Barbiecore is now a permanent trend, thanks to Barbie sole tattoos.

Vintage 1960s Barbies have inspired the body art.

These dolls had the word “Japan” stamped underneath the right foot.

However, Mattel’s Barbara Millicent Roberts aka Barbie was not the first toy that influenced sole tattoos.

Now Barbie is bringing the hidden ink back to the spotlight, with no inverted letters required.

They match the doll’s “Japan” stamp the closest while still having a personalized touch.

Barbie fans, beware that getting the bottom of your foot tattooed takes guts.

The area is a thin layer of skin riddled with nerve endings.

In other words, it is going to hurt.

Apart from the pain, foot tats tend to fade quicker than other areas because of the constant friction.

Keeping your Barbie sole tattoo crisp and clean will require more maintenance than other tats might.

However, you might still enjoy a Barbie-inspired tattoo without hammering at the bottom of your trotters.
