Sick and tired of the same old tattoo ideas that everyone seems to have? Come see Helena Fernandes, and she'll fix you up with the ugliest, most horrible tattoos you've ever seen.
The 26-year-old artist of Salvador de Bahia, Brazil, is the proud founder of Malfeitona, a home studio providing what she describes in Portuguese as tatuagens peba (literally "ugly tattoos") with complete honesty. The girl can't draw to save her life, but she harnesses this lack of skill to carve out a niche for herself as a purveyor of original and unique tattoos. Not only has the tattoo artist gone viral for it, but she's also managed to build a successful business with dozens of 5-star reviews from happy customers, as well as over 12 thousand Instagram followers.
Check out some of her ugly-but-cool tattoos below, and let us know if you'd book a flight to Brazil to get one of these delightfully hideous inks put on you for life by the best tattooist ever.

My kid has this one. Oh, wait... No, someone else in his kindergarten drew it on his arm lol
It looks like it has some special magic glitter ink ot it, but I think that it just the shine from Neosporin or something. Still, cute!!
I'm not going to lie, now I kinda want to see more tattoos of snakes with a mustache.
Ouch. It's really bony there, can't imagine how much that hurt!
I would get that cute little creature i don't know what that word is ... ?
Some of the line work on some of them is actually ok....then this one popped up
Future regret is a feeling that is easy to cultivate.
Agreed. And there's an awful lot of it being cultivated these days.
People always regret.. if they do it, years later they will regret doing it. If they don't do it, years later they will regret not doing it.
gonna edit and put this in front of a deep philosophical picture, print it, frame it and hang it on my wall.
Not gonna lie I kinda like them. They're so bad they are good.
Some of them are amazing but I wouldn't get one :D
Yeah
Totally!i think that this is even more difficult for the artist to do ugly ones than averages.This is original, never done before, and sarcastic and critical: a true artist!
True artist, are you serious? :p
Even more difficult? Are you serious? There's no art here and absolutely no talent needed. 15 seconds and the "design" is ready. Not original, not "so bad it's good", these are just bloody awful.

art don't have to look good, wanna talk art philosophy? this is original, never done before, and sarcastic and critical: the definition of art, you might no like it but you can't say it's not art. Did you saw the caducee?the serpent who bite his tail? if you don't know it i understand your reaction but this is art to do that on such symbols
I'd love to talk art philosophy with you. Please, teach us.
Some of them are ok, but if i were to make an artistic statement i wouldnt make it on people' s bodies where i stays forever.
Not sure I would want a tattoo where you stay forever.
There is no edit button, i am well aware of my typos@.@
It doesn't stay forever, just until your body decomposes :)
