In an interview with James Corden during his One Direction days, Styles said he even gave himself at least one tattoo. That 2015 interview also proved the site of another possibly stupid tattoo, when Corden challenged the band to a “tattoo roulette. Under his left armpit is an empty bird cage, two theater masks, and the acronym “ SNCL,” which stands of “smile now cry later. And finally, on each side of his abdomen, Styles has a fern leaf, reportedly a cover up of previous ink which said “might as well. He also has an “ x” over his right ankle and two screws in his right big toe, an apparent One Direction band tattoo about staying grounded.

Below the shaking hands on Styles’ elbow is the phrase “ SILVER SPOON” and written across the front side of the elbow is the name “ Jackson,” a photographer. On his left bicep beside the pirate ship are several tattoos, including a black heart (no clue), three nails (no clue), a coat hanger (still no clue), a black star, a Green Bay Packers logo (he loves them), the word “ hi,” and an English cookie related to his sister’s name Gemma. Below the triangle is a tuxedoed skeleton framed in a card, which apparently is just a cool-ass image he got on tour. Farther down the inside of the forearm, Styles has a bottle of liquor surrounded by the text “YOU BOOZE YOU LOSE. Styles’ tattoos are often disparate—individual pieces representing family members, music references, and personal experiences, as well as just aesthetic interests and terrible on-camera choices.His left wrist is speckled with several more tattoos: a padlock (done by Ed Sheeran), a shamrock, a key, the Aquarius sign, “ 99p” (99 pence), the word " Pingu" (a British children's TV show penguin) and a giant anchor (a cover up for the previous tattoo “I can’t change").

Just underneath is a naked mermaid ( Styles in an interview: “I am a mermaid”) beside the letter “ R” (his late stepfather) and some kind of demented cherub looking thing (beats us). His punishment: tattooing, in front of the audience, “Late Late” somewhere on his body in reference to Corden’s show. The musician got his first tattoo on his eighteenth birthday in 2012, choosing to ink the outline of a star on his left bicep. The centerpiece of Styles’ left arm seems to be a pirate ship tattoo, another nautical traveling image like the swallows.And on each shoulder, he wears a cursive “ g” and “ A,” the “ g” standing for his sister Gemma and the A for his mom, Anne.
