3 Tattoo Trends to Consider Before Booking Your Next Appointment This Autumn

The '90s are back in more ways than one, and that theme is going to start trickling into tattoos. "'90s pop culture and nostalgia is more than a trend," said Douglas. Paints added: "I see that even clients that don't have a lot of tattoos can connect to the culture-related tattoos because it reminds them [of] something [in] their childhood, and how it connects to this period of time."

Think: tattoo ideas inspired by your favourite TV shows or movies, beloved characters or symbols, song lyrics, basically anything that will flood you with fond memories and make you go, "Aw, remember when . . ." when you look at it.
