ARMBAND TATTOOS

Armband tattoos make a powerful statement, the armband as a tattoo design traditionally goes on the upper arm, at the widest part of the bicep. The armband tattoo encircling the wrists are often called "cuffs." Bands can also be inked around the forearm and around the thigh or calf. Styles like tribal and Celtic translate well to armband design, flowers, vines, hearts and the use of lettering is also a popular design element within armband tattoos.
