Family Tattoos

Family tattoos are the most personal tattoos of all: a mother cradling her baby, a father and child walking hand in hand, the tiny footprints of the first days or a family tree with strong roots. Symbols that tell a family's story without writing names stand the test of time better.

Designs: tap one to try it on

7 designs. Tap the one you like, upload your own photo and see for free how the tattoo will look on your body.

Animal figures like lion, bear and wolf families speak to the protective side of parenthood, while single-line drawings and birth flower bouquets offer a simpler, smaller language. For siblings and matching tattoos, take a look at couple tattoos too.

Things to know about Family Tattoos

Choose a design that can grow

A structure that can be added to when someone new joins the family (a branch on the tree, a flower in the bouquet, a bird on the branch) keeps the tattoo current for years.

A real footprint or handwriting

If you want to use your baby's real footprint or someone's handwriting, bring a clear scan to your artist; try the size in the try-on tool first.

Try it together

For mother-daughter or sibling tattoos, everyone should try the design on their own photo; the same design may need a different size on different wrists.

Undecided? Try it first, then get quotes

Try the design on your own photo; if you like it, post a free request and let studios in your city send you price quotes.
