Her “929” Knuckle Tat

Kay, so this is either a reference to Halsey’s birthday (September 29, in case that isn’t clear) or a reference to the 16th track on a mysterious upcoming album. Either way, fans spiraled in the comments.

Their Knee Band-Aid

While Halsey hasn’t explained the deeper meaning behind this design yet, I think we can all agree it was probably pretty painful to get.

Her Juice WRLD Tribute

Instagram

In honor of the late rapper Juice WRLD and the 2020 song “Life’s a Mess” that they made together, Halsey inked the title across her knuckles and wrote, “Juice was one of the greatest people I have ever known and one of the most brilliant artists we will ever live to witness.”

This SNL Tattoo

Twitter

True story: Lil Wayne wrote this out for Halsey right after her Saturday Night Live performance. As in, that’s literally his handwriting. In case you’re wondering how many of my tattoos Lil Wayne designed, the answer is zero.

Their Casual Face Tat

Instagram​

A bold move, to be sure. Halsey has said this queen of diamonds will “hopefully” be their only face tattoo in a since-deleted Instagram post. So don’t expect her to pull a Lil Xan.

“I’m a Loser Baby”

This is pretty clearly a reference to Beck’s 1994 song “Loser,” but as for why Halsey felt the need to get it scrawled across their neck? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Marilyn Manson’s…Face

Instagram

You might be wondering…um…WHY. Apparently, Halsey is just a Manson fan, which she explained on Twitter, writing, “Got Manson tatted on my ribs. I love Adelaide so much already. Marilyn. Not Charles. Sheesh lol.”

Halsey revealed this tattoo in May 2019, and I think it’s safe to assume it’s a reference to their song of the same name. But, ya know, feel free to @ us with any elaborate theories.

“These Violent Delights…”

This quote probably sounds pretty familiar if you read Romeo and Juliet in high school watched Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo + Juliet in high school. Anyway, Halsey got it tattooed after signing their record deal as a reminder to “pace herself.”

Their Line Drawing Shoulder Roses

Halsey has had these since her 16th birthday, and she got them purely for aesthetic reasons. “I went and got something that meant absolutely nothing and just looked beautiful,” they said. “It’s still one of my favorite tattoos because I’ll never dislike it. It just is cool-looking. It’s really simple. I think it’s really elegant.”

Her “EVERYTHING” Tattoo

Instagram

This tattoo is also rumored to be a shout-out to Halsey’s ex Lido, mostly because Everything is the name of his album. But who knows, maybe it’s just a self-portrait! Calm down, everyone!

The Anchor on Her Foot

This was Halsey’s first tattoo and features their mom’s initials, NFC. And turns out, Halsey’s mom actually has a matching tattoo, which, cute! “My mom was like, ‘We anchor each other,’” Halsey told iHeart. “I was like, ‘That’s beautiful, Mom. Just let me get a tattoo. I don’t care what it is. I just want to be cool.’”

~The Planet Mars~

“I got Mars because I met a guy on tour that I became really good friends with, and his birthday is on my half birthday and I’m a Libra,” Halsey told iHeart. “So my ruling planet is Venus and his ruling planet is Mars, which are also opposites. So it’s, like, opposite birthdays, opposite signs, technically opposite personalities in astrology but complete opposites, and we were really good friends. So I got Mars and he got Venus. We got each other’s planet.”
