This 103-year-old woman named Whang Od Oggay is the oldest traditional tattoo artist in the Philippines. Whang Od lives in Kalinga province located in the mountainous area in the northern Philippines and is the last mambabatok—a traditional Kalinga tattooist. This tattoo artist is a well-known master not only in the Philippines, but in other countries as well—every day, people from all around the world come here to get a tattoo from the legend herself.

A tattoo is an inked symbol on your skin, meant to last forever. Suppose you’re considering getting a leg tattoo. In that case, you might find it interesting that leg tattoos signified social status in ancient Egypt and Rome. In Samoa traditions, however, getting tattooed was a sign of bravery. That’s because those who wanted to get them done had to handle incredible levels of pain. Now, if you go for a leg sleeve tattoo, you must also consider your pain tolerance level.
