    Minimalist and fine line tattoo

    Do you like the minimalist or fine line tattoo style? The artists at Circe Tattoo create works of art in this style. It’s one of the designs that is very popular nowadays.

    One of the characteristics of this type of design is simplicity. Capturing meaningful messages and ideas on the skin in just a few lines is one of the most favored styles.

    However, the themes you can choose from are varied, including tattoos of arrows, words, compass roses, among others.

    Minimalist and fine line tattoo

    Since the millennial generation discovered their elegance and discretion, minimalist and fine-line tattoos have become a social phenomenon that never ceases to amaze us with their original designs.

    Designed in order to capture ideas on the skin in a few lines full of meaning, the small size of this type of work allows them to be worn anywhere on the body without attracting too much attention.

    It is undoubtedly the women’s line that has recently reached the most astonishing heights of precision and delicacy, to the point of transforming some geometric motifs and patterns into real jewels.

    But the level of detail of any “fine line” is very high, being a challenge for professionals, so it is always advisable to put yourself in expert hands like those of Circe Tattoo, with a long experience in this discipline.

    Tattoos of precision and detail

    Fine line tattoos, also known as single needle tattoos, are distinguished by the excellent definition of the drawing, to the point that they look as if they were made with a ballpoint pen.

    In order to achieve a refined outline, this type of tattoo is done with needles called “round liners”, specifically designed to outline the contour of the design and create very sharp lines.

    This material, together with the tattoo artist’s expertise, allows for very detailed minimalist works, hence the two styles go hand in hand, as you can see in the list of ideas below.
