I'm an INTP and I have full sleeves, my GF is INTJ and is covered more than I am. Some of my friends that are covered in tattoos are ISFP, INFP, ESTJ, ISTJ... lots of different personality types...

Me (INTP) for reference....


Most of mine are fairly autobiographical although I have a few that mean absolutely nothing and were done by friends and just are what they are 'art pieces' I guess.

Some of it has to do with what kind of subculture you are interested in, I'm into motorcycles and used to be into punk/hardcore when I was younger. Just being around tattoos all the time makes them more normalized in your mind. I dont really think about them that much aside from when someone else brings them up. Once you get a certain amount it really stops mattering. You have lots of skin.

Just go to someone who is an artist and study up on what makes a good tattoo, linework, composition, color, etc, before you go get something. Also dont consider price into it. Bargain basement shopping for tattoos is the worst decision you can possibly make.

I think that you cant type people by tattoos.
