Best friends are forever, and so are tattoos. Therefore, it only makes sense that the two go hand-in-hand, no?
Plus, there’s no shortage of matching or coordinating tattoo ideas that you can get with your friends.
So, if you’re ready to upgrade from a basic friendship bracelet to something that’s a little more edgy and a lot more permanent, then keep reading.
When Guac Is Life
If you and your bestie never miss a brunch, and love your avo toast, then this tattoo might be for you.
Question: Do you think looking at this on your arm all the time would make you feel hungry?
No Matter Where, No Matter What
Show your dedication to your BFF with this tattoo that reads, “no matter where” on one arm and “no matter what” on the other.
RELATED STORIES
I also love how the feather design mimics the yinyang symbol.
Pinky Swear
One of the most important qualities of a BFF is always keeping their word.
That’s why I love these pinky swear tattoos that these friends decided to get.
To Infinity And Beyond
This is the tattoo you get when your friendship is out of this world! (Corny, I know, but I couldn’t help it!)
By the way, the watercolor effect on these tattoos is pretty impressive if you ask me.
Telephone Cans
You can let your bestie know that they can always call on you with this cute ink.
The string connecting the two tattoos is an ode to the days when we were kids making telephones with string and tin cans.
Oh, to be a kid again.
I’ll Be There For You!
Do you think Rachel and the crew would have gotten tattoos like this if the show was still on TV today?
Either way, I love this tattoo idea for a group of best friends to do.
Drop Your Coordinates
This tattoo idea is going to require some research and possibly geography skills, but it’s worth it.
These best friends tattooed each other’s coordinates on their arms and the final product looks pretty cool.
Ariel and Belle
This tattoo is perfect for those who are huge fans of Disney.
An added plus to this tattoo is that, even though it’s Disney, the design is subtle enough to pull off a kids movie in a classy way.
Cheers To Friendship!
I actually love these wine glass toe tattoos. I know toe tattoos aren’t everyone’s cup of tea (or glass of wine, if you will) but I think this is a hilarious design. You can put your toes together to make the glasses “clink.”
The Powerpuff Girls
What has sugar, spice, and everything nice (and a bit of spilled Chemical X)? This Powerpuff Girls tattoo design, of course! This design is perfect for a trio of fabulous BFFs.
Mark Your Evolution… And Friendship!
If you and your best friend happen to be into Pokémon, this is a tattoo design worthy of an elite trainer. Which Eevee evolution best describes your personality, huh?
These Beach Kitties
Aren’t these two tattoos just purr-fect? Okay, I’ll stop now. But, in all seriousness, I am loving these beachy cats. It’s a great way to get a similar design that still has unique elements to it.
These Botanical Tattoos
If you and your BFF happen to love all things houseplants, then consider this your ideal tattoo. You can pick the same design as your friend, or take it one step further and each get your birth flowers tattooed.
Prehistoric Pals
This is another design where the two tattoos are cohesive but have been modified slightly so they are still unique in their own way. I like how these dinos and their half-hearts remind me of a BFF necklace. Awww!
You Can’t Go Wrong With Pineapples
Right? I mean what’s not to like about pineapples? They are sweet, juicy, make a great home for a sponge, and they are also an awesome BFF tattoo design. I am loving the tropical vibes in this design.
Mirror Designs
This design is so simple but that’s what makes it so brilliant. I love how the designs almost reflect each other when they are placed side-by-side. These tattoos are also a great option for friends who prefer smaller, more discreet designs.
Add A Little Disney Magic
BFFs and Disney just go hand-in-hand. I mean, what’s more magical than friendship, right? Okay, okay. I know I went too far with that one but I am a total softie when it comes to my friends.
Friendship Is About Connection
This original design gets to the heart of what friendship is truly about: two people coming together to share their lives. Wow, I am blown away by this beautiful design.
