A WOMAN was left mortified after her tattoo artist made a terrible spelling mistake in an inking of an inspirational saying.
TikTok user @jessicaawattss wanted the phrase “this too shall pass” tattoed onto her – but what she got instead left viewers in stitches.
The artist made a huge error when spelling out the saying, writing “toe” instead of “too”, leaving Jess with “this toe shall pass” inked on her.
But in a further blunder, the second part of the tattoo is also spelled incorrectly – saying “je taim” instead of “je t’aime” – French for “I love you”.
She says she spent $25 (£19) on the tattoo at a “random apartment”.
The clip showing off her awful ink has been viewed more than 360,000 times, with many users poking fun at the misspelled word.

“This is toe funny,” one witty viewer commented.
Another said: “That’s what happened when you get a $25 tattoo.”
A third wrote: “Ohhh I’ve laughed so hard at this. I had a very similar situation. Mine says ‘this shall too pass’.
Jess has assured her viewers she has since had the tattoos corrected.
The popular saying “this too shall pass” is a Persian adage reflecting on the temporary nature of life.
It was used in a speech by Abraham Lincoln before he became the sixteenth US President.
But Jess isn’t the only one to have suffered a tattoo fail, as a woman was left horrified after she got a “ridiculous” tattoo instead of the cute gnome she had asked for.
TikToker Hannah shared a picture of her failed inking which is not even close to the gnome she had chosen.
Another TikToker instantly regretted getting his girlfriend’s lips tattooed on his face after getting a phone call.
