Flower tattoos on men might seem taboo, but they're perfectly normal and should be treated as such. Certain flowers also look particularly great on men, though no flower species is off-limits. In fact, according to The Trend Spotter, some of the most popular tattoos on men are the same species that are popular on women. These include daisies and roses, which can symbolize love and strong relationships/bonds.
Another popular flower for men is the lotus. Next Luxury explains that men are often drawn to this flower because it looks less like other flowers and is more geometric in shape. It's a unique take on flower tattoos in most men's minds, though the lotus in this style is also associated with Japanese cultural practices so it can fall into cultural appropriation territory very quickly.
If men want something historical or mythological, they can opt for a narcissus tattoo (via The Trend Spotter). This flower shares a name with the Greek figure who was obsessed with his own reflection — it's also the root of the word "narcissism" today — and it embodies a lavish shape, which makes for a beautiful tattoo.
Other popular tattoo flowers for men, per The Trend Spotter, include forget me nots, hibiscus flowers, and flower designs that feature skulls. The addition of the skull is typically to make the tattoo feel more "manly," but this combination has also been around forever. It's a classic choice that can serve as someone's gateway into flower tattoos.
