USA — “Graveyard Beard” Facial Tattoo
What happened: A man proudly shared his freshly inked “graveyard beard” on Facebook a bold tattoo stretching from ear to ear across his lower face. The design features gravestones, crosses, gates, an ominous tomb, and a gnarly tree extending up to his cheekbone.
Public reaction: The post triggered a wave of backlash on Reddit’s “S**ty Tattoos” thread. Commenters were merciless:
“[Any semblance of a normal life depends on whether he could grow a beard to hide it.]”
“Look REAL close and you can see his future buried in that mess…” Many also questioned the execution, calling it “artless” and warning it could ruin his job prospects.
Takeaway: The tattoo’s highly visible, unsettling design paired with poor artistic execution provoked concern over its social and professional impact.
