The most popular tattoo styles: from traditional to the latest trends
1.- Traditional Old School Tattoo
Originated in the United States in the first half of the 20th century, no matter how many years pass, this style is always in fashion.
It features thick lines, solid colors, and iconic designs such as anchors, swallows, daggers, roses…
It’s the perfect style to honor the roots of Western tattooing and give your skin a vintage touch.
2.- Neo-Traditional
Keeps the essence of traditional tattoos but adds shading and a wider color palette.
Portraits, floral motifs, and nature-inspired elements are common in this style.
3.- Realism
One of the most popular tattoo styles.
It is characterized by very precise lines and a high level of detail, like photographs.
It can be done in grayscale or full color. Common motifs include portraits, landscapes, and animals.
4.- Blackwork
If you like symmetrical designs and precision, blackwork is your style.
It is based on black ink and complex geometric patterns such as mandalas or abstract motifs.
5.- Watercolor
One of the newest and currently very trendy styles.
Inspired by watercolor painting, it uses blurred colors and soft transitions.
If you want something artistic, delicate, and dynamic, this is your style.
6.- UV Tattoos
Not very common, but this style is gradually gaining popularity.
Using ultraviolet inks visible only under blacklight, these tattoos create a surprise effect.
7.- Ignorant Style
We call it the style that imitates pencil sketches.
These tattoos feature loose strokes and a purposely unfinished look.
If you like spontaneity and experimentation, the ignorant or sketch style is for you.
8.- Fine Line
One of the most popular and in-demand styles today due to its beauty and subtle strokes.
Characterized by small designs, delicate phrases, botanical illustrations, etc.
If you want a discreet tattoo with meaning, fine line is the style for you, and at 222 Tattoo Madrid we are specialists.
