Sisters share an unspeakable bond. Even if they’re far away from each other or have drifted apart, that bond continues to connect them together. And what a great way to seal and share that bond than through matching tattoos.
If you and your sister have been planning to get matching tattoos, here are a few ideas to get you started.


1. Flying V
Have you seen a flock of birds in flying V formation? They fly this way to help lift each other’s wings. And isn’t that what sisters do? They help lift each other up.

6. Yin And Yang
Sisters don’t have to be exactly alike to get along. In fact, sometimes that’s not a good thing. Sisters also need to balance each other out, be the yin to their yang, the day to their night, and vice versa.
