Tattoo Trends You'll Be Asking For Throughout 2021

When it comes to placement for tattoos, this year's trending spots are on fingers, the rib cage, and the neck.

A word in a pretty cursive script, for example, is commonly found going across ribs. Dainty symbols can regularly be found behind the ear. For example, when Pretty Little Liars ended, the stars all got little initial tattoos on their index fingers ... the fingers they used for this teen drama's iconic "shhh." Many couples also get their initials on their ring fingers in place of or in addition to a wedding ring and band.

Of course, just as a tat's artwork can always be distinct and different for each person, where it ends up going is also a personal choice. And there is no wrong option, if it truly makes a statement and brings happiness. Just think carefully before getting ink, and be sure to keep this year's trends in mind.
