12 Trash Polka Tattoos You Need To See If You Are Planning To Get One

4.This Simple Trash Polka On The Hand

Want to get a Trash Polka but don't want a huge tattoo? Then, this small and straightforward tattoo should be your choice. Apparently, it's a black rose with dabs of red color on it. Remember, a genuine Trash Polka has only two colors, red and black. A body art can't be called a Trash Polka if it has more than these two colors. Tattoo artists around the world are experimenting with other colors, which is something clearly against the norms set by Volko Merschky and Simone Pfaff of Buena Vista Tattoo Club, Germany. As said earlier, the couple invented the Trash Polka tattoo style in 1998.

5.This Trash Polka Design As Side Tattoo

The tat is a bit difficult to understand, and upon a close inspection, we figured out that to be a Latin phrase, "Mea Culpa." The Latin phrase is an English equivalent of "Through my fault." Mea Culpa tattoos are usually worn by people who made a mistake and acknowledged the fact that they were wrong. This tattoo looks good, but the only two downsides are that the girl in the picture needs to get near naked to show off her tattoo to people. Furthermore, the font looks a bit clumsy as well.

6.This Trash Polka Thigh Tattoo

That body art looks a bit creepy, but it shows that a Trash Polka tattoo can have anything as a form of art from flowers and birds to blood and gore. A lot of tattoo enthusiasts around the world believe that a tattoo can be called a Trash Polka only when someone gets it at the Buena Vista Tattoo Club in Germany. Even though many tattoo artists in the world are experts at Trash Polka designs, a lot of people still travel all the way to Germany for an authentic Trash Polka tattoo.
