20 Glorious Crown Tattoos

While many other symbols are popular because they simply look good, crown tattoos have got attention exactly because of their meaning. Kings and queens, princes and princesses, gods and deities – those with special status, powers and wealth, those who are privileged get to wear this adornment. Each of us at least once has dreamed about being a part of royalty or authority, being superior than others or than yourself at the point of life where you are right now. The Crown is a sign of leadership and as a tattoo can symbolize also the power to rule over oneself. 

As crowns are granted to those who have achieved something special or have gained the access to the throne, they also symbolize achievements, initiation and rising into a higher level. Combined with different figures and symbols crowns appear in tattoos with different personal meanings.  Whatever other symbols you want to get inked on your body, crowns add to them more importance, strength, and extra power.

Princess crown tattoos often get complemented with lettering tattoos like “Daddy’s Girl”, “Princess”, “Queen of Hearts”, “Blessed”, “Majesty”, “Bitch”, “Love” or boyfriend’s name. They can be easily combined with hearts, diamonds, stars, flowers or butterflies, find places on heads of fairies, birds, snakes, cats or frogs  - symbolizing magical fairy tale transformation from ugly frog into beautiful princess.

Crown tattoos for men usually appear on heads of wild animals, popular on heads of lions, dogs,  skulls or clowns, combined with crosses, cards and dices, wings, flames, lucky numbers and other amulets of luck. They can also stand together with significant dates, surnames, initials or letterings like “Player”, “Faithful”, “The King”, “Loyalty”, “Trust”, “Respect”, “Blackjack”, “Lucky”, “Born Bad” and others.

Besides royal princess, queen and king crowns, other forms of crown tattoos are flower wreaths, laurels, leave and vine crowns, but the one symbolizing Christianity is the crown of thorns.
