Getting a tattoo is life long commitment.

So when you decide to get one, best you be 100% sure about what it is you have done.

If you’re keen on getting a tattoo done but have no idea what to get, this TikTok video will help you decide what NOT to get.

A tattoo artist from Three Ravens Tattoo in Athens has posted a video captioned, “Stirring the pot. We asked tattoo artists their least favourite things to tattoo.”

The video, which has gone viral with over 3 million views, shows different tattoo artists at work as they share their opinions on the matter.

You’d be surprised by what their least favourite tattoos are.

Going around the tattoo studio she asks different tattoo artists, “What’s your least favourite thing to tattoo?”, and here’s what they had to say.

The first artist, Amy, says her least favourite thing to tattoo is the infinity symbol while another artist Dev responds “watercolour splatters”. When asked why she simply responds: “Because it’s splatters.”

Artist Christopher reckons that his least favourite thing is “coordinates” while Stephanie said that calves are her least favourite body part to tattoo because they are “really twitchy”.

Natalia, who is seen working on a client, responds “semi-colon” then laughs because she was in fact tattooing a semi-colon on the woman’s finger at the time.

Another tattoo artist Frankie says that her least favourite tattoos to do are birth flowers. “Lots of birth flowers” she adds.

So if you’re thinking of getting a tattoo, don’t get an infinity symbol or watercolour splatters.
