Guy Spends $70,000 On Tattoos And His ‘Unrecognizable’ Before Ink Photos Go Viral
A man has become a sensation on social media by revealing his tattoo transformation, leaving fans in awe of the remarkable change.
While tattoos have become a common sight in today’s world, some individuals take their love for ink to the extreme, adorning their bodies extensively.
What particularly intrigues people are the dramatic transformations that some tattoo enthusiasts undergo.
One such person, known as ‘Black Alien,’ recently gained viral attention by sharing his past life as a ‘very sexy guy,’ while ‘Britain’s most tattooed woman’ also revealed her appearance with her tattoos concealed.
Now, Quest Gulliford, a man who has reportedly invested significantly in his transformation, has unveiled his journey.
Gulliford, a cancer survivor who triumphed over Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in seventh grade, an aggressive form of cancer, has incorporated tattoos that symbolize his battle into his body art.
Among his many tattoos, one features a purple cancer ribbon, while another depicts a cross on his left chest with the words ‘God First’ alongside it.
After overcoming cancer, Gulliford described feeling ‘superhuman,’ a sentiment he chose to express through extensive ink work, including tattoos on his eyeballs.
In the previous year, Gulliford made an Instagram announcement to his 230,000 followers, unveiling a significant change in his appearance. He disclosed that he had opted to have the whites of his eyes permanently inked black.
He described the decision-making process, stating, “It took me six years to think if I actually wanted to get it or not. I loved it, and then it took six more years because it was very expensive.”
For those curious about the cost, this transformation came with a hefty price tag of $5,000 per eye. During the procedure, Gulliford had to keep his eyes open as the artist injected four shots of pigment into each eye.
Reflecting on the process, Gulliford recounted, “After he would do each shot, he would barely touch it to rub it around. Now, it’s permanent.”
While it might appear that he has reached the limits of his transformation, Gulliford remains committed to future inkings, despite some telling him there’s no more space.
“I promise you, there is,” he confidently asserted.
To showcase his journey, Gulliford left his followers astonished by sharing images from before his tattoo journey had truly begun.
Many people expressed their admiration and support in the comments, lauding his remarkable transformation.
“It’s great to see your transformation right before us,” one fan wrote. “Thanks for sharing.”
Another added, “You are one awesome guy to get your body suit.”
“So amazing,” a third person shared.
“Dope as f***. Inspiring dude,” commented someone else.
A fifth individual gushed, “Great work of art. I love watching your beautiful transformation. You are beautiful inside and out.”
