More stick-n-poke radness

Do you remember the post I did about the young man with the butterflies on his feet and the ridiculous home tattoos? Well, he showed me some photos of his friend's tattoos. And boy, are they ridiculous!

First up- booyah! arm!

This poor person has "booyah!" on their arm not once, but at least SEVEN TIMES! I can also see a pterodactyl, a ghost, and "USA GOES UNDEFEATED".


I wish I knew the story behind this one. "Saves Latin"??? ... maybe I don't really want to know.


And this. What is this? An alien-insect with patriotic wings riding a scooter with hello kitty with a mustache in the back? WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

Seriously, the more I see tattoos like this, the more I shake my head and start to wonder if they are really works of genius instead of being the worst tattoos in the world.

Cats with no ears

I just took in two of the cutest cats ever, and so I have had cats on the brain lately. Because of this, I thought I'd do some searching for bad cat tattoos. I am SURE there are worse ones out here, but this is what I found- three cat tattoos without any ears. Why would you ever draw a cat without ears? It just makes them look like weird aliens!


This looks like a Lisa Frank drawing without the pizazz.


This is the most half-assed tattoo I have possibly ever seen. Why are the eyes sideways? Why are the whiskers blue? Where are the ears? So many unanswered questions!


This is a mix of the lady's five cats and some human (the right eye). Why the human has a lazy eye, I don't know. I also think the cat is actually the bark of a tree.


And finally, while not technically terrible, this butterfly-cat holding a flower and inexplicably wearing pants makes me laugh.

Sexy Back koi Tattoo For Girls

back tattoos were hardly seen that much prior to the 1990s, when crop tops and short shirts were trendy. Girls found out that they could showcase a great tattoo and that a lower back design increased the focus on their feminine curves and waistline. Even though it's been a decade, these sexy tattoos for girls are still going strong. In fact, they are one of the most popular tats for girls today!

Most of them are an elongated shape that is widest in the middle and tapers out to the sides. Some are a shaped like a "V" to dramatically highlight the body's natural curve. A popular choice is to get a central image surrounded by lines that branch outward. For instance, hearts, stars, butterflies, dolphins, dragons, or Celtic cross images are popular for the central focus. Vines wings, flames, or other designs that swirl and twist are popular surrounding designs. Many look kind of "tribal" in nature. For a unique twist on your lower back tattoo, it can wrap around further to the sides or even to the stomach.

Round tattoos are also a popular choice for the female lower back. This produces quite a different look, but it is still a focal point and makes an energetic statement. Generally, oblong tattoos are regarded as "sexier" or "girlier" because they do a better job of highlighting feminine curves, but the choice is up to you. Images like suns and moons are also popular.

Tattooing the lower back is a fabulous choice for a lot of reasons. First, the location offers a perfect flat canvas to work with. It's almost as if the spot was made for a tattoo. The skin back won't change much with age or weight fluctuations, so your tattoo will look great for decades and you won't have to worry about it. It's always a little suggestive to flash a tat in this location - it's like having a hidden but highly decorated piece of your skin peek out for just a second, and that's very attractive.

Bad chest tattoos

I think there is a trend of getting bad chest tattoos with bloody writing. Please tell me this isn't so, and it's just these three unfortunate dudes.


"All Hope Is Gone" -- not a very good thing to get when you're young (I cropped his face out of the photo, he looks like he is 17). Also what's the logo on the right? I assume these are bad lyrics of some sort.


"Blood Is Forever" -- I guess this is a way of celebrating family, but there is surely a much better way to do it. Also the bloody cracked Batman logo is an a+ addition there, buddy.


"Pull The Trigger Bitch" -- sdkjfhsdk I can seriously not think of a worse thing to get tattooed on your chest for all time. Do you think he will ever have sex with anyone ever again? I guess he'll just have to keep his shirt on indefinitely!

A PSA against home tattooing

I've posted some awesomely ridiculously terrible and rad stick-n-poke tattoos here in the past, and I will again. I have a soft spot for bad tattoos that friends do to each other. This one, however, is pretty inexcusable, and shows how home tattooing is generally a really really really really bad idea.



ow ow ow ow ow ow ow. This makes me hurt all over just looking at it. So scratchy!!!! I can't even imagine what it must look like healed. I think my favorite part is that he only has one eyeball.

More Zombies

Please excuse me for posting about my own tattoos so much this week, but I can't help myself! I'll post some legitimately terrible tattoos soon, don't worry!

You guys should all know by now that I am fascinated by flash tattoos and tattoos that come from the same drawing but look different. The tattoo I got on Friday was part of a Friday the 13th special, where you could get any flash zombie on a sheet for $40. I chose the classic coming-out-of-the-grave-zombie, and it turns out three of my friends went for the same thing. One of my friends and I got sxe zombies, my other two friends got the zombie as he was on the sheet. Here are all four zombies for comparison (done by three different artists, see if you can spot the two that were done by the same person).
