It’s no secret that we at Books and Bao love Taiwan. It might be our favourite country. Taiwan is a hotbed of art that celebrates literature, film, and visual arts in all their glory and with real gumption and fervour. Taiwan loves art and we love Taiwan. Tattoo art, likewise, is big in Taiwan, as these Taiwan tattoo artists proudly demonstrate.

If you’re a hardcore fan of cute simple tattoos, you already know that the world is your oyster. From the classic rose to the ever-popular anchor, there are so many different designs out there that you can choose from. While some people have no qualms with having a full sleeve or leg piece, others prefer something more fine-drawn. And if you fall into that latter category? Well then, we’ve got just the thing for you!

Getting a tattoo is a permanent commitment, an inseparable part of your identity. So, before getting inked, ask yourself what kind of tattoo reflects your authentic self. Luckily, plenty of tattoo designs defy time and passing trends. If you are looking for something bold, why not try old-school tattoos? We’ve got a bunch of traditional American tattoo ideas to inspire you.

No other tattoo designs convey a message as clear as word tattoos. Yeah, you’re right; it’s because the message is literally written on your skin! No cryptic symbols or surreal images for people (and most importantly, yourself) to wonder what your ink means. And although you might think that these are very simple tattoos, just wait until you see the examples we’ve rounded up in our list. They’re often very far from simple and definitely inspiring!

Huh, tattoos. They’re like potato chips — you can’t just stop at one. And, as any ink addict knows, there’s always that one design that seems to evade us, like a mythical creature frolicking just beyond our grasp. Well, fellow ink enthusiasts, we’re here to help you hunt down through a stunning collection of red tattoo ideas.
