Tattoo trends may come and go, but the mark they leave is there (almost) forever. As a tattoo artist, understanding each year’s most common trends can prepare you for success. By mastering the trends early on, you can avoid the mistakes beginner tattoo artists make. While a lot of these tattoos have more traditional roots behind them, they also have their own new twists that make them stand apart. These are the most popular tattoo trends artists should know.
Lightning
The lightning trend caught a lot of people by surprise, but it seems to be here to stay. These tattoos are often black and snake across various body parts for a unique, dramatic effect. Clients can even personalize them with initials or images built into them.
Modern Tribal
This is not the first time that tribal tattoos have had their claim to fame. This time, instead of seeing the intricate, thick black sleeves, we’re now starting to see more modern, delicate patterns. Though just as striking, they often incorporate design patterns, like butterflies or hearts, into them.
Lower Back Tattoos
Just like tribal tattoos, lower back tattoos are back. They may be floral, butterflies, or tribal, but there are some newer additions in the mix. From softer shading and finer lines to adding cute items to the tattoos, these will make their mark.
Holographic Tattoos
A new tattoo trend sweeping the world is holographic colors. These tattoos seek to master some of the hardest textures and color schemes. Holographic tattoos are no easy feat but can make some incredibly impressive statement pieces, so don’t be surprised to see more of these.
Color Hand Poked
Hand poked tattoos, or tattoos created without a tattoo machine, are becoming increasingly popular. These tattoos can bring various designs to life, and with bright colors, they can be incredibly impressive, both in the technique needed to complete them and in the images created.
Psychedelic
Psychedelic tattoos are among the most popular tattoo trends artists should know. These tattoos are bright, bold, and often filled with neon colors. Various psychedelic designs can make an impressive piece with just about any design scheme.
Metallic Micro
Metallic textures can be difficult to create just right, yet they are also popular. Expect to see an increase in the frequency of requests for metallic tattoos, especially micro tattoos. Mastering this technique will make life easier in the coming years as they are requested more and more. Plus, they look great and can be great additions to any portfolio.

The designated examiner hands over the temporary airman certificate. Relief washes over the new aviator. A checkride pass is a significant achievement, but it marks the beginning rather than the end. Without an instructor in the right seat, skills degrade. Complacency creeps in silently.
Nothing ruins a good weekend like a sudden toothache that won't quit. You start wondering if it’s just a small cavity or something major. It's often confusing trying to figure out the difference between a crown vs a filling and deciphering which one your tooth needs to stop the pain. Knowing the basics helps you feel more prepared before you even sit in that dental chair.
Owning a swimming pool offers endless summer fun, but maintenance can often feel like a full-time job. While many accessories promise to make life easier, few deliver as much tangible value as a simple cover. Understanding the reasons why you should invest in a pool cover is the first step toward a more enjoyable and less labor-intensive swimming experience.
As the glow of Christmas lights begins to fade and the New Year settles in, one last
celebration quietly continues in many homes and churches around the world:
Epiphany. Observed on January 6, Epiphany is also known as
Three Kings’ Day, Theophany, or Little Christmas. It marks the
moment when Jesus was revealed to the world traditionally through the visit of the Wise Men
bearing gifts.
Even though Christmas Day has passed, Epiphany keeps the spirit of the season alive a little
longer. It blends history, faith, folklore, and family tradition, and it’s a celebration that
continues to evolve in modern times.
