Tribal Lion Head Temporary Tattoo

This tribal lion head tattoo features bold geometric patterns and angular lines characteristic of Polynesian design traditions. The compact 5x5cm format (roughly cotopads-sized) packs strong symbolism into a discreet size, ideal for those who want powerful imagery without large-scale commitment.

The design uses thick black strokes and symmetrical shapes to create a stylized lion face with strong visual impact. Unlike realistic lion portraits that require large formats for detail, this tribal interpretation works well at small scale through its clean graphic approach. The pattern combines traditional Polynesian motifs with lion symbolism—strength, courage, and leadership.

Our plant-based jagua ink penetrates the skin's surface layer for an authentic matte finish, unlike synthetic transfers that sit on top and create shine. This natural approach means the tattoo resists water, sweat, and friction for 10 to 15 days, compared to 3 to 5 days for standard stickers that fade quickly.

This size works well on the forearm, shoulder, or upper calf where the compact square format sits comfortably. The strong contrast and symmetry make it readable even at this smaller scale, suitable for visible daily wear or testing placement before a permanent version.

Good choice for those drawn to tribal aesthetics, animal symbolism, or geometric patterns. The design appeals to anyone interested in Polynesian-inspired imagery or looking for masculine symbolic designs that stay discreet.
