What you don’t want, however, is to get a tattoo that is out-of-style, or implies something about you that isn’t true if someone were to casually see your ink.
So you’ve heard of the TRAMP STAMP, that glorious Spring Break ritual of getting one’s lower back colored up with a butterfly or other symbol.
But have you heard of the SKANK FLANK?
The Skank Flank is a tattoo on a girl’s side, along her ribcage. And according to tattoo artists, it has rapidly become the more popular place to get inked, primarily because it is a bit more hidden than the Tramp Stamp can be, especially in the workplace. Because let’s face it, the chances of bending over to pick up that ream of paper for the photocopier is more likely to reveal a Tramp Stamp, however subtley, than a tattoo that is just below your bra along the side of your body.
Other popular trends are moving towards more script and lettering tattoos.
How common are tattoos now versus our parents’ generation? 32% of Gen-X say that they’re tattooed, compared to 15% of older generations.
Does all this extra flamboyance bother kids today? Not so much, apparently. Women (and men) everywhere, of all shapes/colors/sizes/backgrounds are getting inked, wherever and however they’d like. And that’s okay.
