Getting tattoos on your collarbone requires a certain level of pain tolerance. why? it’s because these points are located just above the clavicle, also known as the bone that connects the sternum (sternum) and the scapula (shoulder bone). As many tattoo enthusiasts know, the closer the skin is to the bone, the more pain you feel when you get that spot inked. however, that fact will not stop tattoo lovers from obtaining this highly coveted ink. Various celebrities like Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Kelly Osbourne, Adam Levine, Bella Thorne and Tom Hardy also proudly sport collarbone tattoos and some tattoos around the collarbone area. Emulate your vibe with a stylish skin design and get your own clavicle tattoos now!
