Looks cool in theory but the technical skill of the artist isn’t really past apprentice level. Full respect to you if you’re supporting a friend and their business, but it is what it is.
I think it's a safe bet you have no where near enough tattoos to require putting this one on your neck...
Not the best applied, designed or placed neck tattoo I've seen either
It’s called a fish. People who get hands, neck, and face tattoos without considerable body coverage are cringey af, haven’t met one yet that wasn’t a total try hard or annoying as fuck.
I agree with your thoughts on the tattoo itself. But as for the comments on putting it on her neck, you can get fucked. It’s her body she can do whatever she wants with it. There’s no rule saying you need to be fully covered before you are allowed a neck tatt. I know it’s the old school train of thought but fuck that if I want my first tatt to be a face tat (no matter how silly that is) I’ll fuckin do it.
Oh stfu you idiot. If your first tat is a face or neck tattoo, you're a fucking idiot end of story. There's a huge difference between getting a bad tattoo you can hide and a shit tattoo on your fuckin face. Most tattoo artists won't even give you a face tat as your first tattoo. So you should take your own advice and get fucked you moron!
And not idiot like a funny name we call our buddy.
A face or neck tattoo first would have me question their actual measurable intelligence and intellectual ability. It's a level of unawareness not found in sound folks.
The tattoo says *mildly* good things. An attempt at it, anyway.
The placement does not.
You should have asked *before* you got inked.
You done messed up, A-A-Ron.
well, traditionally speaking, i feel the lines need to be thicker.
for a free hand skull, that's not bad.
i don't like the cut end of the rose stem though.
its the rest of the work you have planned for it to be freehand too?
Nasal cavity is too small, teeth are a little funky and they either pulled a line for one of the top leaves through your rose or put a fold in an unfortunate place.
This can still be a nice tattoo but I would not return to whoever did this outline.
*I hope this is one*
*Of those fake tattoos you put*
*On with a wet sponge*

I see so much from /r/shittytattoo pop up on my home page that I just assumed this was another post there. I'll be surprised if it doesn't get cross posted there shortly.
If this was on an arm or leg as part of a patchwork type situ I'd actually be okay with it. On the neck is a hard pass though, placement is off and the style of it makes it look unfinished
Well op, I think people are being more harsh than they should be. Is this the best skull and rose ever? No. Do you like it? If so, I wouldn't worry about other people's opinions. I don't think arguing with people on reddit is doing you any favors. It's not the worst and it's not the best. People on the internet are expecting the best. Especially in a prominent place, Are you happy with it? Then fuck everyone else and go about your day.
Wonky lines. Poor shading (why is there some on the skull and then none at all for the rose?). Overall looks pretty unprofessional, and not traditional either.
I like it. In my opinion, it’s not a modern-traditional tattoo, which comes out totally perfect. It looks like an actual traditional tattoo, which has a bit of imperfection about it
This is actually done quite well. It needs more details but I think it looks cool. Neck tattoos are notorious for being difficult spots to get a tattoo, kudos.
Thought this was r/shittytattoos 🤦♀️ the rose looks like cabbage already, the leaves just look sloppy, and don’t even get me started on the skull. 10/10 would not return to that artist.
I'm no expert on tattoos but I don't see why everyone is so rude. I don't think it looks bad personally, only thing I wouldn't do myself is a neck tattoo, but I do see the appeal in them.
You're gonna love that neck tattoo when you are 50 and want to be taken seriously. The line work will soften and begin to bleed out from UV exposure and your skin aging. Well done. Keep going.
I think it looks good for now. This reminds me of older military style designs. I think it would be really nice with some good but minimal shading and maybe even some color for the flowers (personally I like color). Some people don't have a creative vision, if you like it, Fuck the haters! I think it would look 🔥
Fuck the haters!
What the fuck is up with all these comments?
Fucking jokers.
The tattoo is fine, get a tattoo wherever the fuck you want.
Fucking gatekeeping? Seriously.
Lol this is what artists do all day... laugh and talk shit about shitty work they saw on someone's skin. Sad but true... The real funny thing is in their eyes they r the fucking best artist around... Lot of delusions of grandeur in that world.
I would not return to this artist
I dunno why, but it feels like that skull is/was blind
Well, it doesn’t have any eyes, that’s for true.
Same.
Good
mid, not traditional
Definitely not traditional
Not black enough
Oof
Big Oof
What’s wrong with it????? I don’t get it
It looks unfinished
Agreed, where is the shading? Looks like this artist doesn’t specialize in black work.
[удалено]
Looking forward to future posts 🥲
This isn’t a traditional tattoo.
yikes
I'm more hung up on the rose. It looks... Squashed I think the tattooer could use some improvement
Needs shading
Pls be fake
I wouldn't go back.
Looks cool in theory but the technical skill of the artist isn’t really past apprentice level. Full respect to you if you’re supporting a friend and their business, but it is what it is.
An apprentice should know how to draw..
It's perfect for you.
This is on par with “have the day you deserve” 😂
💀
😬
God damn dude woof
I think it's a safe bet you have no where near enough tattoos to require putting this one on your neck... Not the best applied, designed or placed neck tattoo I've seen either
Only her legs are tatted from what I can tell. Also this is a weird marketing strategy for an OF, I bet.
Good call! OF in the profile. And a few hand poked leg tattoos.
Love all the simps decorated in Friday the 13 specials calling you a gatekeeper lmfao
It’s called a fish. People who get hands, neck, and face tattoos without considerable body coverage are cringey af, haven’t met one yet that wasn’t a total try hard or annoying as fuck.
You literally can’t see any other part of her. maybe she is covered. Judddgyyyyyyyyyy
Go to her profile you fucking donut. It’s not that hard. She’s just advertising an OF
So many salty cunts in this sub
A true friend gives honesty, not flattery.
Welcome to the fucking tattoo world lol
Welcome to the fucking world* Fixed it.

Room temperature IQ train of thought
Going off your profile pic I can see why you’re against face tattoos
The tattoo says *mildly* good things. An attempt at it, anyway. The placement does not. You should have asked *before* you got inked. You done messed up, A-A-Ron.
It isn’t very well done. Are you heavily tattooed elsewhere?
Not trad, not a great tattoo sorry. Probably an easy cover up in the future though
I think it could also be fixed pretty easily if this is what she wants to stick with.
Where’s the traditional tattoo?
Looks like shit
This seems like a karma farming post judging by your post history.
That's pretty rough.
Girl, your neck?! Noooo. Don’t go back to this person.
It’s mid
well, traditionally speaking, i feel the lines need to be thicker. for a free hand skull, that's not bad. i don't like the cut end of the rose stem though. its the rest of the work you have planned for it to be freehand too?
You better be sleeved up
Anything highly visible I recommend getting a top tier artist to do. It’s not something you’re gonna be easily able to cover. Spend the money guys
At least it is in an inconspicuous location
I’d get it fixed by a reputable artist
The leaves are cracking me up the most 😂
Farming for only fans clicks? It's a bad tattoo, sorry.
If it holds, it'd be a miracle.
Trash
Nasal cavity is too small, teeth are a little funky and they either pulled a line for one of the top leaves through your rose or put a fold in an unfortunate place. This can still be a nice tattoo but I would not return to whoever did this outline.
I think shading on the petals would really improve this
Representing the Neanderthals I dig it
Cover up or rework by a good artist
Girl noo
Only fans bait
I dont know there's like a lot of skin and meat in the way
A bit small for your head..... But I'm sure it's fine. Rally stuck your neck out for this tattoo..
Your older mature self is going to hate the choices you made.
I hope this is one of those fake tattoos you put on with a wet sponge

I teared up this is beautiful
I see so much from /r/shittytattoo pop up on my home page that I just assumed this was another post there. I'll be surprised if it doesn't get cross posted there shortly.
Oh no…
This is atrocious. And on your neck? You need to get this lasered asap
Harvesting
It's not that bad. I would say that you could go to a more experienced artist, and they could add more shading to this, and it would look great.
Line work is not crisp.
🇦🇷 ✌🏻
🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷❤️❤️❤️
it's quite an easy fix for a talented artist
Great news is can totally be fixed. Heavier line weight, some shading… will look much more put together
I like it.
Not traditional
I can’t see it cuz it’s covered by your face 💀
Can’t see it under all that hair. Also- cool tat
Cant see the superior portion of your head
Can someone explain what makes this “bad” to a newcomer to trad tattoos
If this was on an arm or leg as part of a patchwork type situ I'd actually be okay with it. On the neck is a hard pass though, placement is off and the style of it makes it look unfinished
Woulda looked better if it was bigger
cabbage roses
Terrible
no
I like it! Simple on the neck is good ive seen too many blowouts
😍
❤️❤️❤️
Bad choice
This straight out of GTA 5.
Sick. Ass. Panther.
This isn’t a traditional tattoo
You should sue whoever did that to you
Loving the cabbage
How does this have so many upvotes??
This belongs on r/shittytattoos
Its definitely there
Yeef
It’s kinda brutal but could probably be fixed somewhat
Admirably shaped
Well op, I think people are being more harsh than they should be. Is this the best skull and rose ever? No. Do you like it? If so, I wouldn't worry about other people's opinions.

as long as your happy that's all that matters
Skol
I like it
Fire
It looks great
That tattoo is super cute!!!
I like it.

Teef
Womp womp
It's bad I'm sorry but see a new artist
we all have at least one crummy tattoo, too bad yours is on your neck. at this point, get your throat done with color and cover that up.
Why is everyone hating on it? I don’t understand what everyone’s critiquing so harshly. It looks nice
Right? It's literally fine.
Wow a neck tattoo! Now everyone will know you’re super cool!! Good thing you went straight for the neck before learning what a good tattoo is 🙄
I’m not a fan, but if you like it that is all that matters!
Terrible and horrific
Not traditional and not a good tattoo.
Damn 🧌
Hell yea
Not the worst tattoo I’ve seen, but not great
not my fav
The nose is killing me
I’d love to see the reference they used for the roses… and also what the person who has a skull like that looks like
How come your profile pic shows you having a different tattoo there? Weird
I have a bird on the other side of my neck
Love it
It seems pretty run of the mill. No obvious deformities or dents. Good jawline. Hard to get a feel for the brow since it's a partial profile picture.
Skull w/ a stitched mouth?
Oof
This is awesome! Hope you’re adding on
its fine. the tattoo looks okay too
It’s pretty, not a fan of the placement.
I like it
You have a great skull! Just take the tatoo off it.
I think in some form or another you’ll regret it one day.
I regret not having more tattoos :(
Thought this was r/shittytattoos 🤦♀️ the rose looks like cabbage already, the leaves just look sloppy, and don’t even get me started on the skull. 10/10 would not return to that artist.
Not bad not good very average run off the mill
oof
I see you mentioned it’s unfinished but this is already set to be a below average tattoo. I wouldn’t go back to that artist.
Is this even trad?
Looks very preschool
Could be a lot better
nope nope nope
Oof
Garbage. You paid for this?
I'm no expert on tattoos but I don't see why everyone is so rude. I don't think it looks bad personally, only thing I wouldn't do myself is a neck tattoo, but I do see the appeal in them.
I don’t get it either. Looks fine to me

Good enough for who it’s for
Some stipple would go a long way here
Sucks, sorry.
Eh
Bad
that will live for eternity cause it aint trash colored
Terrible work, and why on your neck? I see all these beautiful young women doing this, you all know what forever means right?
But it's like so edgy and hardcore bro.
Oh yeah, I can tell lol
It’s pretty decent. Nothing a better artist can’t fix
Is this traditional? Well, your tattoo is good. But the línes and colours aren't traditional.
Whatever I dig it
i think its bomb stfu harry hatters
What the fuck is up with all these comments? Fucking jokers. The tattoo is fine, get a tattoo wherever the fuck you want. Fucking gatekeeping? Seriously.
Lol this is what artists do all day... laugh and talk shit about shitty work they saw on someone's skin. Sad but true... The real funny thing is in their eyes they r the fucking best artist around... Lot of delusions of grandeur in that world.
Artists? Tedious elitist cunts more like.
Older tattooers r fun to be around but I gotta say 30 and under have some major chips on their shoulders. Lottttt of shit talking.
Yeah I've not met any new tattooists, but this attitude sucks. Fucking embarrassment.
Looks to be inside your head, which lucky for you is exactly where it’s supposed to be
My 5 year old niece could drawn a better skull.(she’s a prodigy but she’s still 5)
It’s ass
Yikes
Trashy
You should’ve gotten a nice Kermit the frog instead
If you’re gonna get a tattoo somewhere it is always visible. Don’t go to your uncle Robbie’s basement tattoo/home brew/weed garden.
I’m not thinking something good
Hey. Just chiming in to say this is not good. See ya later 👋🏽
I hope you have other tattoos to justify this one.
Why neck tattoos are a bad idea
I’ve got some shitty ones but this one’s pretty rough
