Watch This Woman React to Seeing Her Boyfriend Without His Tattoos for the First Time

Tattoos are certainly more widely accepted than they used to be. Today, men and women of all ages and backgrounds have them. This Australian man has taken tattooing to an extreme, having covered nearly his entire body in them, including his eyes. A makeup artist helped him cover them up so his partner could see her boyfriend without tattoos for the very first time. This was her reaction. (1)

Woman’s Reaction When She Sees Her Boyfriend Without His Tattoos For the First Time

When I say that Ethan from Dunburah, Australia is covered in tattoos, I mean he is covered. There is hardly a patch of skin on his body and face that doesn’t have one. He has even tattooed the whites of his eyes. 

“I just didn’t want to look like everyone else.” he says. (1)

Ethan began body modification when he was just 11 years old. He started by stretching his ears, also known as spacers. As he got older and gained more autonomy over what he could do to his body, he steadily covered his face and body in tattoos. He’s had the whites of his eyes tattooed black and even bifurcated his tongue.

“People look at it like me getting tattooed and modified has a deeper meaning than it really does,” he says. “At the end of the day, I do all this to my body because I think it looks cool, and that’s pretty much the bottom line.” (1)

Transformed

On the web series Transformed, Ethan sits down with a makeup artist for two hours. The goal is for him and his girlfriend Meg to see what he would look like if he didn’t have all of those tattoos. This would be the first time that Meg would ever see her boyfriend with his tattoos. (1)

How They Did It

The makeup artist first began by applying a bright pink base layer to any skin not covered by clothing. From there, she continuously added another shade to match his skin tone. After two hours and a lot of makeup, the transformation was complete. (1)

Ethan saw himself in the mirror first. Surprised by what he saw, he thought it was interesting but preferred his usual look. (1)

“I already feel kind of naked,” he said. (1)

Next it was time for the grand reveal with Meg. When she saw him, she, too, was shocked over his appearance. Thankfully, she shared Ethan’s opinion.

“He’s still good-looking, but I like him with his tattoos,” she stated.“I wouldn’t change it.” (1)

What do you think? Would you ever think of getting even close to that many tattoos?
