On the back of Zayn Malik's head and neck, he has a few tattoos. He has a rose at the base of his skull with the stem extending down into his neck. He also has his dad's name, Yaser, tattooed behind his right ear. He has a large wing tattooed right below that, and what looks to be the word "athames" on the back of his neck, which has roots in wicca. Zayn hasn't said anything much about any of these tattoos and what they mean, though he did get the large rose in 2018 immediately following one of his breakups with Gigi Hadid, so it was perhaps a way for him to cope.
