James Colley, 18, decided on a copy of Mike Tyson's famous face tattoo - which also features in the film The Hangover Part II when a drunk character makes an ill-informed decision to get inked.
James, from Cardiff, wasn't as committed as Tyson (or Stuart from The Hangover) and opted for a henna tattoo which would easily wash off instead.
But he claims the ink from the henna burned into his skin, leaving him with a disfiguring scar down the side of his face.
The tat set him back €10, which equates to about £8.91.
James shared photos of his tattoo and the burn on Twitter, saying: "Got a €10 @ MikeTyson henna tattoo in Zante, it's only gone and scarred my face for the next 3-5 years! # happydays."

His tweet quickly racked up more than 14,000 retweets and 44,000 likes.
And kind-hearted people tried to make him feel better about the situation.
One replied: "It actually looks even cooler than the henna tatoo. Enjoy it. Since there's no other way..."
Others started sharing their own pictures of burns from henna - including the Nando's logo.
