GETTING a matching tattoo with your best friend may seem like a sweet tribute, but for one woman it became a living nightmare when their inking ended up looking X-rated.
TikTok user Alaina Nicole, whose profile is @lanicole001, shared her story on the social media platform alongside video footage of the identical rude tattoos.
As she recorded herself with her head in her hands, Alaina wrote: “When you try to get cute matching bestie tattoos and you get two limp d****s instead!”
Alaina then revealed what had happened and how she cried for an hour when she saw the results of the butterfly inking they’d asked for.
She explained: “Long story short, when we were on vacation, me and my best friend wanted to get matching tattoos.
“We did look up the shop, we did research on it, and we know people who have got work done there, [so] it was a reputable shop.

“I just want to preface by saying we don’t blame the artist, we don’t blame the shop, unfortunately we had a bad experience but nothing against them.
“But on the flipside to that, I don’t think there’s any way that the artist didn’t know what it looked like before.
“Clearly it wasn’t a butterfly, we knew that as soon as we saw them as we walked out of the shop.”
Continuing to recall their exact reaction, Alaina said: “The first picture I saw of it was in the video and I started sobbing.

“I cried for probably an hour after I saw the tattoo on my arm.”
As soon as they could, Alaina and her pal set about getting it removed from their bodies.
She continued: “We flew home Saturday night, Sunday morning immediately got them covered.
“Because everyone we called that day to show the tattoo to agreed that it did not look like a butterfly.
“We knew we had to get it off of our bodies. We found an amazing artist who covered it up very last minute.”

Thankfully, the pair are now happy to have matching tats, as Alaina said: “We do still have our matching best friend tattoos and a great story to laugh about some day when it’s finally funny – because when it happened it for sure was not.”
