Don’t fall asleep while getting a tattoo
An 18-year-old girl is suing a tattoo artist for about $20,000 because he covered half her face in black stars. She said she asked for only three stars on the side of the face and fell asleep during the tattooing. When she woke up, she found her face to look like the above photo.
The tattoo artist maintains that she asked for the tattoos and does not regret doing it, but says he would pay for half of the stars to be removed.
Question- how do you fall asleep getting a tattoo on your face? Isn’t that shit painful?

I understand it should be painfull for her but…. HUAHUHAHUHAUHUHAUAUAUAHUHAUHAHUHAUUAUAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
My stomach….
There’s a new story out where she admits that she lied because her dad was furious. The tattoo artist has retracted his offer to fix her face.
Not that I’m totally impressed, but this is a lot more than I expected when I stumpled upon a link on Delicious telling that the info here is quite decent. Thanks.
p.s. Year One is already on the Internet and you can watch it for free.
I can’t help but smile about the whole thing… as a tattoo artist, I literally cannot COUNT how many teenage girls come into the shop wanting to get stars: one spot that’s become popular is behind the ear, for whatever reason… I don’t know if they think it’s, “cute,” or if they are trying to emulate Kat Von D or whatever… trendy tattoos make me want to retch, however. I think this story is the ultimate proof of how STUPID an idea it is to get such a trite, overused, recycled, rehashed and simplistic design put on your simply because it looks, “cute.” Might as well have some scratcher in the back of Hot Topic to do these postage-stamp tattoos for all the meaningfulness they hold for the recipient. And, speaking as an individual who has his ENTIRE FACE tattooed–three sittings, about ten hours, total–there is no. Frigging. WAY she, “fell asleep,” while getting her face done, so bullshit-point awarded there. Plus, if the tattoo artist had even the barest SHRED of morality/ethics, he would’ve refused to tattoo a teenager in such a visible area, ESPECIALLY if it’s her 1st tattoo. So… fault all around, it looks like.
HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY….SHE WAS ON DRUGGGGGSSS….WHEN SHE TOLD HIM TO DO IT…..SHE SAID…((…”DO MY FACE…LIKE….TYSON’S..
AND THEN PASSED OUT…!!!….)))….THAT TELLS HOW IT HAPPENED….!!!………..OOOOOOOOOO…….K
……THE END…!!!………….
Maybe the tattoo artist misunderstood her, b/c technically the stars on her face look like they are in the shape of the number 3
oh and it would of been funnier if it were a penis on her forhead.
HA!HA!HA!HA! no what thats not funny oh ya it is. HA!HA! what a retard!!!!
shes fucked
If she gets this money, I’m going to start suing everyone for me being fat.
…THis…is odd.
Sleeping? I think not. Wasted? That’s more likely. Either way, face tatoos are a bad idea anyway.
AH HA HA!!! They just showed Jimmy Fallen with the same face tattoo on Late Night.
no fucking way did she fall asleep! i’m a tattoo artist and i have never had any of my clients fall asleep. no way, didnt happen.
Hey sister…you wanted to grab people’s attention with a face tattoo..well you got your wish!
P.S Did anyone see the guy who gave her the tattoo? Holy crap,talk about starving for attention! It looks like someone hit him in the face with a tackle box!
Ha, it’s funny ’cause it’s true.
This is total BS as a tattoo artist I have always asked a few times are they sure they want this picture and are they sure of the location. Not just once minimum three times. Their is no possible way she even thought about falling asleep she might have blacked out/passed out then every artist i know stops working and gets them back together before they even think about starting again. Oh to the other poster that said tattooing on the face illegal no just not recommended. If your 18 have cash you can get anything tattooed on you and anywhere on you.
This girl regrets her choice and wants to blame somebody else but herself. The laser removal of this is going to cost a bunch and still leave slight scaring.
That’s the thing though she made the choice can’t blame the guy doing it I would so be laughing at them in court. I ask and also have this handy form that tells you how to care for the tattoo but also says what and where on the body you got. You sign it before a needle touches your skin.
First off….she’s a lying bitch! Thank you O for pointing out the exact reasons not to believe her. How the hell you fall asleep in the first place? It doesn’t take long to prep for her dumbass tatoo and for her to fall asleep. Secondly, lets give her the benefit of the doubt she did fall asleep…ahhh (Bulltshit!) … i don’t know about anyone here but i have a tattoo and if the needle hit your skin you gonna wake yo ass up! she has what 50 + stars ….bitch please. I heard the tattoo artist is willing to pay half of her tattoo removal …. fuck that shit! i hope he doesn’t. he’s not at fault.
If someone covered my face with 30 stars instead of 3, I’d be suing for a lot more than $20K. Then again, I’m not stupid enough to get something tatoo’d on my face.
LIES!!! The face has a lot of nerves. How does someone fall asleep in the little amount of time it takes to tattoo 3 small stars. She was probably trying to go for a Kat Von D look. Also the tattooer should have said something when she fell. That makes he half liable. Estupid Americanos.
Starface FTW! Now the question is, what is she going to get tattooed on the other side of her face to balance it out?
there is a full story out there, says there was a witness who said the girl asked for the 56 tattoos. after they were put on, the girl was also happy with what she had gotten. when she got home tho, her father and boyfriend threw a huge fit about it and then guess what happened…. she started saying she only wanted 3 now and demanding all this stuff. shes a bitch. the tattoo artist is kinda at fault tho indirectly because he should of had some moral thought about “Hey, an 18 year old girl with 0 tattoos is asking me to do 56 stars on her face…. hmm idk about that one” but instead he did it. idk, girl is still a bitch anyways.
haha that just a funny story silly sleeping tattooing lady
hmmm…..I smell bullshit. I kinda feel bad for her, but can’t believe she simply fell asleep.
Bullshit, I think she’s just out for money
pwnd!
*Sniff…Sniff* I think I smell bullshit. And it’s spewing out of that dumb bitch’s mouth.
I too will laugh at this dumb broad.
hAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
I thought it was illegal in most parts of the country for a tattoo artist to do facial tattoos…
As someone said a couple of posts below this happened in Belgium (Western Europe), so it may not be illegal there.
I bet next time she falls asleep, someone’s going to grab a sharpie and draw up some constellations.
HAHAHA I was thinking that too.
Happened in Belgium and you should see the Tattooist, looks like he belongs in the Jim Rose Circus (I tried to post a link to the video of the story but it will not let me post it).
Hehehe…she was passed out probably:
1 drunken night, “I wanna hav my face look like da night sky!!!!” *barf*
*passes out while passing a couple hundreds to the tattoo guy*
Tattoo Guy “Ok, lady!”
You could say someones a little starstruck……LMFAO!Thanks for posting this Olivia.
WOW… who would want stars on their forehead??? and how can you even fall asleep… this is just wrong…
i got a tatt on my forearm and it hurt a little bit but yeah. i agree with u how can u fall asleep getting a tatt on your face! thats one of the most painful places. she musta been on some dope or something.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAAAAAA wait wait he did what & she fell asleep hahahahahahahaha oh oh ok ok my tummy hurts HAHAHA WAIT how can you fall sleep a tat on the face hurts… well thats what you get for trying to look like KAT VON D :p
Why stars?
She had to have been under some sort of outside influence to fall asleep during the ordeal, but a tattoo artist will not work with someone that intoxicated. Even then, tattoo artists make a stencil of whatever it is they’re etching, so she would have had to agree to that many stars in the first place. I have no choice but to call shenanigans, tomfoolery, hooliganisms, etc.
face tats are just plain a** dumb
I think the better lesson here would be, “Don’t get drunk and go for a tattoo.”
twinkle twinkle little star…
How does someone sleep through getting tattooed? WTH?
That looks like fucking Sharpie. Has she tried just WASHING HER FACE, maybe?! HAHAHAHAHAH
Thats awesome, a face tatoo. hahahaha too bad the tatoo isnt finish
You know what I’m calling double Shenanigans ! You know why ? One on her, and one on her family ! The family had left for ice cream, they knew she’d be there awhile, that’s why they didn’t stick around !
She’s lying. You don’t fall asleep while getting a tattoo in an area with so many nerves.
dumb bitch, that’s what u get for getting a tattoo on your face in the first place.
I’ve almost fallen asleep several times on mine. It’s a lengthy process and after the endorphins and everything kick in from the pain it’s like a full body high. It’s all about having some good music and a good mind set.
Shenanigans! The only way she could be asleep is if she was drunk off her ass and even then…… What?! she has no freakin nerve endings in her face? Regardless of a language barrier, I think anyone is capable of stopping someone from etching stars on their face after awhile. How stupid is she anyway? In another article I read about this the guy took 3 hours to do all the stars! Didn’t she get suspicious after….I don’t know…the first 2 hours???EPIC FAIL on her part!
Exactly, nutz to the language barrier. You hold up three fingers !
If this is true, she should go throw acid in the face of the tattoo artist.
If she’s lying, she should throw the acid on her own face….
I know what her worst case of buyers remorse was!
This lady is full of shit. My guess she was bombed out of her skull, paid for the tattoos and the guy agreed. Now you are not supposed to get a tattoo if you have been drinking or using, as it thins the blood and you are not in 100% control of your faculties. My guess is the tattoo guy knew she was drunk (high whatever) and did it anyway. Now he is trying to be pro-active so they don’t shut him down.
Hell Toupee can explain sleepy time. this has happened to your dear friend Hell Toupee. whilst binge drinking and competing with buddies who could take the most roofies. Hell Toupee awoke only to find a “WIN” tattoo on Hell’s very own forehead, along with what looked like a coconut and banana on his cheek. It was removed, but now only a banana scar on his cheek remains. Hell Toupee was very distraught.
