Planning to get inked? Take cues from Riddhima Kapoor

Minimal or elaborate — what’s your tattoo type?

Getting inked can feel like a life decision that no one wants to mess up. It becomes a part of your existence. If you are planning to get a tattoo but can’t decide on a design, here’s a cue from Riddhima Kapoor Sahni. Sister to Ranbir Kapoor, Riddhima recently got inked on her mother Neetu Kapoor’s birthday. The fashion and jewellery designer chose to get the word ‘Kuks’ inked on her forearm. She explained that it was her nickname given by her mom. If you want to get a meaningful tattoo done, here are three ideas: 

• Personal experiences and values: Go for a design that resonates with your beliefs, passions or any significant life events. The tattoo will be a meaningful reminder of your journey and personal growth

• Symbolism and metaphors: Select designs that have a deep meaning and symbolism, such as the Ouroboros, mandalas or Celtic knots. These tattoos can be conversation starters and reflect your personality

• Culture and history: You get words inked in your language. Many people like using ancient texts and symbolisms. These can be inked in minimalist designs too
