Important Announcement: If you ever have the insatiable desire to lose all your friends and get a henna tattoo, stay as far away from ‘black henna’ as you can. Unlike the natural, plant-based brown henna commonly used, black henna is just black hair dye containing a synthetic called paraphenylenediamine, which was outlawed by the European Union for causing severe skin burns.

Just ask Twitter user James Colley. While vacationing in Zante, Greece, Colley paid a little over $10 bucks to get a replica of Mike Tyson’s infamous tribal face tattoo with black henna.

Not a bad job by the tattoo artist.

Oh.

Wait.

Colley posted the side-by-side to Twitter and didn’t sound as depressed as he should be.

“Got a €10 @MikeTyson henna tattoo in Zante, it’s only gone and scarred my face for the next 3-5 years!”

Don’t worry bud, you’re not the only one whose henna tattoo ruined his life.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
