Regret—it’s something we all face at some point, and few things spark remorse quite like a bad tattoo. In the United States, an estimated 32% of people have tattoos, and roughly one-quarter of them may eventually regret their quirky choices or even consider having them removed.
For many, getting a tattoo is a thoughtful process involving hours of picking the perfect design, consulting with a skilled tattoo artist, and deciding on the ideal spot for their new ink. Then there’s the other group—those who, perhaps after a night of poor decisions, grab a guitar string, some fountain pen ink, and voilà—they’re left with a truly regrettable tattoo.
One thing’s for sure: the world will never run out of tattoo fails or people eager to share their most cringe-worthy ink. We’ve compiled a fresh list of tattoo disasters that didn’t turn out as expected or will leave you wondering what on earth people were thinking.
