Many people connect it to endurance, resilience, and the ability to keep going through difficult seasons without losing your center. Visually, it's also a strong subject: the head shape, horns, and heavy silhouette make a buffalo design easy to recognize and hard to forget.

Minimalist tattoos use clean lines and open space to convey meaning with as few elements as possible. The restrained approach keeps the focus on shape and composition rather than detail.

The upper arm is a classic tattoo placement with enough space for medium to large designs. It's easy to cover with a short sleeve and serves as a natural starting point for a half or full sleeve.
