The joys of parenting. No one can really explain that extreme feeling of happiness and being proud especially when you become a first time dad. You’re bound to do something that’s out of the ordinary because of sheer happiness.
But out of the ordinary is an understatement for what this dad from Texas did to his face to celebrate the birth of his son.
Christien Sechrist, a 20-year-old dad from Deer Park, celebrated the birth of his son Perseus Allen Mitchell by inking a giant black-and-white image of the boy’s face on his left cheek. Yahoo.com
Clearly and obviously, this guy is elated with the birth of his son. You can’t blame him for that. And that tattoo on his face is definitely a work of art. But it just makes you think, what was he thinking of? Inking his left cheek is no joke. It also must have hurt. But, really … a massive ink job on your face? Why?
According to reports, Sechrist’s son had “an apparent brush with death,” so Dad decided to honor his son in the only way he knew — a massive tattoo that spans his cheek, jawline, and earlobe. CafeMom.com

Here is the picture of the overly proud dad with his baby’s face tattooed on his face. Aaaawwesome tattoo, Dad! But why there?!? LOL
Reactions to what Sechrist did have been mixed with a lot of people expressing disbelief. Here’s what his friends on Facebook have to say to him.
I’ve already told you man, it’s a sick tattoo, and I see why you got it but I think the face was just a tad over the top lol
Why on your f***ing face?! How are you ever going to get a real f***ing job to support your son with a tattoo on your face?
Did you really?
Crazy man but nice portrait
I give it 3 years before the regret starts Rollin in
Looks good. Can’t believe its on your face though haha
Sechrist is not at all affected by the mixed reactions. As a proud and happy dad, the only thing that matters to him is that his newborn son seems to like the tattoo. His response:
Well, my son looked at it [and] smiled so that’s all I care about.’
Well-said, Mr. Sechrist! But what happens when you have another kid? Will you be inking your right cheek a face as well? As a parent, you gotta show equal love.
What was the first thought that came to your mind when you saw the photo of Mr. Sechrist’s tattooed face?
