<\/p>\nEveryone has moments in life they\u2019re not proud of, decisions they wish they could take back, or things they regret saying. But few have regrets as visible and extreme as those of Ethan \u2018ModBoy\u2019 Bramble, an Australian body modification enthusiast who has covered himself with over 200 tattoos.<\/p>\n
Body art has become a common form of self-expression in modern times, with unique and intricate tattoos growing in popularity. However, most people have a limit on how far they\u2019ll go when it comes to altering their appearance. For Ethan, that limit was far beyond what most would even consider.<\/p>\n
Reports suggest that Ethan was just 11 years old when he started his body modification journey. His first change was stretching his ears, and from there, he underwent a wide range of modifications, including splitting his tongue and removing his belly button. Despite the variety of procedures he\u2019s experienced, it\u2019s his tattoos that draw the most attention. Ethan\u2019s entire body, from head to toe, is covered in ink. In fact, he revealed that he\u2019s spent approximately $60,000 AUD (about $39,000 USD) to achieve his striking look.<\/p>\n
Now, Ethan has started to express regret about some of his decisions. In an interview with LadBibleTV\u2019s No Filter series, he opened up about the mixed feelings he has toward his tattoos.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cI guess you could say I regret some tattoos,\u201d Ethan admitted. \u201cBut it\u2019s not just regret; there\u2019s a difference between regret and wanting to be perceived differently.\u201d<\/p>\n
One of Ethan\u2019s main concerns is how others perceive him, particularly when it comes to everyday tasks like taking his daughter to school. He acknowledged that having tattoos, especially on his face, can lead to judgments and assumptions.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor some people, the face is a big thing that can lead to a lot of problems, which I probably wouldn\u2019t want my daughter to have to deal with until she\u2019s older,\u201d he explained. \u201cI wish I hadn\u2019t gone as far as I did with my face.\u201d<\/p>\n
In an effort to change his appearance, Ethan has been undergoing painful laser surgery to remove some of the tattoos he got when he was younger. The process has been long and difficult, but he remains committed to seeing it through.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been getting laser [surgery] for about 12 months now,\u201d he said. \u201cWe do it in sections, but I\u2019ve probably gone over the full thing six or seven times.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ethan shared that the decision to start removing his tattoos was driven by the anxiety they caused him. He believes that the mental strain he experienced was tied, in part, to having a face full of tattoos.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m happy with the way I look, but I\u2019m also happy knowing that over the next two years, my face tattoos will become less and less. I\u2019m clearing the canvas.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ethan\u2019s journey has led to a shift in how he views himself and the way he wants to be perceived by others. While he may still embrace body art, his current focus is on making changes that align with his evolving self-image.<\/p>\n
