50 Photos of the Helix Tattoo Trend That Will Make You Want to Get Inked

There’s a new tattoo trend that’s taking over the Internet and even those set on not getting inked might just start thinking twice. It’s called the helix tattoo and it’s pretty awesome. The helix is the thin and curved outer part of the ear, which is now a famous spot for tattoos apparently. The new tattoo trend is all over Instagram and it looks like more and more people will be getting into it in the next few months.

Helix tattoos have a beautiful simplicity about them. Since the space to get inked is quite small, the tiny designs have to be perfect. Among the most famous designs are florals, animal prints, and minimalist details. Some of them look dainty, while some are pretty kickass. Helix tattoos are very subtle, so they are ideal for first-timers who don’t want very noticeable and obvious tattoos.

With cool helix tattoos, who needs fancy earrings or ear cuffs? Below are a few Instagrammable helix tattoo photos that might just convince you to finally get inked. We seriously can’t get enough of them, so enjoy!
