Trendy Trauma

You can call me picky, but when it comes to tattoos, one of the last words that I want to hear is “trendy”. The very concept of trendy - that is, cool today, completely lame tomorrow - is something that just shouldn't’t be applied to anything as permanent of a decision as is a tattoo.
With that being said people....be original! Dont get "ssshhh" on your finger just because Rihanna has it. Because as a matter of fact Rihanna got the idea from Lilly Allen! So I'm just saying!

It urks me when someone looks at one of my tattoos and says "eww i want you to tattoo that on me too" NO MAAM!!! GET YOUR OWN!

Unfortunately for me, trendy is absolutely a part of tattooing. Many people go to get tattoos based on FAMOUS references which they feel are stylish, hip, cool, you name it. That hasn’t changed for decades and I certainly don’t foresee it changing anytime soon. Even though I don’t like the idea, I still do find it interesting to learn exactly what is currently trendy when it comes to tattoos.
