Can you imaging going to a place to get a nice and cool tattoo, and then get something you didn't ask for? This happen to Kimberley Vlaeminck, 18, a Belgian teenage girl who went to a tattoo shop to get a little tattoo done in the face (three little stars to be precise near the eye) She fell asleep during the process, she woke up and ended up with fifty six stars all over the face.
But Tattoo artist claims that "She never fell asleep and she got exactly what she had ordered"
The tattoo artist claims that the problem started when her dad walked and saw what was done in her face. We don't know who to believe, as far as I know, tattoos are painful, and there is no way someone can fall asleep
during the process, I mean, it could have happened, but is hard to believe. Now she has to live the rest of her life with those tattoos in the face.
Don't get me wrong, I like the way some tattoos look, specially if they are made by professionals. Tattoos are very artistic. The have been present since ancient times. Pretty much every major civilization had made use of this artistic form of expression, whether to distinguish social status, or to distinguish different cultures and tribes.
This cultural boom began to expand in the 1960's, when fine artists started expressing through this ancient art.
