Tattoo, or not tattoo, that is the question
“We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret”, said someone we’ve actually never heard of before. But taking into account the fact that regretting a tattoo – which, let’s face it, is one of the most painful things you can do to your body - actually fulfils both of these evils may go some way in illustrating just how determined people are to go through with its removal. And according to an American study from 2006, a whopping fifth of people are estimated to be unhappy with their tattoos! But just what are the reasons for regretting something you once deemed so important so as to permanently brandish your body with it?
Bad art. Perhaps one of the most annoying reasons to get rid of the thing you wanted so badly comes down, simply, to a terribly executed tattoo. Because let’s face it, no matter how much it hurt physically, it’s going to hurt a whole lot more emotionally to have a word permanently misspelled on your arm or something which looks like something it wasn’t supposed to look at. Mis-translated phrases in other languages counts too, by the way. (A question of taste, maybe, but Cheryl Cole may also want to rethink the entire rose garden she adorned half of her body with. Just sayin’.)
Bad romance. Imagine getting the name of your sweetheart inked on your bicep, only to find the relationship didn’t go the distance after all. Totally ga ga.
Bad taste. Who would have thought your taste in music, fashion or, y’know, life in general, would change so dramatically? No, I don’t think a huge tat of Linkin Park represents who I am anymore, thank you very much. In a similar vein, imagine dedicating a piece of your body to a celebrity that later turns out to do something awful (we can’t imagine many chose to have Jimmy Savile inked on their body, but you get the drift.).
New job. Not bad – in fact, very good, but we’re not quite sure the military or the NHS would quite appreciate a new employee with body art. Especially if it’s of the rude kind.
The morning after. Not just true of the movies, sometimes people do make the rash decision to permanently ink their body after just one too many drinks or being pressured into it by friends when feeling vulnerable. Hey, we don’t judge.
Feuds. Some will agree to have it removed for the sake of a partner, whilst others will feel compelled to do so once they have children.
Fades. A lesser-known fact, perhaps, but even the highest-quality tattoo will fade eventually.
Red faced. Fifty-seven per cent of people in the American study suffered embarrassment as the general reaction to their much-desired body art was not what they imagined. Similarly, a quarter experienced stigma.
Update. That’s not to say that all tattoos are removed as a sign of rejection; you may feel that you fancy a change, so choose to remove a certain tattoo only to replace it with another one. (But be aware that you’ll have to wait a while before re-tattooing the same area).
