Small tattoos have become all the rage in the tattoo industry, from dainty line art to intricate motifs. Smaller-sized tattoos are not only more economical, but they also act as stylish and ethical accessories adorning your body. Mini tattoos are great in more than one way. It is perfect for people who have never gotten a tattoo before or if they are looking for something non-committal. Here is an amalgamation of unique yet simple and bold designs for men who just can’t find anything unique, from artistic to personal, meaningful to just impulsive good fun:

Symbolising the fluidity of time, a melting watch tattoo inspired by ‘The Persistence of Memory’ by Salvador Dali makes for an expressive, meaningful tattoo.
