Tristan Weigelt, a 26-year-old tattoo apprentice, stunned the internet when he revealed what he looked like before covering almost his entire body in ink.
Weigelt began the transformation at age 20, enduring intense pain—particularly in his face and head, which he compared to scratches with a metal brush. The process took six full-day sessions and cost approximately $50,000.
Despite the dramatic transformation, Weigelt says she still feels the same person inside, adding that her tattoos don’t have any deeper meaning. Her advice to others: “If you like it, go for it.”
