The lower back is an excellent location for a tattoo. The area provides a fairly large canvass for the tattoo artist but is easily covered by your clothing when displaying a tattoo might be inappropriate. You can chose from a large number of beautiful designs. The only drawback is that you won’t easily be able to admire your tattoo without a mirror.
Your lower back is a very convenient and flexible location for tattoo placement. This is because you can easily hide a tattoo in the lower back when the need arises. For instance, you are going to attend formal gatherings or corporate functions; you’ll never have a difficult time figuring out how you can hide your tattoo, because you just simply need to wear clothing that hides your lower back. The comfort in showing and hiding a lower back tattoo is a definite advantage of getting one.
So, what are the different types of lower back tattoo designs?
Popular designs include floral designs, celtic knotwork, picture designs with people or animals, and occasionally tribal art. Tribal art, with its bold black lines tends to be more popular with men than women. You can choose a tattoo for just the center of the back, or one that goes from hip to hip. Many lower back tattoos are triangular in shape.
For animal imageries, dolphins are quite the favorite because they appear to be really cute in the lower back. Butterflies are also eye-catching animal tattoo designs. The most common tribal designs in the lower back are Celtic styles, stars and sun.
Some women prefer dragons with sinuous lines. Fairies and roses and occasionally hearts can all be used in lower back tattoos. The tattoos can be a picture which relates a story, or simply an attractive design.
In addition to being easily displayed or covered, the lower back is often chosen as the location for a tattoo by women because of its sex appeal. Men often find a woman’s hips or buttocks to be sexually attractive, and a lower back tattoo calls attention to those areas. Men who have tattoos on the lower back generally extend them well above the waist, while women keep them below the waist.
Wherever you get a tattoo, make sure you like the design. It will be with you for a long time. Don’t chose a design that’s too trendy, it will be out of fashion next year and you’ll still have the same tattoo. It’s unwise to use husband’s or boyfriends names in your tattoo.
Getting a tattoo doesn’t end on having the design inked on you body, you should take note of the after-tattoo care. Because the lower back tattoo is placed on you back, you should ensure that you will have someone to help you keep the tattoo clean and dressed for the first few days after the tattooing procedure.
Deciding on the right design can be difficult. Visit Internet tattoo websites and local tattoo artists and take you time in making your decision. After all you have a lifetime to live with your tattoo, make sure your tattoo is something you can love now and forever.
