Tattoos with Islamic themes most often feature Arabic calligraphy, geometric patterns, and symbols drawn from Middle Eastern art and architecture. The relationship between tattoos and Islam is complex since traditional Islamic teaching generally discourages permanent body modification, but interest in Arabic-script tattoos and Islamic geometric art continues to grow worldwide.

Watercolor tattoos use soft color gradients and flowing edges that mimic paint on paper. The technique avoids heavy outlines, letting colors blend naturally into the skin for a light, artistic appearance.

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.
