Analysis of the localization of tattoos on the body of the offender, the dependence of their content on the nature of criminal activity, fashion, national and religious features allowed us to classify tattoos:
1) in the form of expression (symbols, numbers, abbreviations, texts, drawings);
2) by content (signal-exclusive, stratification-status, personality-installation, political, mythological, religious, anti-religious, prison, erotic, decorative, humorous, sentimental, professional and
3) by personal significance ("regs" - from regalia - honorary insignia for the "elite"; "portits" - from porting - "homemade", low quality; "nahalki" - stamps, cheated, t. e. using violence);
4) localization on the body (in open areas, in areas hidden under clothing, in intimate parts of the body, throughout the body);
5) according to the degree of influence on the subject of perception (easily remembered, difficult to remember);
6) by size (small format, large-scale);
7) by methods of application (disposable and repeatedly applied, applied "manually" and using stencils);
8) by quantity (single, numerous, solid);
9) according to the degree of stability (stable, unstable) 1.
First of all, there are abbreviated words (abbreviations) in which the attitudes and values of the tattoo carrier are expressed (for example, BARS - Bay Active, Cut Sook; MORNING - Gone by the Path of the Native Father, that is, the minor inherits the criminal lifestyle from the father, etc. ).
1 All this is disclosed in detail in our book "The laws of the underworld of youth. The criminal subculture." M., 1992.

It is quite common to apply various kinds of rings on fingers that have a signal value (the number of convictions, the length of the sentence, the place where the sentence was served, the position in the group hierarchy, the qualification of the crime committed, etc.).
PLACES OF APPLICATION OF TATTINGS ON HAND BRUSHES *
Next come the patterns of imitation of "prison symbolism" on the basis of the degree of prevalence. Barbed wire, a hussar’s head, a rose, a sun rising over the sea, a seagull over water, maps, a dagger, a pistol, a goblet, a dice, etc. No less value
Fig. 7.17
have various crosses and dots indicating the person’s stay in a closed institution, the amount of the sentence, the number of “walker” (criminal record), etc.
Finally, there are cormorants — drawings whose elements are a dagger that is wrapped around a serpent, a police chase pierced by a dagger, and other similar drawings,
Fig. 7.18
which indicate that their carriers belong to hooligans (art. 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Along with these, there are also “neutral” in content tattoos, which reflect the installation data of their carrier (name, year of birth), reproductions of art paintings, symbols of heroic professions (anchor, steering wheel, etc.). Distributed tattooing sexually-erotic content.
Minors are actively interested in what this or that image means, give it a personal meaning, compete with each other in the demonstration of the most prestigious, catchy drawings and inscriptions. Thus, teens tend to emphasize their "prominence." Tattoo becomes a means of elevation above the teenage environment, demonstrating its exclusivity.
Many tattoos are transferred to modern minors by tradition, changing their meaning in some cases. This happened with the abbreviation "ELEPHANT", which in the 30s were applied by convicts who served their sentences in Solovetsky Special Purpose Camps. This tattoo meant that a person belonged to a particular community of convicts. At that time, a prisoner magazine with the same name "ELEPHANT" was also published. Borrowing this tattoo, minors in modern conditions give a different meaning to this abbreviation, deciphering it differently: Squealer Loves the Sharp Knife, Death to the Guy From the Knife, etc., in which the behavioral attitudes of the personality are expressed.
There is a definite relationship between the nature of criminal activity and tattoos inflicted by adolescents and young men. In tattoos of persons who committed offenses of a mercenary-violent nature, the desire for group criminal solidarity is more clearly seen. Often, minors resort to tattooing in several techniques: for the first time - when entering into an asocial or criminal group, then while staying in a receiving center (remand prison), later - while in a correctional institution. Although over 60% of minors put tattoos on themselves while in distribution centers, the proportion of people who put tattoos in a correctional institution for the first time or repeatedly is still significant.
Although tattoos are applied to all parts of the body, tattoos on fingers (most often rings), brushes (dots, crosses, a bell, an abbreviation), wrists, shoulders, hips, knees and legs, chest, abdomen, back are most common. The number of tattoos varies from individual adolescents and young people from one to numerous, often not subordinate to a single ensemble of drawings.
Comparison of photos with tattoos of different years, collected in different regions and institutions, showed that tattoos are subject to fashion. However, there are fashionable inscriptions and drawings that are traditional for the criminal world.
