Fond of getting inked? Here’s how much full-sleeve tattoos cost, and where you can get them
Getting inked serves many purposes: self-expression, commemorating memories, or even stress relief. However, for some, the experience can be so compelling that one tattoo quickly leads to another (and another).
This is evident in the tattoo collection of celebrities like David Beckham, Adam Levine, Travis Barker, Ed Sheeran, and Machine Gun Kelly (MGK). In his song Don't Let Me Go, MGK alluded to how his blackout tattoos became a way to cope.
A sleeve tattoo is a large tattoo or a collection of smaller ink that covers most of an arm or a leg. It comes in different types depending on the amount of skin it'll take up—you can get a quarter sleeve, a half-sleeve, or a full sleeve covering from the shoulder to your wrist.
