Fight the Fight, Find the Cure! 65+ Symbolic Breast Cancer Tattoos for Survivors and Loved Ones
Tattoos are deeply personal for the person who chooses to get inked as they can symbolize emotional struggles and triumphs. If you are or know someone who has been affected by breast cancer, then you understand why many breast cancer survivors commemorate their journey to beating cancer with a tattoo. And for those who have lost a loved one, a breast cancer tattoo honors that loved one's life—and that's an important anad symbolic gesture.
Many tattoo artists incorporate the official symbol for breast cancer, a pink ribbon, into their designs. While others choose the lavender ribbon—the universal symbol for people living with any cancer—some breast cancer survivors who have endured a mastectomy surgery may also cover their scars and chests with other symbolic inkwork.
Whether you're a breast cancer survivor yourself or getting a tattoo for someone you love, you have a lot of creative freedom—but a little inspiration never hurt anyone. Here are 65+ creative breast cancer tattoo ideas.
