When they go wrong it can be disastrous, and one woman has found that out in the absolute worst way after a blackout neck tattoo changed the shape of her face, she claimed.
The woman posted on her TikTok account (@spaceatmidnight) where she showed her followers her new ink, though it's clear she has some regrets.
Her upper cheeks, lower chin, and half of her neck are completely blacked out with fresh ink. "I’m having a whole entire identity crisis… because it slightly alters the shape of my face," she began while holding off tears.
Even though it seems like a bizarre decision but she says that she thought of getting this tattoo for a long time and that she even drew and painted it on herself to see if she liked it.
But that's where the problems began, as she would always draw it below her jawline whereas the tattoo artist inked it on slightly above.

"It’s on my actual face," the woman went on. "I feel like my face is smothering into my neck." The caption of the video asks viewers to give her good news, which some were on hand to do.
"Breathe in and let go. This has happened, it will look better when the swelling goes down. This moment will pass and you will be okay," one user wrote.
