We’ve all noticed tattoos becoming more prevalent. In recent decades they have gone from taboo body ink to accepted person decoration.

Despite this, there remains some misconceptions and negative stereotypes around about women with tattoos, and particularly mums with tattoos. We thought we’d put that negativity to bed straight away by showing you just how beautiful these tattooed mumma bears are.

We can’t figure out where tattooed mummas got their bad rep.

They’re just as gorgeous when they’re pregnant.

Maybe even more gorgeous.

Plus, it’s obvious they love their kids.

Other times they’re happy to let the world know they love it just as much as the lady herself.

In some ways the kids of tattooed mums have it better. They’ll know that ink can give people a voice.

That it can tell a story about where someone has been, and where they’re going.

And that all those little parts come together to make one hell of a whole.

So here’s to all the tattooed mumma bears beating down the stereotypes.

We love every branded and beautiful inch.

Are you one of them?
