Key Takeaways

What matching tattoos did Jessica Alba and Honor get?

The mother-daughter duo chose delicate designs for their wrists: an eye paired with an infinity sign. Tattoo artist Daniel "Winterstone" Winter created the art and shared a close-up on social media on July 5.

"What a way to show love with an unforgettable experience!" Winter wrote, adding that Alba and her daughter had made "a memory they will share forever."

Honor gave fans the first look on July 1, posting a photo of herself and the actress, 45, holding hands over a car's center console. She captioned the shot, "Me x Mama ♾️♾️♾️."

Why did Jessica Alba and Honor get tattoos before college?

The ink marks a send-off moment before a major life change. Honor is heading to Yale University after graduating from high school earlier this year, leaving Los Angeles for Connecticut in the fall.

Alba has been open about the emotional weight of the milestone. In May, she told followers her heart "ache[d] with pride" and wrote that "every moment of being [Honor's] mom has been one of the greatest gifts of my life."

Matching tattoos offer a permanent reminder of their bond as Honor starts this new chapter away from home.

Where is Honor Warren going to college?

Honor Warren will attend Yale University in Connecticut. The Ivy League-bound teen graduated from high school in May, and Alba marked the occasion with a heartfelt Instagram tribute at the time.

According to Page Six, the family milestone comes as Alba co-parents Honor, Haven, and Hayes with ex-husband Cash Warren following their 2025 split.

Has Jessica Alba gotten meaningful tattoos before?

Yes. In 2019, Alba got her three children's astrological signs tattooed on her arm, writing on Instagram, "These are permanent and I won't regret these ones. These are my babies."

After announcing her split from Warren in 2025, the Honest Company co-founder added more ink with Winter's help—including the phrase "life is transformation is life" on her forearm and a phoenix rising design on her upper back.
