When it comes to sister tattoos, they do not have to include the same things. For instance, one sister here has a sun tattoo, while the other is sporting a crescent moon tattoo. Rather than being the same, the tattoos are complementary. If you are different yet similar to each other, these sun and moon tattoos are perfect for you. These designs also work wonderfully as brother-sister tattoos, symbolizing the unique bond shared between siblings.
