Ethan ‘ModBoy’ Bramble, a 24-year-old Australian, had his entire body tattooed. He has had more than 200 tattoos and underwent operations to alter his appearance throughout the years.
Bramble’s first body modification, which involved stretching his ears, was really performed when he was just eleven years old. Subsequently, similar operations were performed, including the removal of his belly button and the splitting of his tongue.
Although getting a tattoo is a significant way to express oneself, Bramble knew he had overreached himself by that point, but it was too late. When he started to regret some of his choices, his body was already covered in ink.
He revealed during an appearance on LadBibleTV’s No Filter series, “I suppose you could say I regret some tattoos.” Not only regret, but I believe there is a distinction between wishing to be seen differently and regret.
Speaking candidly about his feelings when others gaze, Bramble said he can tell they are passing judgment, particularly when they see him with his kid.
“For some people, but not for everyone, the face is a big thing that can lead to so many – can lead to a lot of problems for yourself, which I probably wouldn’t want my daughter to have to deal with until she was a bit older,” he stated. “I wish I hadn’t gotten so worked up on my face.”
“I’ve been getting laser [surgery], or have been, for pretty much 12 months… We do it in portions, but I’ve probably gone over the complete thing six or seven times,” he explained.
Because of the anxiousness and other things I was experiencing, I started finishing it. It’s hard to pinpoint mental health issues, but I’d like to think that having a lot of tattoos on my face contributed to my anxiety.
“I’m content with my appearance, but I’m also content with the mindset that my facial tattoos will gradually disappear over the course of the next two years. All I’m doing is cleaning the canvas.
