If you think the title was something out of a 9Gag post, then you’re definitely wrong because this is 100% perfect true. A middle-aged man from South Wales woke up the morning after a rowdy bachelor party to discover he got a permanent and badly-drawn tattoo on his face—a pair of Ray-Ban fashionable sunglasses.
The hangover UK partygoer couldn’t believe his eyes when he stared in the mirror at the drawn-on sunglasses. He first thought it just marker pen around his eyes until he tried to wash it off. Then he realized it was a botched permanent tattoo job all around his eyes - even with the word “Rayban” instead of “Ray-Ban”etched wrongly into his skin.
The man in his fifties, from Swansea, South Wales, was on a stag weekend in Blackpool when he had the tattoo inked on to his face as a drunken dare. He said: “I had no memory of getting the tattoo because I had gone out celebrating and when it happened I was drunk.”
“Waking-up the morning after, I thought someone had used a permanent marker on my face,” he continued his story. “When I first came home, obviously I was subject to a lot of stares, but I kind of got used to the tattoo and decided not to get rid of it.”
But on an evening out with friends he was confronted by someone in a pub who made fun of the tattoo. He added: “The next morning I really started to think about what my family and friends thought. I didn’t want them to be embarrassed when they were out with me, so I decided there and then I was going to get it removed.”
The unnamed man went to 1192 Laser and Beauty Clinic in Swansea, South Wales, to have the removal. Owner Donnalee Alford said it was one of the worst tattoo blunders they’d ever seen.
Although the man wasn't sure if he really wanted the tattoo removed, he had the procedure carried out on a test patch and then booked a full course of treatment - but kept it a secret how much it cost to remove his blushes. The man, who doesn’t want to be named, had six treatments to make the tattoo no longer visible to the naked eye.
We could only hope that this doesn’t happen again on his nightouts.
