Hawaiian band Tribal tattoos are commonly found on the arm and the legs. Hawaiian arm tattoos are often a nod to the traditional
Hawaiian tattoo style, though with a decidedly modern appearance.
Michael Malone, tattoo artist and one of the students of Sailor Jerry (see further), created the Hawaiian armband tattoo in the 70s. Although he based his designs on the traditional Hawaiian tattoo motifs, the armband itself is not traditional. The armband tattoo became popular amongst Hawaiian youth that wanted to express its heritage.
