It may have been a show for covering up bad tattoos, but the Tattoo Fixers once made an ink mistake of their own.
We all make bad decisions and unfortunately some are more permanent than others. That's where Tattoo Fixers came in.
The E4 show, which aired from 2015 until 2020, was known for turning the rudest, crudest and downright awful inkings into masterpieces.
But, while the format of Tattoo Fixers sounds pretty straight forward, one iconic episode sees tattoo artists Jay, Sketch and Alice make their own embarrassing slip up.
When the episode first aired in 2016, viewers were quick to point out an awkward mistake on a woman's coverup.

Appearing on a holiday edition of the show, Kat explained that she was on a 'YOGDO' (You Only Get Divorced Once) holiday, so decided to take the plunge and get inked.
Artist Alice Perrin came up with a beautiful design to cover Kat's dodgy tat, featuring feminine flowers, a pocket watch and a teacup.
But there was a slight issue.
On the clock face, she made a little bit of an error.

It seems that there are two elevens and no nine on the clock numbers.
"Anyone else noticed there are 2 elevens? One should be a nine," one viewer said.
As another added: Going to have to do another cover up on this one… Two 11s and no nine?"
To make the situation even worse, the minute hand appears to be pointing at Alice's mistake.

As tragic as it is to be victim to a tattoo mistake, this will not be the first or the last time it has happened.
Last year, a woman went viral after she had the best reaction a major spelling mistake in her new tattoo.
She seemed to find it absolutely hilarious when hers got completely f**ked up.
Jordan LaMattina’s popular TikTok received millions of views after her tattoo of ‘EVERYTHING’S FINE’ went wrong.
Kind of ironically, she instead ended up with ‘EVERTHIN’S FINE’.

Luckily, she laughed it off as her friend behind the camera assured the tattoo artist: “This is not your fault.
“This is the greatest moment of my life.”
Reacting to the blunder, the tattoo artist looked like he wanted the ground to swallow him up, muttering to himself: “Are you f**king joking?”
But, Jordan once again had a perfect response, giggling: “It’s okay, everthin’s fine.”
