skull tattoo

Bone-head body art

A skull tattoo is a tattoo depicting a human skull, one of the most popular tattoo motifs worldwide.

The imagery ranges from realistic anatomical skulls to stylized sugar skulls associated with Día de los Muertos.

Skull tattoos carry varied meanings—mortality and the fleeting nature of life, rebellion, danger, or simply aesthetic appeal: He got a skull tattoo on his forearm after surviving cancer.
