Some traditions draw on Mayan motifs that carry cultural weight, while others are purely decorative. Before choosing a dot tattoo, decide whether your goal is texture or a symbol that "means something.

With thick black outlines and flat, saturated colors, traditional tattoos are built to last. The straightforward approach prioritizes readability and impact, making these designs recognizable from a distance.

The wrist offers a compact area that suits fine-line work, small symbols, and script. Its visibility means the tattoo becomes part of daily life, always in the wearer's line of sight.
