From standard logos to patterned designs, I am bringing you the quirkiest and most artistic Playboy tattoos you have seen!
I have to admit that I get a kick out of doing Playboy bunny tattoos - it is a throwback to when I was a teenager and both boys and girls had Playboy merch. To top it off, my clients always come in with some really creative ideas too!
Not only have I found the best Playboy bunny tattoo ideas for you but I have also given you some background info on some of the designs!
Here are the top Playboy bunny tattoos you need to check out:
If you are looking for a simple Playboy Bunny tattoo, then this is the design that you may want to consider for yourself. It features the iconic bunny with a bowtie.
According to Hugh Hefner, he chose the bunny as the Playboy bunny logo because of the humorous sexual connotation but put the bunny in a tuxedo to add the idea of sophistication. The Playboy magazine was meant to separate itself from other sensual magazines of the time. The logo is now synonymous with the Playboy brand.

This can be a good Playboy bunny tattoo to get if you are looking for a simple design. For this Playboy tattoo, you can choose to just get the outline of the Playboy logo. You can choose black ink for a more minimalistic design, although a red outline can make for a more provocative design.

Your other option can be to color in this iconic bunny design so that it looks like a shadow. If you want, you can include the Playboy tagline underneath your Playboy bunny tattoo if you like!

Want to do something a bit more unusual? Then get a magic bunny Playboy tattoo with the logo jumping out of a magician's hat.
Want your Playboy tattoo to really stand out? Then you should consider getting a neon Playboy bunny tattoo! For a slightly subtler version, you can simply make the Playboy bunny look as though it is constructed of neon lighting.

If you don't mind going all out with your Playboy tattoos, then you may want to consider including a black background to your neon Playboy bunny. This will make the bunny really stand out against the darker color.

This is such a cool Playboy bunny tattoo - as the name says, you make the logo look like it is made from chrome. I love how this is a throwback to an older generation but there is still a classic air about it.

Now, with chrome tattoos, it is all about picking the right colors, understanding shading, and knowing how to put them together to create the right tattoo design. Due to this, it is a good idea to hire a talented tattoo artist to help you create the look that you are going for.

If you are looking for a more sensual Playboy bunny tattoo, then you can consider this one. Such a Playboy tattoo can depict dripping honey or drip - an awesome sense of style. In any case, this kind of tattoo has the vibe that you would expect from a Playboy bunny design.

I really love these kinds of Playboy tattoos. This is because it allows you to get really creative. Most people would expect a sexy or even graphic Playboy bunny tattoo. The floral design, however, puts a new twist on your Playboy tattoo.

Here, you get artistic with your tattoo design - in fact, you can actually choose floral works of art to include in the Playboy bunny design!

If you are considering getting a bit more of a thought-provoking Playboy bunny tattoo, then this is a design that you may want to think about getting. Here, you have a woman's face drawn within the outline of the Playboy bunny.

Now, this kind of tattoo can be a way of alluding to the women who made the Playboy Bunny concept so popular in the first place. This kind of tattoo could also be a way to depict the femininity and sensuality associated with Playboy bunnies as well.

If you want, you can also choose to get quite creative with your tattoo. For instance, instead of getting any old woman, you can get one who is donning makeup similar to the sugar skulls during the Day of the Dead.
This can be a great way to do something different with your tattoo as well.
This kind of Playboy bunny tattoo is a bit different - here you depict the Playboy bunny as a woman. After all, the term Playboy Bunny was initially used to describe the waitresses who worked at the Playboy clubs.

The waitresses were known for their great customer service that included light flirtations as well as efficiency. They were also identifiable by those iconic uniforms. In the beginning, the uniform consisted of a strapless bodysuit along with rabbit tails and ears. However, the uniform was elevated into a whole new status when a man's tuxedo collar, bowtie, and cufflinks were added into the mix.

One of the reasons to get this kind of Playboy bunny tattoo is because it can be a symbol of what the Playboy magazine and clubs were meant to be - a type of sexual liberation and sexual freedom. So, you can opt for a bit more of a graphic Playboy bunny tattoo if you want.

Also, if you are a woman getting this Playboy bunny tattoo, then it can also be a way for you to reclaim the sexual liberation that was inferred but never really delivered on.
When you think of enduring sexual icons, Betty Boop will likely come to mind. With her come-hither looks and provocative clothes and manner, Betty Boop is the perfect cartoon character to combine with the iconic bunny in a Playboy bunny tattoo.

There are a few different ways that you can make this Betty Boop/Playboy bunny tattoo design. One Playboy tattoo idea is to have the Betty Boop and the logo side by side. Or, your Playboy tattoo can consist of Betty Boop contorted into the logo shape.

Another Playboy bunny tattoo idea to consider is to have Betty Boop dressed up as one of the bunnies. This is a great option if you are looking for a more classic design.

Now, going for a bunny skull Playboy tattoo design is a bit of a departure from sexier themes but this is still a really cool idea! For one thing, the darker elements of this tattoo can both clash and complement the sexy element of the Playboy bunny.

Of course, a bunny skull Playboy tattoo can also be a way to reveal the hidden depths of the Playboy brand and its legacy. While it was meant to be a form of sexual freedom, the reality was that the women of the clubs, magazines, and the company were poorly treated and sexualized.

Of course, you can always choose this Playboy bunny tattoo because the feature image is unusual and it boasts a striking design.

Now, a barbed wire tattoo can be considered a rather classic and somewhat masculine tattoo. So, using this concept to create a Playboy bunny can be a way to put a whole new twist on the logo.
Image by @kataotattoo via Instagram
For one thing, it helps to soften the concept of barbed wire a little bit by adding the sexuality of the rabbit. At the same time, this also gives a vibe of a co-existence of pleasure and pain.

In any case, this is a really cool design to consider for yourself!

As you may recall, Playboy seemed to reach a fever pitch in the early 2000s - the logo was on everything from clothes to fragrances and it was considered all the rage. This was right about the time that it was also really popular to have visible brand logos on clothing and accessories.

So, if you were a Y2K kid or tween, then these tattoos can be a bit of a throwback to these times of excess and glitter. Here, you have the logos or aesthetics associated with popular brands included within the outline of the bunny!

If you want to go retro with your tattoo, then you may want to consider this design instead. Here you have the bunny bobbing through a lava lamp. In case you'd like your tattoo to look really retro, then opt for a traditional tattoo style to seal the deal!

This is such a cute tattoo idea - here you have the bunny as a charm, dangling off of a charm bracelet! Another approach to this kind of tattoo would be to get the charm hanging off of a keychain.
