone can be trusted to do a tattoo, obviously, but unfortunately, many people end up with terrible tattoo fails. To be fair, some tattoos were doomed from the design. Whether it's a bad design, a bad artist, or a combination of the two, though, tattoo fails are embarrassing… and also kind of hilarious. There are many places to find people's bad tattoos online, Reddit has plenty. Here are 27 terrible tattoo fails that are so cringeworthy they're hard to look at.
