The popularity of tattoos has skyrocketed in recent years, and with that has come a dramatic rise in the race to create the most unique body art. While others are happy with a small cute tattoo or a full back with intricated lines, some people take it up a notch and choose for themselves the most horrible designs.
Today's list includes some of the lousiest artwork including shaky lines, lousy resilience, and bad shadows. After witnessing these atrocities, we hope you never decide to design a tattoo yourself, and always check the artist's credentials before your appointment.
Lip tattoo
A few years ago, tattoos on one's lips became very popular. It's probably because you can hide it, and it only shows up when you pull your bottom lip down. It is an incomplete form of rebellion. Well, at least that's the idea. This artist got it very wrong. Instead of being obscured, the tattoo is only on the lower lip and is rather very conspicuous. To make it worse, why would she choose such a silly word?
Twilight fish
It's unclear how this person came up with this combination, but they somehow put a sick Twilight quote into the rainbow fish-like tattoo. The two seem to be far apart, but there is some common ground for this individual. It's a unique look, for sure. We hope they pay less for this, as the design needs to be revised. The quote will be a bit gory, but adding the fish is coincidental.
Compass
A lot of people have tattoos dedicated to their significant other. Usually, they receive a heart, their lover's name, or some form of symbolism for their relationship. This person chose the third option uniquely. This uneven compass has a heart with what appear to be knives cut through it, with a quote around it. The original saying was, "I was once lost, but now I have been found." This person used their version of the famous quote and ended up with this body art.
Sunny day
"The sun will rise." This is undoubtedly true. However, the sun in this tattoo has already risen, so it loses its purpose of this tattoo. The lines are also very uneven and shaky, so clearly, this is not the most professional artist who has done this tattoo. We don't knock feelings down because it's a friendly reminder that everything is temporary and tomorrow will always be a new day—no matter what you're going through.
Crystal Lake
There's so much going on here, from the horrible fox design to the random rose. The face is a bit thin and not very proportionate, so now it looks half like a side view and half like a straight face. The rose that grows out of the fox's mouth is an entirely different design, making us think this could be a cover-up. It also seems a bit out of place. Wolves are powerful creatures, but this one has a delicate flower in its mouth.
