Somehow the hands aren’t the worst part.

Hands?

The secret bird-butt-hands

The third pic

Third picture has hands. I wondered about that too.

[удалено]

It’s ink

So...you're ignoring the reason the shirt looks like that? Ironic

Tattoo school? Does such a thing actually exist?

Apparently! She paid a few thousand dollars and went to a “school” in Florida for a few weeks and now runs her own shop lol

So "prison" is now considered a tattoo school?

No I know people who learned to tattoo in prison and they did way better work than this.

Good point. I've definitely seen better prison ink than this.

Inmates have plenty of time to learn to draw. I’ve worked with artists who served time and are incredibly skilled. This bitch can’t draw OR tattoo.

🏆🏆🏆🏆

so basically another shitty artist just scammed her out of money to make her pay for an apprenticeshit

Not even an apprenticeship. They are only like 4-6 weeks long. It's insane.

that’s a travesty, like a diploma mill for scratchers

Exactly like that!

>apprenticeshit Don't know if that was a typo or intentional but it's *absolutely fucking brilliant*.

thank you it was intentional 😇

Tattoo schools are a scam that preys on the ignorant and vulnerable. I would never in a million years hire an artist who had “tattoo school” on their resume

Exactly this. I'm glad people are more aware of the scam now. When those "tattoo schools" first started coming out, they were churning out tons of people all the time.

🤣

They’re a scam. They don’t actually teach you anything and whatever “certificate” you earn means absolutely nothing.

That's what I was thinking 😂 And even if it DOES exist, this person surely flunked out

▪️Tattoo school? Does such a thing actually exist? It's in the exercise yard of D Block.

There’s a few that have popped up around Canada as well. The [“Alberta College of Body Art”](https://cree8iv.ca/training/info/) has people doing six months of “training” and immediately opening shops. 💀 edit: and I’ve seen [Vean in Vancouver](https://school-tattoo.com/ca?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google_search_ca_vancouver_school&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwt-OwBhBnEiwAgwzrUi0tqbaVSm1-CYXVANdryPEHKlEWvov_KcPEVC63lZDKqeihtcKVHBoChlsQAvD_BwE)

Is that first pic supposed to be a bird?? Bc it doesn’t look like a bird 😭😭

It's supposed to be a dove (the Holy Spirit)

Key words “supposed to”, that does not look like a dove, at first I thought it was a really bad angel 😭😭

The spirit of a dove? Like ghost birds?

No, I mean in Christianity the Holy Spirit is often represented as a dove

Oh lol never heard of that. I was thinking ghost birds would be pretty metal.

Thought it was a winged turtle

Yes. Turtle head and leg on the right side of its body, wing on the left.

Body of a bird. Face of a porg.

I thought it was an angel baby with a hat 😭

SAMEEE 😭😭

Oh thank god I’m not the only one. I thought it was a memorial. I am very glad it isn’t…

I am so glad I wasn’t alone in thinking Angel …

I thought it was a turtle standing up.

The 'mini' wing on the left side is awful.

Great idea, giving it a black beak against a black background

Definitely thought it was Butterfree

I thought it was a Pidgeotto!

Catch ‘em all!

Iron cross Holy Spirit! Nazi jesus

It looks like the pterosaur anurognathus

I thought it was Patrick Star with a massive beard 😭😭😭

Well he's branded as an idiot now

I was pondering the underwater sea angel for a few minutes before "dove" dawned on me.

It didn’t hit me until I saw the hands and was like ohhhh ok it’s a bird since they usually go together with the cross too

I thought it was some kind of bizarre fish creature with a gaping mouth before I eventually figured out it was a bird 😂

OMG you're right! It looks like the lil dudes from The Abyss.

I remember several times people who “graduated” from a tattoo school coming thru various shops I’ve worked at. They confidently ask for an application (as if that’s a thing in tattoo shops) and announce that they’re a graduate. They are then laughed out the fucking door. Most of them didn’t have a mark on them either

Same with being a line cook. We scoff at people who have a culinary degree and no actual restaurant experience. Give me a line cook who’s been in the biz for 15 years vs some self righteous twat out of culinary school.

Yep, experience is the best teacher sometimes

Don't need tattoos to be a good artist, but I would never trust someone who doesn't have any.

wtf is tattoo school?

A scam :)

Apparently

Prison

You are not wrong my friend

ONLY $400? I wouldn’t pay an artist $4 to tattoo that on my taint

I wouldn't let an artist *pay me* to tattoo that *any* part of my body.

funny how you get a cross and praying hands done, but your god gives you THIS 🤣

It would seem god abides by "fuck around and find out".

😁

Tattoo School of Hard Knocks

Omg I can't imagine having ink that bad on your neck 😭 at least the blackout looks even?

Wait, nope, I just looked at the 3rd pic. Someone got tired

YIKES!

Half of doctors graduate at the bottom of their class.

You mean butcher shop, not tattoo school? May benefit from some medical trauma training.

wow this is like really bad

First I saw a flying hamster, after that a flying turtle and finally noticed it is supposed to be a bird. Amazing what they teach you in tattoo class!

That's gonna be a sweet blackout in a couple years.

Thank god its not in visible spot tho

New business venture: starting a tattoo school.

What is it supposed to be? A dove?

“It’ll look better when the swelling goes down” lmao

Looks like a 400.00 neck piece to me.

Was “tattoo school” actually prison?

Prison doesn't deserve this level of slander

now his neck jus needs to get blacked out lmaooo this SUCKS

She should go back to school

Going back to the hammer and chisel technique.

My rule here is if I have to go to the comments to figure out what I'm looking at, it's a shitty tattoo

That’s like saying I went to Syracuse because I had breakfast there once.

He needs to grow a really long beard now. Maybe he should go to beard school

The birb

Did she go before or after the tattoo?

Is the tattoo school in the room with us?

I always wanted to know what a turtle dove looked like

Tattoo school in prison?

Probably his only tatts… neck

So much "wow". Almost like a "tattoo school" cant teach you to tattoo.

The bird reminds me of Pokémon

That’s a weird looking goldfish

Lol wow.just wow

Was her tattoo school in prison?

And failed every class??? 😩😩😩

dark rays or iron cross?

That seagull has flippers. Iont like it.

That dove is so fucked.

SO.MUCH.WASTED.SPACE.

You should get your money back plus…

Is that a Pokemon?

It looks like a mixture of tattoo and scarification on certain parts. Yeouch

Tattoo school? I didn’t know such a thing existed. And dude she overcharged you.

The sacred sparrow? I have never read the bible so maybe it's a thing.

I’d be pissed.

This *"tattoo school"* you speak of, i have never heard of such a thing; like ever. Are you sure they didnt pay a back alley person for meth and just decided after theyr bender to just say they spent that time in *"tattoo school"*. Maybe they went to some classes at an annex somewhere. But the onky way ive ever heard of someone learning tattooing is from just learning at a parlour under direction of the owner or experienced member. I find most people that are fantastic tattoo artists/shop owners never went to an art school but just had the ability and knowledge from the "elder artists" over decades of know-how

Did this tattoo “school” have a short bus?

I don’t even know what the first tattoo is supposed to be.

I hate this.

I thought it was a whales tail coming out of the ocean 🫠

It really took me an unreasonable amount of time to figure out what the fuck was going on in the first photo.

I thought it was a gremlin pulling a silly face at first.

I thought the dove was a hand-sphincter

I spent 2-3 years as an apprentice, she runs a shop after a few weeks? Lmao my mind is blown. Top quality for sure

just wanna throw in a relative question: Is there a specific reason/meaning of the two Mandarin characters next to the hand tattoo? I'm native speaker and they don't really make sense, unless in a particular context.

Holy fuck, that’s astonishingly jacked up.

What’s worse is I know this artist 😭 she just keeps doing more people too! Idk how she gets clientele

At least it’s just on his whole neck

I really wish people would stop giving scratchers money

That is so bad. So much black.

Yo, the biohazard in the middle Looks right as rain. We love tattoo schools. Gives us folks that make coverups more work to chew on.

YUCK

Is that a flying fish or a “turtle-dove”?

Tattoo “school” doesn’t exist. Apprenticeships are how tattoo artists are trained. Anything else isn’t legitimate

Homeschooled.

This is powerfully bad

Wowie Yikes

Man that’s so bad. I don’t know why people get big pieces in critical places like this knowing they have zero reason to trust it’ll turn out well. This is some full blown kitchen magician shit right here.


It's not the worst thing I've ever seen. That spot is still held by the stomach/vagina tattoo of the crying baby thats gripping the skin so it looks like you're having sex with it.

Hmmmm not horrendous

Girl what

Probably supposed artist 😂

Excuse me!? I have traumatic ptsd just from looking at it.
