TattooFinder announces that non-traditional tribal tattoos dominate the list of "Top Tattoo Designs for 2006." While there are very specific origins of traditional tribal designs from Native America, Africa and Polynesia (Borneo, Samoa, and the Maori tribe of New Zealand) for example, tribal has been adapted for mainstream, modern day cultures. Variations of these traditional forms of tribal tattoos, oftentimes abstract in form, first grew to mainstream popularity as tribal armband tattoos. Now they are everywhere. (Warning: Tattoos are not for everyone so speak to your doctor before getting them. In case the ink is a problem then try henna tattoos.)
Among the most popular tattoo designs for men are tribal dragons, tribal skulls and tribal eagles. Tribal butterflies, tribal flowers, and tribal hearts in general are very popular among women's tattoos category. Tribal suns, moons and stars, tribal koy fish and tribal crosses (along with religious themed tribal designs in general) are popular with both sexes.
Tribal Astrology designs continue to be popular, with Zodiac symbols such as tribal Leo, Scorpio and Pisces tattoos providing unique ways to adorn personal meaning on one's skin.
