Prison and biker tats are a very unique style of tattooing. The style is characterized by heavy ink, skulls, or religious emblems. Originating in prisons where colored ink was impossible to get. Back then these tattoos were only worn by prison inmates, ex-cons, and bikers. But like all styles they have been modernized for everyone. this classic grungy style holds a special place in my heart because of its edgy look and old school aesthetic is always a good addition to most peoples' canvas.
More classic versions will most times, if not always, feature the same source material (i.e skulls, praying hands, crosses, etc.). These are the most common motifs, however, there are many more!
The biker distinction brings a whole new element of hogs, hot rods, babes, and biker symbols and ideas.
This style is always evolving and changing improving as it adapts to every changing times. However a medium sized black and white skull tattoo to piss of authority is always a great choice!
