Check Out Cardi B’s 10 Tattoos, Including 1 That Took 60+ Hours to Complete

On Cardi B’s left wrist, she has the name “Tommy G” tattooed in red ink for her ex Tommy Geez, whom she was dating during the time she was a cast member on Love & Hip Hop: New York. The two went their separate ways in 2016, but you can still see the faded ink on the underside of her wrist.

Cardi B previously had the name “Samuel” tattooed on the back of her neck in red ink, though she’s never revealed the meaning. Fans speculate Samuel may be the name of an ex, as the rapper told Ellen DeGeneres during an appearance on her show in October 2019 that she had more than one ex’s name tattooed on her body. “I have like three different men tatted on me, you know what I’m saying? They gotta go!” she said. Later, in June 2020, Cardi B tweeted a picture of her new butterfly tattoo cover-up, writing, “I never showed ya my cover tatt. What ya think?”

In July 2019, Cardi B got her husband’s name tattooed on the back of her left thigh in black cursive. Offset shared a picture of the new ink on IG soon after she got it, and a few months later, Cardi shared an up-close-and-personal video of the tat.

On Cardi B’s right wrist, you’ll find “Belkis” in black ink, which is likely a shortened version of Cardi B’s legal name, Belcalis.

Behind her right ear, Cardi B has a black-ink drawing of “I love you” in sign language as well as a tiny red star. The rapper has never publicly spoken about the tat, so its meaning is unclear.

Inside her right bicep, Cardi B inked the phrase “Loyalty Over Royalty” in black cursive letters. Like many of her other tats, Cardi B has never offered an explanation for this one.

On the inside of her left bicep, Cardi B has a black-ink tattoo reading “Hennessey” along with three roses, which is likely an ode to her younger sister, whose name is Hennessy Carolina.
