70 Badass Band-Aid Tattoos

These tattoos are unreal.

If I’ve learned anything from working at Inked magazine, it’s that people will get tattoos of just about anything. Seriously, ANYTHING. That of course, includes Band-Aids. Band-Aids are something that pretty much everyone in the world uses, unless you have some kind of fast-healing mutant skin. They’re also an example of a brand whose name has become synonymous with the product at large— such as Kleenex, Jacuzzi, Jet Ski, ChapStick, Post-Its, Zamboni, Bubble Wrap, Tupperware, etc.

The Band-Aid was invented in 1920 by Johnson & Johnson. Initially, bandages were often homemade, however the Band-Aid was easily manufactured and sterilized. They took on an international market during World World II, as they were shipped around the globe. The first decorated Band-Aids were introduced in 1951 and today, the estimated worldwide sale of Band-Aids is over 100 billion. Hell, they’ve even made Supreme Band-Aids, believe it or not.

Band-Aids have even made their way into the tattoo world, however these aren’t coming off in the shower or with a quick tug. Take a look at 70 incredible Band-Aid tattoos from some of the best tattoo artists in the world, then let us know your favorite tattoo from this list in the comments section on social media.
