Let’s Get Inked:
The Eyeballs
Body modification has gotten its hands on a squeamish tattoo trend which involves getting the eyeballs inked. It involves injecting the whites of your eyes with ink to make them look like colored orbs. The process of getting a colored eye tattoo involves injecting your eyes with ink and turning them into colorful orbs. Though the tattoo doesn’t seem to be for the faint-hearted, fanatics are trying out everything, starting from purple and red to orange and green.
The Teeth
Getting a dental stain tattoo – which has been dubbed ‘tattooth’ – is growing in popularity, especially in the United States where a tattoo on your pearly whites can cost between $75 and $200 (£59-157). Having a dental tattoo is said to be no more painful that having a crown fitted. Normally this artwork is created on the back teeth, the molars or bicuspids. Most people prefer having it on the cheek side of the tooth, some on the tongue side. They are seen only when the person that has one wants to share what they have, by pulling their cheek out so it could be seen.
The Columella
A bold new trend sees body art enthusiasts get elaborate designs on the space between their nostrils, known as the columella. But these inkings are not for the faint-hearted. NotNot only are they on a body part that is near-impossible to hide – slap bang in the middle of your face – but getting the tatt done is incredibly painful. The non-electric technique is done freestyle with a needle and ink. The look is more organic and is believed to hurt less as it isn’t as invasive.
The Tongue
Body art is slowly taking over all the areas on human body. Tattoos, which are a hot commodity these days are now seen in almost all areas, even on the weird places you’d never thought of just like tongue tattoo. As far as the procedure goes, it’s quite similar to getting inked at any other part of your body. You’re anyway going to be punctured with the needle so as to dispose the ink into the epidermis of your skin. Just like the skin, tongue will also quickly absorb the ink, thereby leaving behind a permanent design on your tongue.
The Gums
An amalgam tattoo might sound like a new trend in body art, but this bluish-gray stain on the gums isn’t decorative or intentional. Although amalgam tattoos might look concerning, they are generally harmless. Your dentist can confirm if a patch of discoloration on your gums might be something more serious.
The Innerlip
Inner lip tattoos have been a huge trend in tattoos since Miley Cyrus debuted her tiger emoji in 2014. To this day people are choosing to get spur of the moment, quirky tattoos inked on their inner lip. If you want to get a tattoo, but aren’t sure about making the commitment to having one forever, then an inner lip tattoo might be perfect for you! They don’t last nearly as long as other tattoos simply because of where they’re inked. Your mouth is full of friction and saliva, which makes the ink fade when it wouldn’t normally on another area of your body.
The Underarms
To march towards the newest stage of enigmatic body art, men around the globe are touting the unconventional advantages of armpit tattoos. These innovative emblems are making significant ripples in the realm of contemporary style. It seems that intricate floral designs are particularly popular when it comes to underarm ink, but some have chosen other scenes from nature, like spiderwebs, birds, and even strawberries. And, hey, if you’re looking for subtlety, hiding a tat right under your arm might be the perfect spot.
The Heel
So it seems to me as time goes on girls have moved from typically getting tattoos on their calves to ankles to feet and now it seems like quite a few want them on their heels now(or should I say side of the heel). It seems like the skin is really tough there so I suggest against it for fear it will need touch ups badly and will have some drop outs.
The Fingernail
Fingernail tattoos are a thing and according to Instagram, they’re pretty freaking cool. Unlike literally every other type of tattoo, they’re totally pain-free. Instead of tattooing skin, when artists create nail tats they apply ink onto the hard surface of your fingernail. For a fingernail tat, the artist tattoos on top of your nail just like how they’d tattoo your skin.
Nowadays, it’s almost impossible to imagine a body part that hasn’t been tattooed, tattoos are a dialogue starter. Either there’s a story attached or a skin-showing session or a psychological response derived from the sight of ink art. Getting a tattoo is a distinctive experience for each person, and one that can have all types of layers and meaning. Different people chose different areas for themselves where they want to get inked. They may be common body parts or weird ones. Tattoos have different meanings for different people.
