I’m not going to lie; for the past couple of months, I’ve been itching for a new tattoo. It’s true what they say: once you get one, it’s hard to strop the collection from growing. Unlike Demi Lovato and their plethora of ink that sprawls across their entire body (from what the eye can see), mine are kept somewhat to a modest, minimal effect.
When you dabble with the idea of getting a fresh tat, what comes first: the placement or the print? That’s a question I’m dying to ask Lovato after scrolling through a series of Instagram stories posted to their account on Saturday, January 8. A collection of time-stamped pictures of their freshly shaved head reveal the singer getting inked on side of their head at 2:35 pm by the famous single-needling, Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Dr. Woo.
Within a few moments of the initial “I’m getting a tattoo on my head” post, my anxiety on what they got tattooed on their head was thankfully put to rest as Lovato revealed what Dr. Woo had inked on their skull — a hyperrealistic spider placed just above their left ear with its front two legs appearing as if they are crawling towards the front of Lovato’s face.
