Taylor Swift fans in Australia are signing their love for the star, forever and ever.
Hundreds of Swifties flooded tattoo parlors in Melbourne, Australia, ahead of Swift’s Eras Tour, stopping by to get a Swiftica-themed tattoo — with some fans even waiting in long lines of up to 50 minutes.
VC Ink Tattoo Gallery shared a post on social media earlier this week letting fans know they are launching a Swift-inspired design that features lyrics and motifs inspired by the Grammy winner’s music. Each design could be tattooed for $150, and two fans could also win free tattoos from the collection.
The design included song titles like “Cruel Summer,” “Getaway Car,” “Karma,” and “All Too Well,” as well as a snake representing Swift’s Reputation album, a sweater with stars representing the song “Cardigan” and a disco ball inspired by “Mirrorball”.

The company also showed a photo of a long line of people waiting outside its shop on its Instagram Story and noted that the estimated wait at one point was 40 to 50 minutes for tattoos. He also reposted several stories from fans who were signed, including one who received a design of two hands forming a heart shape, then shared Swift doing the same.
A fan tagged the shop in his post and wrote: “You ask me how I feel about getting a tattoo 🫶 after seeing myself on the Eras Tour last night? I feel fearless.”
VC Ink wasn’t the only company offering Swift-inspired tattoos over the weekend. Popular Fine Line Tattoos also launched a “flash tattoo event” that took place over the weekend, according to Australia’s News Corp.

The popular TikToker shared a video of herself waiting in line and later getting a tattoo during a flash event. She showed off Swift-inspired business tattoos, which also included a cardigan, a disco ball and the lyrics to “Karma.”
However, Popular Fine Line Tattoos also featured a dragon tattoo to represent Swift’s song “Long Live,” a broken champagne glass to represent “Champagne Problems,” and a koi fish, which appears in her “Lavender Haze” music video. The company offered tattoos for $200.

A TikToker who goes by the name Lizzie.Mouse noticed that she decided to get “Lover” tattooed on her ribs. One of her friends opted for a “Fearless” tattoo, and another got a koi fish on her skin.
She added, “We’re all so obsessed with how our little Swiftie friendship tattoos turned out.”
Fans showed off their new ink at Swift’s Melbourne stop, where Swift whipped out her guitar for a medley of “Getaway Car,” “August” and “The Other Side of the Door.”
The singer told fans before the song, according to a fan-filmed clip, “I just really want you to be happy because you make me happy. So I figured you might want to hear this one. Let me know though.”
