50 Awful Tattoos Which People Thought Were A Good Idea, But They All Got Shamed In This FB Group

Sometimes, talented tattoo artists don't receive the respect and attention they merit. Some people naively believe that high-quality ink is standard.

You don't begin to appreciate outstanding ideas and techniques more than you already do until you've seen how horrible things can actually go. The Facebook page named "That's It, I'm Inkshaming" exposes the very worst tattoos to ever grace a person's body.

They subtly make light of the designs and distribute the images as a caution to everyone to carefully consider the artists they hire. There are more than 283k members in the "That's It, I'm Inkshaming" Facebook group online.

Since 2017, the group's members have been criticizing "Actually Bad Tattoos." They want to make people laugh by demonstrating how absolutely bad some designs are, whether as a result of the artist's incompetence or for inexplicable reasons. 

What the community is and isn't for is made very clear by the staff in charge of the group.

"If a tattoo isn’t your personal style, you disagree with the placement (like if you say you like tattoos because you’re super [effing] hip! But God forbid someone have a face tattoo!), if you’re only posting for attention, or if you’re trying to get validation for a tattoo on your body that you know is fine... This isn’t the place for you."

So keep scrolling for some jaw-droppingly terrible artwork.

The group is a place to post absolutely horrible tattoos so that everyone can laugh at them. However, everything is done in good humor because the joke is on the artwork itself, not the receivers of the art.

So tell us the tattoos you’d most prefer not to acquire, and let us know in the comments whether you’ve ever regretted getting any body art.
