Tattoos That Prove You Can’t Trust Everyone With Your Body

Letting someone tattoo you means you give them all the trust in the world.

Tattoos are pretty much permanent, so you had better hope there won't be any mistakes. Sure, you can always try and get it covered up or removed, but that's more pain, and it isn't always going to look like you want it to. Here are some of the worst tattoos ever that prove you shouldn't trust people so easily.

Hershey's Kiss?

A Hershey's Kiss done properly has a ton of potential. This little number has no sense of imagination and looks like something else entirely.

Maybe this person should get this one covered up.

Sadly, it might be tough for him to achieve that with that tattoo. Is it acting as an eyebrow replacement?
