Emo, as we know it's like a culture grown in a sadness, gloomy, but usually caught covered by scream, anger, hatred, so emo culture is supressing 2 sides emotion, sadness, gloomy and tear that express in scream, anger, hatred.
The theory is same as emo fashion, usually emo boys or emo girls wear something casual, but looks like tacky, contrast, but cool and great style i think. There we are, we could put tatoo in the same way thought.
Emo tatoo contains 2 sides dramatical line, dot, and color. There's no rules for planting tatoo to your body, but there's a string to be an emos. So i catch you some of picture that give you any suggestion before you get some tatoo.
