2018 Tattoo Trends Predict Dainty Geometric Designs Will Be On Point

If you've been itching to get some new ink, then you're in luck. The artistic powers that be have finally decided which of the 2018 tattoo trends will needle its way to the top this year, and you're going to want to jump on this bandwagon. Small geometric tattoosare making their way to the forefront of mainstream tattoo culture once again. They're tiny, clean, and simple in the best way. So if you've been longing to get back under the needle, but you weren't sure what to get, just take a look at these dainty graphic designs and let yourself be inspired .

Popular tattoo designs have oscillated dramatically over the course of history, yet some trends have boomerang-ed their way back into mainstream culture. The world's oldest mummy, Ötzi, who died thousands of years ago, was found with 61 separate sets of parallel lines tattooed all over his body. TBH, his ink would be right on trend with the current tattoo fads.
Human beings have been adorning their bodies with ink for various physical, spiritual, and emotional purposes through the years, and though the purpose has largely remained the same, the designs have shifted from geometric patterns, to symbols, to full-on portraits, and much, much more. As they say, everything old is new again, and tattoo culture is once again taking a major swing toward the geometric.

According to a Refinery29 interview with celebrity tattoo artist, Dr. Woo, small geometric tattoos are pervasive in popular tattoo culture at the moment. "I have been doing a lot of smaller pieces this year," he stated, "It's been all about these little, thin, geometric things that people want." If the tattoo extraordinaire Dr. Woo has noticed that more and more clients are coming in to request these designs, then you can bet it will be the big thing for 2018.
