Tattoo Tribals

Tribal tattoos enjoy the status they have today for the kind of symmetry and the flow of design they exhibit. The intricate lines and the abstractness is what capture many people's attention and interest. In earlier times, the tribal tattoos designs depicted the social status of the person sporting it, the tribe to which the person belonged, location of the tribe and spiritual protection. But now, it is the fancy that the person has towards a particular tribal tattoo, which makes him sport that specific design.


The sizes of tribal tattoo designs vary widely and generally they range from medium size to large. People tend to get the tribal tattoos inked on a large portion of their arm, chest or back. Though color tribal tattoos are doing rounds, earlier they used to be only in black because that was the traditional ink shade people had easy access to.
