Crystal Tattoo Photo #6824

Different crystals have different associations: quartz for clarity and amplification, amethyst for intuition and calm, rose quartz for love, obsidian for protection. You don't need to believe in crystal healing to appreciate the aesthetic-the geometric facets and light-catching shapes make striking tattoo designs.

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

Ankle tattoos are subtle and easy to conceal with socks or footwear. The small canvas works best with compact designs, bands, or wrapping patterns that follow the joint's shape.
