Source: A screencap from my friend’s iPod/Instagram Submitter comment: Dat blowout. For someone who’s successful in the entertainment industry, you’d think he’d have enough common sense to just not f*ck up his ears. How it can be fixed: Downsizing, and stretching back SLOWLY, sea salt soaks, oil massages or maybe even having the blowout surgically taken off.

(SOURCE) SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: An old friend recently added me on facebook, so I went through her pictures to see what she had been up to the last couple years and I stumbled upon this. WHAT’S AWFUL: Everything! Having your friend (a complete unprofessional) tattoo you in the unsanitary environment that is your home. The lines are simply horrid; her friends also support her and her...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: This is one of the most famous Tokyo street style icons. It’s not the first time she has awful-looking piercings, her body, especially her chest, is covered with scars from previous rejected piercings.She wears them until they get badly infected, she takes them out and then she gets another one and so it continues.
WHAT’S AWFUL: Wrong jewelry for a...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: Just browsing the Facebook news feed and a friend posted this picture of his girlfriend.
WHAT’S AWFUL: Look at those lines! It looks like The feather is a completely different tattoo, there is nothing good about this.

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: I don’t have source because this is just a story;
but in middle school there was this girl who ended up getting suspended because one day she pulled a thumb tack out of the bulletin board and proceeded to pierce people’s cartilage with it. And it didn’t stop there. I walked into history class and someone had their leg up on the table and she was...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: Came across some girl from my school on facebook. Found this gem.
WHAT’S AWFUL: For one, this was done when she was in 9th grade, making her 14. That isn’t legal here in Canada, even with parental consent. Secondly, this is done is someone’s dirty kitchen. Yeah he is wearing gloves but it is still being done in an unsanitary enviornment.

Education is key!
SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: Tonight I was at a Say Anything show in rural PA, and I had my non-pierced non-tattooed boyfriend with me. He did not know me when I had stretched ears, but he has watched me look at AM for a while now, and heard me complain in the past. Tonight at the show I saw a girl with ATROCIOUS blowouts, but was being polite and not saying anything. A few minutes after I noticed...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: This girl is 16 years old and tattoos herself and her friends. The first picture is one she did on and friend and the second picture is her babies name that she did on herself. She’s underage and not a professional. She does these tattoos at her house/her friends houses in unsterile environments.
WHAT’S AWFUL: The wonky line and...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: From her Tumblr: “Just proving to a tumblr anon that my book tattoo does not look like a drunk dude did it in a poorly lit basement.”
Supposed to be a book with the Chanel logo on one cover and RK for Rilo Kiley on the other. The lettering to the side doesn’t look that clean either.
WHAT’S AWFUL: Despite her saying it wasn’t,...

My own septum horror.
So, I was only 14 and desperately wanted another piercing to accompany my two lip piercings (that were done at a great shop in the UK) but my parents wouldn’t let me, so what did I decide to do? I decided that when I went on holiday, I would go off on my own and get my septum pierced, yes!
No… The first place I went to looked very clean, everything was in sterile packaging and that...

SUBMITTER’S COMMENT: An acquaintance posted a picture of herself, I’ve always liked her style, so I decided to take a look at her other pictures…and I saw this pic.
WHAT’S AWFUL: First of all, I know NOTHING about stretching (it’s just something I don’t care about :v) but this looks just wrong… I mean they’re dirty, not even proper...
lionessonacheesegrater asked: Hi- not really a question but a note of thanks! I had my ears pierced with a gun about 12 years ago, and while one was fine the other ear was pierced at an angle and I couldn't put earrings in. I finally got them repierced yesterday and thanks to this blog I was able to choose a reputable piercing studio (Cold Steel in Camden, London) and had a great experience. I'm so pleased with my...

Health violations uncovered at local tattoo... →
Local news story to where I am (the shop I went to had zero violations, I’m pleased to say) that just underscores why you need to research your shop.
Research of a shop goes BEYOND just making sure the artists are skilled and an autoclave is present; they should be displaying certificates showing that they pass health inspections or should provide proof if asked.
Out of 13 local shops,...

I don’t have a photo to submit and I’m a new follower to your blog as well. I just wanted to share a piercing story of my own.
Last summer I went to a respectable shop in my town to get surface hip piercings. I didn’t do as much research as I should have and I have to say my experience wasn’t a good one. The piercer himself was licensed and understood what he was doing,...

Today my mom told me a story about how one of her coworker’s husband does tattoos from their home. Also that he tattooed his wife with “ink” from a melted down chess piece.. A CHESS PIECE. How do people even think of these things? I immediately thought of this blog.

SUBMITTER COMMENT: Saw this on my friend’s facebook the other night. This is the second piece his friend has done on him, but this is the worst of the two. I don’t know if his friend tattoos out of a shop or home, but her gallery of drawings is full of work like this (wonky lines, weird proportion, etc.). It’s supposed to be Harley Quinn but it looks like a child drew...

I feel like submittig my own story concerning lobe piercing at unsanitary shops, after seeing so many people in my environment (and on the internet) making the same mistake.
When I was a young girl, I desperately wanted earrings, so one day my mum decided to go to a local jeweller with me. It’s a reputable shop - but only relating to jewellery. My mum didn’t know a lot about...

SUBMITTER COMMENT: Sorry no pictures, this took place at my work place! So upon sitting at my desk two girls in my office came over to chat to me about the piercings in my ear. I happily chatted to them, and gave them this link to this blog as they were thinking of increasing the amount they have already. One took a look at this blog and upon the advice here sought out a reputable piercing and had...

What’s awful: Both pokemon look extremely deformed, Pikachu’s head looks inflated and I’m not even sure what’s going on with quilava’s legs and neck. The colouring looks like its been done in felt tips. How it can be fixed: Rework? Cover-up? Going to an...

(SOURCE) SUBMITTER COMMENT: So I was just browsing Facebook when I came across this piece of trash. He’s posted several other ‘freehand’ works of art, including “F**K THE POLICE!” sprawled across someone’s arm. Seriously. WHAT’S AWFUL: I can’t even tell what this is supposed to be because of the wonky lines. The placement is terrible and the ink is...

SUBMITTER COMMENT:
About a week ago, the girl who did this tattoo posted that she was going to do a tattoo to make some money. I hid her from my newsfeed since she DOESN’T listen to reason and I didn’t want to start a fight. Well, I checked back and she went through with giving this poor guy a tattoo. She asked not to be criticized since she’s still practicing....

the terrors of YouTube
I was attempting to do some research so that I could ask the right questions when I went to get my septum pierced. This is what I found instead…
What’s awful: These kids are all encouraging people to pierce themselves in unclean, unsanitary environments with unsterile equipment and no professional piercing experience. Not only are there some using safety pins and sewing needles, but...

sleepingtaboo asked: Hello, I live in Florida Miami and I would really like to know if any one has either been to Phat Joe's tattoo parlor or either Green Machine. I'm very uncertain about the two, I have seen both of their portfolio but I kinda wanna hear others opinion the two. I'm planing to have a tattoo on the back of my neck but I just don't know which shop is better for a tattoo job.
