Choosing a tattoo is a serious decision. However, should you ever regret your tattoo and want it removed or altered, you're in luck and you'll be in the company of many celebrities. Let's take a look at some celebrities who regretted their tattoos and did something about it.
Nick Lachey


Back in the boy band era of the late 1990s, 98 Degrees was quite popular. Apparently, Nick was so proud of his band that he got its name tattooed on his arm surrounded by a sun. How clever. Eventually, Nick realized his tattoo was lame and the band wasn't cool anymore, so he had that cutesy tattoo colored in. A solid sun isn't less stupid than an outline of a sun, but whatever.
Angelina Jolie


Haven't people learned by now not to get a tattoo of your significant other's name? After Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob split, Angelina had her "Billy Bob" tattoo removed. Now, in its place are the coordinates of the birthplaces of her children. I think the coordinates thing is kind of cool and at least once someone is your kid they are always your kid, unlike a husband or wife.
Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee had each other's names tattooed on their ring fingers when they got married. After one of the times the couple split, Pamela had her "Tommy" tattoo altered into "Mommy". This isn't too awful of an alteration seeing how Tommy is the father of her boys. Now if only she could get rid of that hepatitis C, too.
Pharrell Williams

Pharrell Williams has lots of tattoos, but now he wants to clean up some of them. He's not going with the standard laser tattoo removal. Instead, he will have a new procedure where skin is grown from samples of his own skin and then sewn over the tattoos. It is similar to a skin graft, only skin isn't taken from anywhere, it is grown in a lab. This sounds pretty interesting, and hopefully he doesn't use that new skin as a blank canvas for new tattoos.
I imagine in about 10 years there will be plenty of women in their thirties who want their butterfly tramp stamps removed and guys who want their barbed wire tattoos removed. That's what you get for getting a trendy tattoo!
