New year, new ink.
Brooke Shields, 59, and her daughter Rowan Henchy, 21, made a trip to the tattoo shop for matching ink.
The mother-daughter duo both got “and to a party,” a saying the 21-year-old wrote in script, on their forearms at East Side Ink in NYC.
Henchy shared the special outing on her Instagram Story, writing, “Mother-daughter bonding.”
“The Blue Lagoon” actress reposted the pic, adding, “Another matching tattoo with my bug.”
Tattoo artist Mateo Gutierrez, who is responsible for their coordinating ink, shared a behind-the-scenes look at their tattoo appointments via an Instagram slideshow.
In the caption, Gutierrez confessed to not recognizing the famous mother-daughter duo when they walked into the shop.
“Sometimes it is important not to recognize the character, but to know the person,” he wrote.
“Today I had the opportunity to meet both of them (they make a good team). Thanks for the patience, trust, laughter, confidence and tranquility.”
The caption continued, “I will remember tattooing them, the pain of sticking the stencil a thousand times, some of the most difficult handwriting (by: Rowan) and with a photo that for me as a person and professional is very important- and for my family even more (they so admire you).”
Shields and her oldest daughter also have matching ladybug tattoos, which they got in June 2021 to celebrate Henchy’s high school graduation.
“A special graduation gift and memory with my girl,” Shields wrote on Instagram at the time, revealing the itty-bitty tattoos.
“I’m so proud of you, I love you more than words can say.”
And Rowan isn’t the only one getting all the love; Shields’ youngest daughter, budding model Grier Henchy, 18, has a matching tat with her famous mom, too.
On Mother’s Day 2024, Shields and her teen, who made her runway debut at Tommy Hilfiger in September, got ink with a special meaning.

The two opted for black-and-white high-heel tattoos, courtesy of celebrity tattoo artist Scott Campbell.
Campbell, who is also the host of “Stupid Things for Love” podcast, spoke to Shields and Henchy for a Mother’s Day episode.
On the podcast, Shields explained the reasoning for their fashionable art.
“When she was little, she would always just wear my shoes, no matter how teeny she was,” the 59-year-old said of her daughter. “Her whole foot would fit into the toe box.”
Shields shares the two girls with husband Chris Henchy, whom she married in 2001.
Both daughters currently attend Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina — Rowan is a senior, and her younger sis is a freshman.
Grier, it’s your turn to get back in the tattoo shop.
