Tattoo of the Week: I'm Looking at You, Creep

Have you ever felt like someone was watching you, but there was no one in the room? We can't imagine how much more creepy it would be to have a detailed eye tatted on your arm that would pretty much glare at you whenever you moved your arm up and down. This week we are featuring Aviun Knives, a 20-year-old, artist and college student, who has an all seeing eye on his left forearm as one of his five tattoos. He says it has no literal meaning but got…

Tattoo of the Week: Ballers get tatted, too!

We always appreciate when guys submit their tattoo images for a feature of the week...for some reason we get an overwhelming amount of responses from women (not that we mind). This week's feature is Dev Devious, a 30-year-old self proclaimed "baller" from Jacksonville, Florida. In his submission, he even makes note that he has a 745 credit score (if you want his contact info, we might give it to you). From the looks of it, he…

She also has an ink of the word "dead" on her hand that she has practically scrapped off of her skin (read on for more on this procedure). Thanks for your story, Sick Boy, we love the ink.

Tattoo of the week: We digg the E-mail

For tattoo of the week, we normally post why we featured that tat for the week, but this week we liked Ariel's e-mail that came with the photos, that we decided just to post the e-mail here. Read for yourself why this ink was chosen, aside from the sick skull and microphone ink.

"Hello. My name is Ariel. I'm 18 years young… Continue

Tattoo of the week: Spread love the Rainbow Way

We love the fact that this week's tattoo of the week feature is keen on the rainbow, how we love colors over here, if you couldn't tell by the site. This week our feature is Ms. 21-year-old, Isake Smith, a Brooklyn native who is currently studying abroad in Granada. She has four tattoos with plans to get more after her experience studying over seas. Our fav is her quote in cursive that says, "No expectations, no regrets," with a nautical star and… Continue

She currently has eight tattoos with plans to get more in the future. She got her latest ink of the words "readymade" after seeing her ex-boyfriend with another girl. Yep, tattoos can actually fill the…
