I can imagine that having any of these [marijuana tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tattoo-compact) around your neck is much like wearing a stop and search sign (unless you're in Amsterdam). I can also imagine it is also one of the tattoo themes that would potentially get you hassled when you're seeking new employment.

That said, [marijuana plants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rip-n-dip) have got to belong to the most famous icons in the world, instantly recognizable by all. A cultural icon it is.

Moreover, there is no doubt questioning the level of art in the [whole back marijuana tattoo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inkstory). It would be fair to say it blows my mind, and most probably that of the tattoo ‘owner’ too.
