Worst Tattoos Ever: Hilariously Regrettable Tattoo Disasters

Dog Tits

What do you do when you want to get a tattoo but can’t think of any good ideas? Well, you pick something random that makes you laugh! At least, that’s what the person featured in this picture did. Rather than getting a tattoo filled with significance, he decided to get several nipples tattooed down his abdomen. Then, just for good measure, he also got the words “dog tits” tatted on himself. Is it hilarious? Absolutely! Is it super bad? It’s really, really bad.

What Does This Say?

Looking at this tattoo gives us some Deja vu. It gives us the same vibes as the “el hopaness romtic” tattoo. At least with that tattoo, you could eventually figure out what it means. We have no idea what to make of this tattoo! The words “live your truth” are easy enough to see, but the words in the middle are very confusing. We think it’s supposed to spell out, “I am who I am.” But even that doesn’t make a ton of sense. Someone should have sat this person down and told them to rethink this tattoo.

Turtle Head

Turtles are actually awesome animals, so we can’t blame this guy for wanting to get one of them tattooed on him. However, we are judging for the turtle tattoo covering his entire head! It looks super weird, even though the tattoo is actually pretty good quality. The image is just confusing. Is he pretending to have a turtle friend that follows him around everywhere? Regardless of his intentions and the quality of this tattoo, it falls flat.

This Is Too Disturbing

Some face tattoos look great, but this is just disturbing. This man got a smaller version of his own face tattooed on his face, and the result is like something out of a nightmare! It’s hard to know where to look when you see this picture, and the longer you look at it, the worse it seems to get. There’s nothing pleasant or interesting about this tattoo. It’s just plain creepy!

The Shoulder Straps Are A Mistake

This person got a nice, simple tattoo across the front of their shoulder, but they didn’t think about how it would look once they were wearing a dress with shoulder straps. Instead of being a cute tattoo featuring an inspirational message, it’s turned into something hilarious! Maybe this was intentional, and she wanted to draw attention to that part of her body. Regardless, it’s not a very appropriate tattoo to have when you’re at work, so hopefully, her outfits cover it!

Excellent Recreation

Asking inexperienced tattoo artists to recreate incredible tattoos almost never ends well. This person learned that the hard way when they brought their tattoo artist a picture of a tatt with birds soaring over a tree. The resulting tattoo is pretty low-quality, badly shaded, and an overall disappointment. Do you think this person asked for a refund? Because they probably should have! Or, at the very least, they should have asked for a free cover-up.

“Tribal Tattoo”

This is so intentionally bad that it’s actually really hilarious. Lots of people enjoy getting tribal tattoos, and many tattoo artists have even commented on how popular this trend has become. Someone decided to make the trend their own and, instead of getting an actual design of a tribal tattoo, simply got the words “tribal tattoo” in quotes. This one make us choke on our coffee a bit.

Religious Tattoo Gone Wrong

Religious symbols are probably one of the most popular tattoo themes in the world. A vast number of people have images of crosses, holy figures, and other religious symbols tattooed on their bodies. Many of these tattoos look amazing and provide comfort to people, but this tattoo isn’t providing comfort to anyone. The artist gave Jesus a face that does not look comforting, holy, or divine. It actually looks pretty scary, and we’d rather not look at this tattoo for another second!

Faux Sunglasses

We don’t even know where to start with this one! Why would you do this? This man got a pair of fake sunglasses tattooed on his face, and it looks just as bad as it sounds. The way the frames constantly outline his eyes are super creepy, and the worst part is that the tattoo wasn’t even done well! The line work is sloppy, and the shading is inconsistent. Tattoo removal, anyone?

Baby Shark Do Do Do Do Do Do

Baby Shark became a media sensation when the original video came out in 2015. Kids everywhere loved the musical jingle and the accompanying hand movements, while parents everywhere wanted to pull their hair out after listening to it for the millionth time. This person got a tattoo of the infamous line, “baby shark do do do do do do,” and immediately regretted it. He snapped a photo and captioned it with, “I’ve ruined my life.” Don’t worry dude, you can totally get that covered up!

When Veganism Becomes Your Whole Personality

People like this give vegans a bad reputation. No one wants to feel like someone is shoving their ideals down their throat, but it tends to happen. Vegans get a lot of flack when they make their diet their entire personality, and this woman took this phenomenon a step too far. She got the word “vegan” tattooed on her face, specifically to let everyone she encounters know that she is a vegan. Not everyone needs to know about your dietary preferences!

The Best Worst Tattoo

Okay, we really can’t complain about this tattoo too much. Anyone who grew up watching Spongebob in the 90s will instantly recognize the figure in this tattoo and have a good laugh. This is actually a cute idea and a pretty nostalgic tattoo. If you’re mad about this tattoo, you need to go back and rewatch this episode of Spongebob because it was an example of peak comedy!

Puzzle Piece Tattoos

Puzzle piece tattoos are actually really cute when they’re done properly. It’s a great way of showing how much you love one another and how well you fit together. However, the couple in this photo didn’t think their tattoo through well enough. After sharing a picture of their tatts on social media, someone was quick to point out that they both got corner pieces that would never actually fit together. That’s pretty unfortunate.

Tiger Lily?

Tiger lilies are gorgeous flowers, but people just can’t help themselves sometimes. Some people are so determined to set themselves apart from the crowd and be unique and the results can be disastrous. This person wanted a tiger lily tattoo with a face of a tiger in the middle. That’s fair enough, but the tattoo is such bad quality that it’s actually laughable. The petals of the flower look more like wilted bandaids than anything else!

Poor Drunken Choice

This is a classic example of why you should never do any form of body modification while you’re intoxicated. Drunk you will make decisions that sober you will regret, and you’ll be left with a permanent reminder of that awful choice when tattooing is involved. This person got an angry Pikachu tattooed on his calf while he was drunk and has regretted it ever since. Learn from this person’s mistakes. Tattoos and booze don’t mix!
