    I liked this gallery but I didnt find anything to help w/my mermaid tattoo idea.

    While I agree with Luna that my ideas for the actual mermaid didn’t really take shape any clearer after having viewed this gallery, I got some really unique ideas for placement that I didn’t consider before. Thanks!

    By far the best selection of mermaid tattoos I have seen so far. It has helped with some ideas and I will recommend it to others. Many thanks.

    I am going to get a mermaid that looks like me with short blonde hair…although after visiting here i like the ‘tribal’ mermaids a lot…i may go that way instead…i think i’ll get her on my calf because i’d like to be able to see her.

    I love the mermaids with merchildren, especially the breastfeeding one. So beautiful. I’m having one of myself and my twins in “mer -form” done in June. Thank you for compiling these awesome photos!!

    As well as the others posting on this site, I too am obsessed with mermaids-my liscence plate/dashmat has mermaids on them, and I even talk with Thom Shouse (the Tailman) who makes all tails for hollywood for all mermaid movies and commercials out there (to make my own) and EVERYTHING! I am actually looking for a Tribal Knot Mermaid-and NO one seems to know how to do this…if you could add a picture of something similar, it would be GREAT! There is one picture on here that is close, but I want the whole body to be that of the fine on the black tribal-like tail of the guy’s tattoo above…

  27. 27 Sharon Dixon

  28. 28 Jenn

    My fave is still the tribal mermaid, I got her on my shoulder blade in 05… I didnt like the one with her covered up- Im glad i decided to leave her nude on me. Im getting her mirrored on my other shoulder blade but want another lovely mermaid down my back. Liked the selection, my fave was also the hindu-ish one, but definately not for my back- I just thought that was amazingly beautiful :)

    hey some really interesting ideas love it

  30. 30 Steve

    Awesome. Some tattoos are weird, but on the whole, awesome.

    Anybody ever see a mermaid tattoo placed over the elbow (on the part of the arm that gets tan), so that the tail articulates with the person’s arm?

    That’s what I’ve been thinking about getting, for a few years. Thing is, I’ve told it to everyone, and half the people I know say, “Steve, that is perfect for you,” but the other half says, “Girls get tattoos of mermaids. What are you a girl?”

    How ’bout some opinions from people who know what the hell they’re talking about? What do you think? We’re judged by how we look. Mermaid tat on a guy, would you think, Weird?
