Is There a Competition in Hollywood For the World's Tiniest Tattoo We Don't Know About?
It's pretty clear that our obsession with tiny tattoos isn't wavering anytime soon, and judging by the Instagram accounts of celebrity-favorite tattooists Dr. Woo, JonBoy, WinterStone, and more, neither is the appeal in Hollywood. Aside from a few outliers — like Miley Cyrus, Cardi B, Ariana Grande, and Brooklyn Beckham, to give you a handful of examples — celebrities have been testing the limits on just how tiny they can make their ink, and the results are as impressive as they are beautiful.
Miniature tattoos have become such a thing artists have started to put pennies and other small objects next to their creations to show off the small-scale designs because, without the comparison, it's hard to imagine it. Be it a simple initial or a detailed portrait of a pet, nothing seems to be off-limits. From Vanessa Hudgens's intricate sunflower on her side that's no bigger than an inch or two long, to the white dot on Kendall Jenner's finger that could easily be mistaken for a fleck of paint, it's hard to pick the most awe-inspiring tiny tat.
