Lil Xan’s Face Tattoos

First Face Tattoo ‘Candy’ on the Left cheek

Lil Xan got his first face tattoo when he was 18 years old. He wanted to go all out and get a face tattoo but was too sacred of his mom.  He thought if he gets his mom’s name tattooed on his face then she won’t be mad at him. So, he got his mom’s name ‘Candy’ tattooed on his face below the left cheek. People think it means ‘Eye Candy’ but its actually his mom’s name.

‘1996’ on the Left side of the face

Lil Xan got his birth year 1996 tattooed vertically on the left side of his face

‘Love Heart’ and ‘Soldier’ Tattoo on the Left Cheek

Lil Xan added a small love heart tattoo on his face right under his mom’s name and later he got the word ‘Soldier’ tattooed below the love heart.

Three ‘Z’s (Zzz) and ‘Low’on the Right cheek

This tattoo does not have any particular meaning. But Lil Xan is always touring and on the road. He nods off quiet often on the bus or on the plane. So, the tattoo represents him perfectly.

Lil Xan started out his career in a hip hop group called Low Gang. So, to pay tribute to his homies Steve Cannon and Aris Ray from Low Gang he got ‘Low’ tattooed on his face.

‘LOVER’ tattoo on the Right cheek

Lil Xan covered his ‘LOW’ tattoo with ‘LOVER’ later.

‘XANARCHY’ tattoo on the Forehead

When Low gang wasn’t really taking off, Lil Xan created Xanarchy. He got the name tattooed on his forehead.

Controversial Upside Down Cross tattoo next to the Right eye

Lil Xan’s fans went crazy when he got the Upside Down Cross tattoo on his face. He twitted to his fans that he is not a devil worshiper but he thinks people believe that he sold his soul for a good price because of the lyrics of his song ‘betrayed’ which is “Pop the trunk, I open up, I sold my soul for a good price”. He wants his fans to keep guessing.

His second tattoo was right next to the first tattoo on the inner right forearm. He is a bit shy to talk about this tattoo because he thinks the meaning of this tattoo is too corny. Its a number 6 and some squiggles next to it.
