At the Junction Between Instagram Minimalism and Tried and True Traditional
Over the past several years, the tattoo industry has been saturated with new trends catered toward the millennial generation. From delicate minimalism to bold and bright kawaii new school—collectors between the ages of 20 to 30 are literally redefining ink culture before our very eyes. And if you were to stumble into a local coffee shop or trendy vintage boutique, you might see a variation of this new style covering the skin of young, eccentric collectors around the globe. We like to call this kind of style a hybrid, as it pulls elements and inspiration from several popular tattoo genres. However, it’s about time that this brand of ink slinging got it’s own moment in the limelight.
