With the popularity of tattoos these days you need to be careful. Just because you think the tattoo design is cool and you want it think about tattoos gone wrong. Once you get the tattoo it is there forever, unless you get it removed and that can be more costly and painful than getting the tattoo in the first place. Think long and hard about the tattoo design that you want and decide if it is something that you want on your body for the rest of your life.

Here are 7 examples of tattoos gone wrong. Stay away from these tattoo mistakes.

1. Getting a tattoo that is too small. Some might think that it is the opposite but it isn't. The smaller the design the less detail you will be able to have in your tattoo design.

2. Getting the name of boyfriends or girlfriends. I had to find this out the hard way. I hate to say this but more likely than not the tattoo will outlive the relationship. Then you will have to walk around with someones name tattooed on your body or get it covered up.

3. Getting a tattoo on your neck can be an example placement of tattoos gone wrong. Later you might regret getting a tattoo there and you'll be walking around with a turtle neck in the summer.

4. Tattoos on your face. Unless you have a source of income where you work for yourself, I wouldn't recommend going to an interview with a tattoo on your face.

5. People getting too many tribal tattoo designs. Tribal tattoo designs were a big thing but not that it is dying down you might has some regret looking like a tribal tattoo poster boy or girl. Go easy with the tribal designs.

6. Getting too many tattoos period. Just getting tattoos all over just to get them is a good example of tattoos gone wrong. Keep some kind of rhythm with your tattoo designs. If not then your tattoos will look like a mess rather than any thing good to look at.

7. The drunk tattoo. If you have been drinking then keep yourself out of the tattoo shops. Every tattoo design might look cool when you are drunk but remember that you will have to sober up some time and you may not like your tattoo design anymore. These are always a regret.

But the biggest mistake of tattoos gone wrong is not doing your research for the best tattoo design first. Take you time a make sure you get a tattoo design that you will love and brag about for the rest of you life. Get a tattoo design with some meaning behind it. Tattoo mistakes happen everyday. Don't let it happen to you.
