Woman goes viral for tattooing her boyfriend’s name on her face

Ana Stankovsky wanted to send a message about thinking twice before getting tattoos and she did so in an extreme way. She first posted a video on TikTok of herself getting her boyfriend’s name, Kevin, tattooed on her face. It was viewed by over 32.9 million people and many shocked commenters were appalled.

After posting several more TikToks trying to convince the doubters that her tattoo is real, Stankovsky, who is covered in tattoos all over her body, finally admitted the truth: she tricked the internet. She was actually trying to make a point. In the follow-up video, she captioned the post, “I regret my tattoo.”

In the video, she wipes off the fake forehead tattoo and says she does regret her tattoo, but not that one because “this is actually not a real tattoo”. She just wanted to “send a message to young people” that they might someday regret their tattoos as well. That video has been viewed over 23 million times.
