It is a common saying that any friendship that lasts longer than seven years is likely to last a lifetime. Seven-year-itch or no, we’ve all got those friends who always have our back — from midnight gossip sessions and SOS bail-me-out-of-a-date calls, to sounding boards for life choices.
One of the many ways to celebrate your special bond is getting inked with your bestie.
When it comes to tatts, there are so many choices so before the excitement turns to confusion, here’s a handy list of ideas for minimalistic tattoos to get with your BFF.
Matchy-Matchy tattoos
If you’re like two peas in a pod, what better than getting the same thing inked on yourselves? Get this cute pinky-promise line tattoo to cement the love you both have for each other! Simple and totes adorbs.
Continuous tattoos
Another cool way to get matching tattoos with your bestie is to pick a design that flows from one to the other. They look like one continuous design but are gorgeous by themselves too. Like this ‘red strings of fate’ tattoo.
Opposite-complementary tattoos
If you and your BFF have one of those unlikely friendships because you’re both so different from each other, go for a design based on opposites. While keeping the theme same, you can experiment with elements that are complementary such as the sun and the moon, or different kinds of flowers. They are unique designs on their own, and though different, make perfect sense together — just like your friendship.
Finger tattoos
If you’re someone who doesn't like large tattoos, getting inked on your finger is perfect. The design is small and compact making sure you conceal it but all while knowing your besties are there with you, And they’re cute to boot!
Half of a whole tattoos
The half-of-a-whole tattoos are unique because it symbolises how your bestie and you are incomplete without each other. Get the elegant ying-yang tattoo, the adorable fraction, or something more experimental — half a cookie each, puzzle pieces maybe? Minimalistic, meaningful and fun!
Fandom tattoos
Do you and your bestie binge the same shows or movies together? Well, then make haste and get matching fandom tattoos. From Harry Potter to Pixar films, Game of Thrones to Marvel, the world is your oyster.
