How innovative is this helix tattoo? Inking the top of your ear is quite unique, and the bright blue blossoms add a beautiful pop of color.

Here's one for the space fans -- a mini galaxy that decorates your whole ear. From Saturn on the tragus, to the moon in conch, to the rings on the upper helix, this delicate dot work pretty much belongs in a museum.

These connected ear tattoos are about as original as they come -- it's a pint-sized origami boat, complete with an even tinier anchor right by the earlobe.

All roses are beautiful, but there's something especially striking about a pink, yellow and orange rose that's the color of a gorgeous sunset on a white sand beach. Why not recreate that beauty in ear tattoo form?

Sometimes, simple is best. These starkly minimalist helix tattoo stripes make quite an impact, and add in a dash of cool factor.
