Lower Back Tattoos for Girls

Lower Back Tattoos for Girls
Over recent decades, the most creative tattoo designs for women seem to revolve around the lower back tattoo, despite receiving some nasty labels like "Tramp Stamp", "Bullseye Tattoo" and "Alley Tag"... In this article I'll detail some of the reasons why it remains one of the favoured body parts to tattoo, for women of all ages -- and for the men who also enjoy the view!

In order to design a tattoo that looks as good on your skin as it does on paper, it is necessary to think about WHERE the image will be placed. Your own muscle tone and structure will affect the look of the finished art, especially on arms or legs, so it is wise to seek expert advice from your tattooist regarding final drawings and perhaps modifications, before setting your heart on a design that may not work well in the area you had planned to get inked.

Foot Tattoo Designs For Girls

Foot Tattoo Designs For Girls
Foot tattoo designs are becoming increasingly popular among girls nowadays. The reason for its popularity is the fact that its in an area of the body where it can easily be concealed when needed. And then there's the satisfaction that it definitely look very sexy and interesting when flaunted. Nothing looks hot and flirty than stylish tattoo peeking out of one's stiletto. Girls definitely love the attention it draws to themselves.

As pretty and appealing as it is, there are several disadvantages that come with it. Designs for foot tattoos tend to be smaller in size so they take less time to ink. This pose a very potential problem to watch out for and that is ink migration. Especially since there are lot of movements in the feet area so they are more susceptible to fading and may require touch-ups in the future. The foot is also a painful part of the body to get tattooed as there are lots of nerve endings in that area plus the fact that there are less tissues to cushion the skin during tattooing process.

Good Tattoos For Girls

Good Tattoos For Girls
There are three main traits to look for when you're clicking through good tattoos for girls. If they don't have these three traits, there's a very strong chance that the design might not be as great as you think. It might be just another generic piece of artwork that many sites throw onto their servers. If you want to pick good tattoos for girls, the following information can go a long way toward helping you achieve it.

First of all, so many people rush into getting tattooed and settle on the first design that looks half way decent. Do you know how many of those folks regret the artwork they put on themselves in the long run? Over 95% of them regret it. It's getting out of hand, because people are just following fads and trends, which is the absolute worst thought process to have when looking for good tattoos for girls. So, my first tip is to bypass any galleries that have the same generic stuff over and over again. The first trait a design must have would be originality. It's an absolute must.

The second trait a design must have would be great shading. Many designs can look very, very slick on paper, but once you ink it on your skin, the shading will look totally different, and not in a "happy" sort of way. Many galleries put up designs because they look amazing when you print them out, but they look nowhere near as great once you make them into a real tattoo. You need to bring any design you pick into your favorite artist and have them look at it. Ask them question about the shading and ask them what needs to be done so that it doesn't look like a train wreck once it's put on your body.

Girls are always asking me what tattoos they should get or what I think are the hottest tattoos for girls. Unfortunately there is no clear cut answer simply because there are as many different types of tattoos are there are girls. What one person might find sexy another might consider unattractive or very unfeminine.

Certain styles of tattoos might not suit the image you want to project.

In the past the only way to obtain designs was to either browse the collections of all the tattoo parlours in your local area, or spend lots of money buying tattoo design books. While books and tattoo parlour collections are still excellent ways of acquiring tattoo designs, online tattoo galleries have many advantages.

There are a variety of reasons why looking for tattoo designs online is a fantastic idea. firstly, designs can be browsed from the comfort of home, meaning tattoo enthusiasts can really take their time selecting designs in a comfortable environment. This helps to avoid spare of the moment tattoo decisions, which are regularly regretted later on in life. Another massive benefit of searching for tattoo designs online is that there are literally thousands upon thousands of designs available on the internet.

Tattoo Artist - What Do I Need to Become One

The first thing you need to understand before pursuing a tattoo artist career is what the regulations are in your state. The only states that currently do not have regulations covering this field or their equipment are New Mexico, North Dakota, and Washington D.C. These regulations vary from state to state. For example, in my state Nevada, the state requires the city or county to develop the regulations for the tattoo artist.

Tribal Skull Tattoo Designs


As is the case with any tattoo, the tribal skull tattoo designs depend upon your imagination and creativity. The thick line of tribal tattoos helps greatly in producing the style of the tribal skull design. You can get this tattoo anywhere. But the most outstanding place is on a person's arm, shoulder, and their back. The skull and crossbones tattoo is one of the common skull tattoo designs. You can also tell the tattoo artist to make an evil skull drawing with a banner on the skull that carries your name. There are literally endless possibilities of skull designs to make.

You can also include other design elements such as flames. Flames can be drawn around the skull. Many tribal skulls are just plain black and white but if you add color to yours that makes it more personal. Thick, dark-colored strokes around the skull look great. Most women make a skull tattoo more feminine by adding color even flowers, especially roses. If you want a scary or evil-looking skull tattoo, you could add horns to the skull or show a snake rolled around the skull. If you want something detailed, you could get the grim reaper skeleton skull tattoo. Another interesting suggestion would be to get merely a part of skull tattooed and display flames all around it. You can also make two swords underneath the skull. A lot can be done to make the skull look scary. You can darken the eye sockets. You can also use skull design as a piece of a larger tattoo.
