When it comes to lower back tattoo designs, it can be hard to make a choice. With one in five women with a tattoo having one on their lower back, it’s safe to say their becoming more prevalent. With a few places on a womans body being considered sensual, it’s not hard to see why their becoming more popular.
If you were to list the two most popular areas for women to get tattoos it would be the neck and lower back. The main reason for this is the ease in which they can be hidden. When youre at work in the office they can be easily covered by a shirt. And on Friday night after work they can be put on full display with some low cut jeans and a tight fitting high riding shirt.
Lower back tattoos come in a wide variety of styles, some of which are given below:
1) Dolphin Tattoos – Most women like these because they are just so darn cute. Butterfly tattoos come in a close second here.
2) Flower Designs – These are a popular choice for women especially on the lower back.
3) Tribal Designs – Of the many designs, these are the most widely chosen.The Tribal designs vary greatly ranging from Sun to Celtic.
4) Dragon Designs – You’ll find these on more risqu and adventurous women.
The tattoo decision can be a tough one.Because of the fact that there are many designs to choose from, it would be wise to take your time when choosing a design. If there are any doubts in your mind then step back for a few days and mull it over. You don’t want to rush into something and then later regret it. Tattoo removal can be expensive and be very uncomfortable.
Be sure to dress appropriately when heading out to get your tattoo. This would entail loose fitting clothing that will enable the tattoo artist to work easily. Once you get a lower back tattoo there are some things you need to keep in mind. It’s a good idea to wear loose fitting clothing until the tattoo is healed completely.The importance of this is crucial due to the scarring that can result.

Many people view tattoos as intimate and important parts of their body, as opposed to statements against society. It is now popular to design ones own tattoo instead of choosing from the designs the artist owns. Star tattoo designs are not as simple and common as you may be inclined to think. Many types of star designs exist that you may have never even considered, so put some thought into your tattoo. Not being artistic should not stop you from designing a tattoo, as there are many tools and resources available to aid you with this task.
Ideas For A Star Tattoo Design
The basic star shape has many alterations and customizations that can be used to distinguish your tattoo. The number of points of the star usually varies between four to seven, and anything above seven is usually considered too much. Too many points can make your design confusing and make people unsure of what theyre looking at. If too many points are added, you will have a sun instead of a star.
Some artists encourage shooting star designs for an uncommon, fashionable look. Just like with regular stars, there are numerous design options that can help the tattoo really fit you. The difference between shooting stars and regular stars is that shooting stars feature a depiction of a trail, along with dust and sparkles. For best results, these tattoos usually look best on a shoulder blade or on the lower back, visible above jeans. You can make it work in other places as well, from the ankle, to the arm, to the wrist.
Do not limit yourself to just a star; other objects can be incorporated as well. Suns and moons make great counterparts to a star. In addition to heavenly bodies, you can match essentially anything to a star that you enjoy, from a favorite quote, to a sword, to tribal lettering.
Colored stars have become the popular choice in recent times, as opposed to the simpler monotone design. Many people decide upon multiple colors for their star, and others choose to have the entire range of one color. A basic design with a single color or tone is still the tattoo of choice for some people.
