Jahan Yousaf
Jahan Yousaf’s first tattoo was “6-8-10” on the left side of her neck. It represents June 8th, 2010, the day that she and her Krewella bandmates put their lives on hold to pursue their music career full-time. In a blog post, she explains:
6/08/10 is the day I decided to drop out of college and quit my side-hustle job along with my sister Yasmine, our former band-member Kris, and our manager Nathan Lim who found us on Myspace. Letting go of the security of my college education as well as my source of income was terrifying, but in the back of my mind I knew that Krewella would never see the light of day if we didn’t nurture the project with daily practice, discipline, and work ethic. If we didn’t make the decision as a group to abandon all other pursuits to commit ourselves to music, I think I would have spent my life always wondering what Krewella could have been. I think I would have been tortured with resentment for not taking a risk. When we got the date tattoo’d on our necks, it was symbolic of our promise to Krewella, to never give up, and in a sense trapped us from ever getting jobs that required us to cover the ink in such an exposed place.
Her sister Yamsine, who has the same tattoo in a different font, bought her the tattoo for her 22nd birthday. Since then, she has surrounded this tattoo with other inkings, but she hasn’t covered it.

Yasmine Yousaf has a paisley design on her neck. It is half of a yin-yang symbol .svg){kind=small}
, and her sister Jahan has the other half. “We’re doing a yin-yang, but in a paisley style. We’re each getting fifty percent of the yin and yang,” Yasmine told Rolling Stone. The yin and yang is a Chinese symbol which represents the duality of opposite forces.
They got the ink done by artist Bang Bang, who has tattooed Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, and many other stars. “We’re big fans of his work, so it fucking awesome to be tattooed by him,” she says. She and Jahan both placed the tattoos next to their 6-8-10 neck tattoos, which is another matching tattoo that they share.

All of the members of Krewella, including ex-member Kris “Rain Man” Trindl and their manager Nathan Lim, have tattoos commemorating 6-8-10 (June 8, 2010) — the date that they all put their lives on hold to pursue music full-time. Yasmine describes it as their “dedication day.” “We had been a band since 2007,” she told Lewis Howes, “but June 8th 2010 was the dedication day. Jahan dropped out of college. It was a couple days after I graduated high school. So it was the date we all, when Kris was in the group, we all three decided ‘this is gonna be the no-turning-back day.’ Who knows what’s gonna happen. We might not go anywhere, but we’re gonna try at least.”

Cheryl Cole
Cheryl, who’s maiden name is Cheryl Tweedy, got this “Mrs C” tattoo on the back of her neck after getting married to football player Ashley Cole in 2006 and changing her last name to Cole. Unfortunately the couple were divorced in 2010. She told The Guardian that she does not plan to remove this tattoo, saying “I’m not ashamed of anything. I’ve got nothing to rub away.”
She did not immediately change her name either, adding “I don’t feel sentimental about the name. If I went back to being Cheryl Tweedy, I’d be… I’m not ashamed of my marriage, it’s a period in my life. And I am Cheryl Cole. That’s how I feel.” However she took on the name Cheryl Fernandez-Versini after marrying Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini in July 2014.
