Let us take a look at the tattoos he has and the meanings they hold.

1. Angel Tattoo

Tattoo: The right side of Pharrell’s neck contains a tattoo of an angel carrying a shield.

Meaning: The angel is actually Archangel Michael, always depicted as an angelic warrior carrying a shield, also known as the angel of protection that is the reason why Pharrell got this tattoo.

NOTE: Pharrell’s arms were covered in many interesting tattoos but he did not like them anymore so he got them removed. At first, he wanted to get skin grafts but then he went for laser removal. He still has to undergo a few more sessions to remove the little traces that are left. However, he has no plans to remove his neck tattoo of Archangel Michael.
