Small, Minimal and Geometric: Prinker Reveals Body Art Design Trends for 2022
Prinker, the company behind the world's first digital temporary tattoo device, shares trending tattoo designs by users who design, share and print their own temporary tattoos
IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Trying out the latest tattoo designs has never been easier or more risk-free with the help of Prinker, the inventor of the world's first digital temporary tattoo device. With the purchase of a single Prinker, users can print on temporary tattoos within seconds, choosing from more than 8,000 designs curated by Prinker, its users, as well as tattoo artists across 60 countries. Prinker is a member company of the Born2Global Centre.
Temporary Prinker tattoos can be chosen to match an outfit, season, mood, or even feeling. Prinker users can even design and print their own temporary tattoos, empowering their creative self-expression.
Heading into 2022, Prinker is excited to share the latest trends in body art designs as observed among the company's thousands of global customers and tattoo designers.
1. Micro tattoos are the way to go
They're small, simple, and discreet. Micro tattoos have endless possibilities, and they let users tap into their desire to be temporarily "inked" without having to announce their design to the wider world. Micro temporary tattoos can be printed behind ears, or on the ankles and feet, which makes them easy to conceal in a professional setting.
There has been a spike in the trend of getting micro tattoos in recent years and tattoo enthusiasts and artists predict that they will still be going strong in 2022. Prinker users especially show a preference for more whimsical micro temporary tattoos – two of Prinker's most popular micro designs include a minimal butterfly outline, and a cartoon-style unicorn, which has been printed by more than 6,500 Prinker customers. Both are cute and delicate without the conspicuousness of larger and more traditional tattoo designs.
Prinker makes it especially easy for creative souls to use micro temporary tattoos to celebrate festive occasions like Halloween or St Patrick's Day.
2. Keeping it simple with geometric, abstract minimalism
Given the popularity of micro temporary tattoos, it comes as no surprise that tattoo enthusiasts are also favoring simpler geometric and minimalist tattoos that reflect the more toned-down aesthetic of the moment. These kinds of tattoos are easy to recognize from their fine lines and abstract design, with meaning to be found in the subtext.
A line art temporary tattoo design featuring six dice displaying various numerical faces to express taking a risk or a simple wish for luck has been printed more than 12,000 times on the Prinker platform. Other Prinker users have been drawn to the geometric simplicity of traditional Henna tattoo designs found in South Asia or matching symbolic line art tattoos.
3. Better expressed through words
Behind every temporary tattoo, there's always a hidden meaning – but sometimes it's best expressed through words, letters, or quotes. This trend has come a long way from "Love Mom" tattoos to encompassing users getting entire inspirational quotes tattooed on their arms. With Prinker, the design for these temporary tattoos can be personalized down to the font, size, color, and even the language.
Some of Prinker's most popular tattoos include Chinese calligraphy, recalling traditional tattoo designs that can compress multiple meanings into a single word or phrase from literature, history, or even the designer's imagination. Another popular design among Prinker users is the single word "beautiful" printed in rainbow letters, expressing value found on the outside and within.
Here's a video of a Prinker user printing "I love you" in seven different languages.
4. Find your inner animal
Old is also gold – this timeless trend of animal tattoos is predicted to be still going strong in 2022. Animals are a popular choice among Prinker users for many reasons, from the literary or cultural symbolism of a particular species to expressing love for their own pets. The evergreen dragon tattoo remains the most popular temporary tattoo, having been printed almost 15,000 times by Prinker users around the world.
Why Prinker
When users buy Prinker, tattoos are never forever. Instead, they can be chosen to match any whim without the pain and commitment that comes with getting a permanent tattoo. Users simply need to select their design and then slide the Prinker device directly across their skin to instantly print on water-resistant temporary tattoos.
