Harry Styles on his tattoos: 'Anyone who says they don't hurt is a liar'

One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles recently added some new body art to his growing collection and explained that he is particularly attracted to the traditional tattoo style typically seen on sailors.

Speaking to US Weekly, the 'Little Things' hitmaker revealed that his new inkings of identical swallows under his collarbones (pictured left) are symbolic of travelling:

"I did get some new tattoos! I got two swallows on my chest. I like that kind of style of tattoos, like the old sailor kind of tattoos. They symbolise traveling, and we travel a lot!"

He added that despite getting new tattoos regularly, he can never get used to how it feels because it's a painful experience: "Anyone who says tattoos don't hurt is a liar!"

Meanwhile, One Direction performed live on last night's (November 8) X Factor USA and have also announced that their new U.S. single will be called 'Kiss You'.
