Ear Tattoos
I'll be honest, I had no idea people got tattoos on or around their ears. I guess it makes sense though. People get tattoos all over their bodies.
Has anyone thought about getting any? Ear tattoos would mainly effect the skin aspect of the ear I assume; so my concern would be it may make the skin texture look different, or effect the coloring of the ear. Also depending on how it heals it may effect scarring. Y'know, the basics of any type of tattoos.
The first article I read about ear tattoos was an article called "
The Cool New Tattoo Trend You’re About to See Everywhere" by Madelyn Chung. Dated April 26th, 2017.

I then read an article called "
Exquisite Ear Tattoos" by Sophia Tan. Dated March 31st, 2023. Some of the tattoos she found was stunning. It's like a curated gallery she did. I highly recommend checking it out if you're interested in ear tattoos.

Then on my own I looked into more designs. I was curious about how they looked healed and everything, and I was also curious how they looked with piercings in them. A lot of people complain that the healing process with them is not the best; the ink blows out really easily and they end up looking like mushy messes after a while. Though it depends on many factors on why a tattoo might age badly.

I was also curious about how they might look with certain piercings. Thought this post looked pretty cool.
