This Online Group Is Dedicated To The Worst Tattoos Out There, And These 65 Made Members Cringe

Tattoos have never been as popular, and tattoo artists are having the best business of their lives. It's reported that, as of 2025, there are 23,774 tattooing businesses in the U.S. alone. However, not all artists will give you the tattoo of your dreams. Some might be the culprits of your nightmares.

Bored Panda has come across the "Tattoo Fails - Bad Tattoos Only" group on Facebook that shares terrible tattoo jobs that are as absurd and sad as they are entertaining. "A place to showcase horrible tattoo work," the group proudly declares in its bio. So, get ready to cringe, Pandas, and scroll down to see the worst of the worst.
