om symbol (ॐ) Tattoo
Vanessa Hudgens has an tattoo of the om symbol (ॐ) across both of her hands — half on one pinky finger and half on the other.

Vanessa chose this unusual placement so that the tattoo comes together when she puts her hands in a praying or meditating position.
She told Access Hollywood that she got the tattoo “so I can spread positive energy” and that she can “bring it together to center [myself].”
Artist Bang Bang did the tattoo in September 2011. Her friend Ashley Tisdale got her foot tattoo at the same time
