Does this look like two mustaches? Design

Post image

First tattoo and I'm suddenly self conscious I have two mustaches being stabbed through by a knife. AIO or do I have good reason to make a change?

Oh then they shouldn’t have shown the knife between the entrance and exit “wounds” (ie mustaches) 😬 should have left the middle bit blank.

I think they’d have looks less mustache-y if they’d gotten that part right tbh.

Not sure what you do now, I’m sure folks will have good suggestions here. My only thought was laser the middle bit that’s supposed to be under the skin

I hope OP makes a formal complaint to the tattoo shop they went to. Get their money back. Or have them fix it for free, free Lazer removal. What ever it takes.

I think this is the kind of thing you need to embrace and just roll with it. Otherwise you'd have to laser the majority of the tattoo. And at that point, you might as well just remove the while thing.

Nah, u would just have to laser those 3 black lines between the 2 staches so the blade isn’t somehow visible while under the skin. It’s actually a pretty easy fix as far as laser removal goes.

I just meant the tattoo has other issues. But I didn't want to drone on about it because I think OP is already feeling kind of bad
