Perhaps no tattoo on earth is as creepy and eerie as the evil eye design. Appearing as not just an eye, but as one that is extremely intimidating, these tattoos certainly receive double takes from most people who look at them, and just like most other designs, they can be customized, added to, and switched around to look unique.

Most often times, evil eye tattoos are beloved by those who get them. In addition to the benefit of having colorful ink stare right through their skin, these tattoos are also obtained very easily, and usually drawn out quickly by tattoo artists. Moreover, since the designs usually consist of just one open eye, they usually don’t require too many sessions, or take too long for the artist to complete. It’s hard to truly appreciate the beauty of these designs without seeing some of the best ones, which is why we have created the list below, consisting of 12 evil eye designs, bound to frighten those who view them.

Full of color and often found on the ankles of women, seahorse tattoos are extremely vibrant and (due to the overall rarity of them) can be rather fun to show off. Though seahorses might not be the first aquatic animal that comes to mind when looking to get inked, they happen to have a deeper meaning than most tattoos, and a longer history as well.

According to many tattooing websites, seahorse tattoos represent the creativity of both the human mind and long term memory. Dating back to the early 1900s and derived from the term “Hippocampus”, these tattoos have long been associated (specifically) with one’s subconscious mind, and the camouflaging techniques that can be used through means of mental creativity, relaxation and meditation.

So, whether you are interested in aquatic tattoos, looking to get one for yourself, or wanting to better understand the psychology, meaning, and symbolism behind them, the list below should certainly be enjoyable. While compiling this list, we made a conscious effort to choose the images and designs that would best showcase the overwhelming beauty and deeply rooted symbolism of seahorse tattoos, while also bringing to light some of the most gorgeously colored and uniquely created designs.

While some people aim for riches, others aim for respect, which is one of the reasons why loyalty over royalty tattoos are so incredibly popular. Sought out by many people, these tattoos hold a meaning so significant, that only those with the largest hearts and toughest backgrounds can understand them.

Loyalty is one of the most difficult things to maintain (especially with how the world runs), and with the incessant need for money, humans sometimes feel as if their only choice is to aim for riches. However, according to the images below, this is surely not the case. Of course having endless amounts of cash is something everyone wants, but to some of the boldest and most pridefully driven people, staying true to yourself exceeds anything money can buy.

Due to how much the camera is zoomed in, it’s hard to tell exactly where this simplistic design is placed, however, it still looks nice.
