My DIY teenage tattoo ruined my love life – dates won’t touch me with a barge pole because it’s so trashy
A WOMAN says the ‘trashy’ teenage tattoo that she gave herself aged 17 has ruined her sex life.
Holly appeared on E4’s Tattoo Fixers, where she showcased her ‘embarrassing’ experimental inking.
“It is ruining my life,” she told tattoo artists Jay and Alice, “I can’t cope with it anymore.”
Explaining why she’d ended up with such a dodgy tat, Holly said: “When I was 17, I had just come out as a lesbian, me and my friend bought a tattoo gun online and just did tattoos on each other.
“It’s in a weird place as well, when the gynaecologist is looking they’re like ‘why have you had that?’ it’s so awkward.”
Holly then lifts up her T-shirt, exposing the ‘Eat Me’ tattoo she has on the lower part of her stomach.
She says: “It’s absolutely awful, I hate it so much – it’s just destroying every part of my sex life.”
Luckily Tattoo Fixer Alice was on hand to cover it up, with Holly opting for a feminine lotus flower design.
