My body is temple, meaning i get to decorate it how i please! I do have a few in mind with meaning, though nothing super personal- one to remember a trip, a few to represent my name, but also, i kinda just want gargoyles on my shoulders cuz I think it’d look cool, and that’s what having a body is about to me

@DAPHNEDIDIT gargoyles on your shoulder would be so incredibly sick

I have 50+ tats and most of them dont have concrete meanings, but are pieces I got from artists I admire and respect! They remind me of specific moments in my life and are generally a reminder that my body is temporary. Even the tattoos that are specific to something that I feel less strongly about with age (I have a SZA “CTRL” tattoo) make me smile because our tastes and interests will always be shifting - which is beautiful!

Some do, some don't!

I have my "memorial arm" for friends, family, pets, etc, I have a couple other deeply personal tattoos, but I also have a lot that are just cute little guys! To me, tattoos are such a permanent investment that it really only matters what you think of them. If you only want to get meaningful tattoos, great! If you couldn't care less, great! As long as they're done well and look good, live your life babe!!

GETTING TATTOOS THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY

Not all tattoos need to have symbolic meaning. Sometimes it’s all about getting something permanently affixed to your body just because it appeals to you; you don’t have to overthink or justify a tattoo. I have seven tattoos and only ONE of them actually means something to me lol. Do it for the fun of it!
