For all the music lovers, you can either get a musical note or an outline of your favourite musical instrument to tell the world “music is life”.
Small dots
Small dot tattoos on your fingers highlight a different aspect of your life, depending on the number of dots you get. But they look less like tattoos and more like beauty marks.
