About Head Tattoos

Head tattoos range from discreet pieces behind the ear or along the hairline to bold scalp work that turns the head into a canvas — one of the most daring areas, chosen for a strong personal statement.

  • Behind-the-ear and hairline pieces are small, delicate and easily concealed by hair
  • Full scalp tattoos are a major undertaking, often designed to complement a shaved look
  • Serious pain — skin sits directly over bone with little padding
  • The scalp catches significant sun, so protection matters for longevity
  • Scalp work is specialized — choose an artist experienced specifically with this placement
