Post Malone has debuted a massive new skull tattoo inked on the side of his head.

‘I have cut my hair even shorter, also skeletons are cool’, Malone wrote in the caption. ‘Spread your heart as much as you can. A little love goes farther than you think. Stay strong, and keep kicking a**. Love, Austin.’

Malone’s tattoo collection includes a sword, hammer, the phrase ‘Stay Away’, and two ace cards.

Malone has been tattooing his face to increase his confidence about his appearance.   

‘I’m a ugly-ass motherf***er,’ the star told GQ earlier this year, adding that amassing the tattoos in recent years ‘does maybe come from a place of insecurity, to where I don’t like how I look.

‘I’m going to put something cool on there so I can look at myself and say, “You look cool, kid,” and have a modicum of self-confidence, when it comes to my appearance.’  

Malone believes the artwork makes his appearance more captivating.   

‘I feel the face tattoos make me interesting to look at. So, where I might lack in handsomeness, I make up for in intrigue at least,’ he added.

‘I think it looks dope. I think I look mean. Whenever I look in the mirror, I look at myself and it’s not even like they’re there, it’s weird. And then, whenever I get drunk and look at it, it’s like, “Whoa, I (expletive) have all these tattoos all over my face.”‘

Malone expressed similar sentiments when speaking about his facial tattoos during an interview with Tim Westwood TV in 2018.   

‘It’s alright, I got a face for radio anyways, so I figured, why not?’ he said, adding, ‘anything to piss my mom off!’
