Finger mustache tattoos are a “stupid idea,” according to Dobby[/caption]

One of the design trends Dobby says “should have never happened” is the popular infinity symbol.

“There is an infinite amount of artists that hate doing this f**king tattoo,” Dobby says.

“It seems to be the infinity symbol has been used as a spacer for ‘I don’t know what the f**k I want.'”

Dobby adds that those who choose this tattoo seem to always get it “in the worst place available.”

“Listen, no human body is perfectly symmetrical, so no matter where you place this thing, it’s gonna look off, and for this type of tattoo, placement is damn near everything,” the artist claims.

Nautical stars designs are also included in Dobby’s list, as the artist claims making a perfectly symmetrical star isn’t as easy as one would think.

“Nautical stars are not a good idea, they’ve never been a good idea, and they will never be a good idea.

“There are a million and a half things that you can put on your body permanently and share your story but instead, you pick a star… a nautical star,” says a frustrated Dobby.

Finger mustache tattoos also made it on the artist’s list’ he calls them a “stupid idea,” especially because fingers are high-fade areas.

“I think this tattoo makes the Steve-Os around the world very proud,” Dobby says referencing the Jackass star.

The artist is also not a fan of skeleton hands tattoos, saying he doesn’t understand how it was ever a trend.

While Dobby says this tattoo can look quite good if done by someone who knows what they’re doing, that’s not always the case and often these look like a “Halloween costume.”

“When Uncle Randy decides to do it in his basement, it ends up looking like you have crusty Cheeto fingers for the rest of your life.”

Dobby has more than 600,000 followers on TikTok and his videos have collected millions of likes.
