All six of the “liars” on the television show Pretty Little Liars (including Mona) got matching tattoos after they finished filming their final episode on October 28th 2016. They wanted to immortalize their roles on the show, so they each got their characters’ initial tattooed on their index finger so that the tattoo shows when they make the shush motion that they made in the opening credits of the show. Ashley Benson has a letter “H.” for Hanna Marin.

The tattoos were actually Ashley’s idea which she pitched to the other actresses. She told Ellen “I thought that it was a good idea to get tattoos just because it’s been seven years. And we always do the iconic ‘shhh.’ So what better way to do it than on the finger.”

In August 2005, Ashlee Simpson added two new tattoos at the same time to celebrate the completion of her second album I Am Me. One of these tattoos was the word “Love” on her wrist. Ashlee explained the meaning of this tattoo to People Magazine: “I got ‘love’ because for me love is the most important thing. So I can give people love.”

Was this tattoo inspired by her love for a boyfriend? Ashlee says not. “No, it’s not for anyone,” she told About.com. She also joked about why she chose to place it on her wrist: “It’s like Spider-Man, like you shoot love to people [said while shooting her wrist forward like Tobey Maguire does in the “Spider-Man” movies].”

Ashlee Simpson’s very first tattoo was a black outline of a star that she got on her left wrist in 2004 to celebrate the completion of her debut album Autobiography. She told MTV “The first tattoo I got was a star and I got that with a few of my best friends. I have that one when I finished my first record and I have ‘Love’ on my other hand when I finished my second record.”

Jahan Yousaf’s “Krewlife” tattoo is a matching tattoo that she shares with her sister and fellow Krewella member Yasmine Yousaf and two members of Krewella’s crew. All of them got the tattoos together in October 2013. She tells Digital Tour Bus: “On our days off on tour we love to visit tattoo parlors.  We were in Urbana, Illionois and all three of us decided to get tattoos with our director Miles Evert and our tour manager David Carlson.”

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.

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.”
