The Best Harry Potter Tattoos

I think any true Potterhead has contemplated getting a piece of HP immortalized on their skin. With 7 books and 8 movies to draw inspiration from, it's no wonder there's so much variety in this tattoo fandom. Here are my picks for the best Harry Potter tattoos

There are numerous places for the Deathly Hallows symbol, but I like this placement between the shoulder blades.

This placement's a tad more suggestive, and I hear it hurts to get tattooed on the bone! Should've gotten it on the boob instead, jeez...

Combining the DH symbol with one of the most memorable quotes definitely makes for an awesome tattoo.

I also the idea of incorporating the DH symbol into a single word for a more minimalist tattoo.

This is a more stylized version of that idea.

This tattoo is cool because it combines the DH symbol, the flying key from the first book and this sentence, which I just love ^.^

Speaking of which...

There is of course the most easily recognizable HP reference without explicitly stating it.

The Dark Mark is another worthy reference, although why anyone would WANT a dark mark is beyond me (Although according to the source page this is a falsey).

Another worthy reference is the sentence "I must not tell lies" on the back of the hand. Again, why somebody would want it is beyond me, although I do dig the white ink tattoos...

There's plenty of fantastic portrait tattoos circulating, but I'm particularly drawn to the memorials of fallen characters like Dobby (although again, this is another fake tattoo).

This one however, is real!

What a fantastic homage to Hedwig (I'm partial to the watercolour style).

Who knew the Marauders' Map would make for such awesome tattoos?

The whole Weasley is our King bit became one of my fave Ron moments, (apart from Ron & Hermione moments cuz you know I ship them hard) and this tattoo really captures that triumph perfectly.

This one really I really get an emotional reaction to, not just because of the Lily/James tragedy but because of the Lily/Snape tragedy too.

Again this is along the same lines, and I like the addition of 'Expecto Patronum' underneath, but does it bother anybody else that the two are facing away from each other?

The multitude of spells in the books make for great tattoos

I particularly like the more delicate placements on the wrist or behind the ear

But the has to be the best placement of them all!
