Burak Mesci, who works as a tattoo artist in Sivas, made striking statements about his profession. Stating that he has witnessed the regrets experienced by his customers, Mesci explained why he does not get tattoos.
HE DOES TATTOOS FOR EVERYONE BUT DOESN'T HAVE A SINGLE ONE HIMSELF Burak Mesci, who works as a tattoo artist in Sivas, encounters people who want to get tattoos every day because of his profession. However, he himself has never gotten a tattoo to this day. Noting that he can get a free tattoo whenever he wants, Mesci said that he believes tattooing is a sin and that he is affected by his customers who experience regret. Mesci said, "Tattooing is a sin; I believe it is a sin. At the same time, I am someone who gets bored very quickly, and I don't pay a fee. If I wanted, I could get as many tattoos as I want. But I know that tattoos are addictive. After getting a tattoo, you want more. Then you have tattoos in many places on your body. I think this is a bad look. Generally, those who get them regret it, and as I see those who regret it, I don't want to get one either. My most important reason for not getting one is that tattooing is a sin."
THOSE WHO GET THEIR LOVER'S NAME TATTOOED RUSH TO HAVE IT REMOVED WHEN THEY BREAK UP Stating that tattoo removal requests have increased, Mesci explained that especially people who have their lovers' names and relationship dates tattooed on their bodies experience regret after a breakup. Saying that a customer who got a tattoo while married began having his tattoo removed after they separated, Mesci stated that they warn their customers in advance, but these recommendations are often not taken into account. Mesci said, "Tattoo removal procedures have increased. One of the biggest reasons for this is poorly done tattoos. Especially right now, the number of people who get their lovers' names and relationship dates tattooed has increased a lot. In any breakup or negative situation, they want to have it removed again. Young people get tattoos more; they get their lover's name tattooed and then experience regret. A few days ago, a customer of ours got a tattoo, saying he was married; afterward he separated and now he is having his tattoo removed. We warn those who want to get tattoos, and we advise them not to. We inform lovers and give advice that they may regret it or break up. For this reason, there are many people who get tattoos, as well as many who have their tattoos covered up and removed. Even if it is removed, there is a high possibility of a burn scar remaining. Therefore, the removal procedure must be done in a good place and performed by a professional team. Some people want to directly get a tattoo over it and have it covered, but that creates more cost."
