The same symbol can look subtle on one area (like an ankle) and dramatic on another (like a forearm). A good placement choice makes the tattoo readable, fits your lifestyle, and supports the story you want the tattoo to tell.

Combining the strong linework of traditional tattooing with contemporary shading and color theory, neo-traditional pieces feel both familiar and fresh. The style allows for more realistic proportions while keeping the iconic bold look.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
