Woman explains why she chose to tattoo her boyfriend’s name on her forehead
Woman Sparks Debate After Tattooing Boyfriend’s Name on Forehead
Ana Stanskovsky, a Polish-born TikToker with over 588,000 followers, shocked the internet by tattooing her boyfriend
Kevin’s name in large black script across her forehead. In a video titled “my new face tattoo,” Ana is seen
wincing through the inking process and later beaming at the result, declaring, “Kevin’s gonna love it.”
The video quickly went viral, gaining over 18 million views and triggering a wave of mixed reactions. Critics
called the tattoo “stupid” and warned she would regret it, especially if the relationship ends. Some joked,
“Your next boyfriend will hate it,” while others urged Kevin to “run.”
Despite the backlash, Ana defended her decision in a follow-up post, saying, “This is how I express my feelings.”
She called it a beautiful gesture of love, insisting, “If you really love someone, you have to show it.”
When asked what she’d do if they broke up, she replied, “I’ll just find a different Kevin.”
While many question her judgment, Ana remains proud of the tattoo and her relationship. Kevin has yet to comment publicly.
The incident has sparked debate online about love, permanence, and whether such bold expressions are romantic or reckless.
5 Tattoo Stories That Will Either Prepare You Or Make You Cancel Your Appointment
1. “I have a number of tattoos, and the only ones I remember really hurting were my ribcage and the back of my neck (but that was mostly the position/chair the artist made me sit in).”
“The rest have had minimal pain and were almost calming. You get to just lay/sit there for a while where you literally can’t do anything but sit still. It’s almost restful to me. It’s a time to slow down and take a breath while adding art to your body.”
2. “I literally got my very first tattoo yesterday and am sitting on my couch with it wrapped in plastic wrap. I am 55 years old and have been deathly afraid of needles all my life…”
“Even fainting once in the hospital at the sight of the needle the doctor was going to shove into my wife. So I never, ever had the desire to have an ink-tipped needle poked into my body over and over again. However my wife had different ideas. However, 24 years ago I accomplished a life goal, and my wife said I should get a tattoo in honor of the accomplishment. I laughed and said, ‘I will get that tattoo when you do what I just did.’ Knowing there was very little chance of her spending the minimum 12 years it would take to do what I had just done. Well, last year she did the same thing I did, and so after a year of searching for the right artist, she got her tattoo done last month. So I had to keep my promise those many years ago, and I got mine yesterday.”
3. “The healing process was easy peasy. The tattoo came out great.”
“I was in my 20s. I met this tattoo artist, and he tattoos ‘life cycle of a butterfly’ on my left forearm.
This was my first time getting tattooed so I thought it would be more painful than it was. My tattoo artist (Anthony) was also surprised and was almost able to fully complete my tattoo including the color, all that was left was the butterfly.
I had been there for several hours by this point, so we both said, that this was a good stopping point. I paid him plus tip.”
4. “I love getting tattoos; I’m getting one next week.”
“I’m hoping that since it’s on my leg, it won’t hurt too much, the last leg tattoo that I got was fine, it didn’t exactly hurt, it’s sort of like digging a nail into the skin, like a hot cat scratch, but with added noise. It’s the noise of the tattoo gun that bothers a lot of people, but recently my tattooist started using a swanky new gun, and it was almost silent, so I said, ‘No, this is weird, make the noise!’ Also, different parts of the body hurt more, my last arm tattoo was a wench, really stung, so I was sat there going, ‘I PAID for this, keep going!'”
5. “The face didn’t hurt at all, the arm slightly, knuckles stung most but weren’t too bad.”
“I got my first (professionally done) tattoo when I was 20, right after getting a few months of COVID unemployment backpay, during a manic episode. I walked in and asked for an upside down cross on my face, ACAB on my knuckles, and a character on my forearm.
I went to one tattoo removal appointment, but it’ll cost over one thousand dollars (knuckles are hardest to remove) so I have to wait for now.”
