Where are Some of the Best Places on Your Body For Tattoos?

Tattoos are increasingly becoming more mainstream. These days, it seems that the number of people with at least one tattoo is larger than the number of people with none. Perhaps the main reason for the increase in popularity is the vast number of designs available on the internet. Tattoo artists and enthusiasts can now share their designs with the world, thus bringing this form of body art to more people.

If you're someone who's been looking on the internet for tattoo designs, then you've undoubtedly come across many great choices. You can get any number, letter, phrase, image, or symbol from any culture tattooed on your body. You can even make any type of combination you wish with limitless choices. Japanese inspired tattoos are particularly popular these days.

Perhaps you've even decided on a tattoo, and are now wondering which body part it will look best on. For the most part, men and women have different preferences, but that's not always the case. Many people wish to consult with a tattoo artist in order to ascertain where on their body a specific tattoo would best fit; however, you can make that choice on your own if you have the right type of knowledge.

With that being said, here are some of the most popular body parts for a tattoo:

• Lower back – This is most popular tattoo spot for women. Lower back tattoos are considered to be sexy, as a woman can choose whether or not she wants to expose it to the world. Many female celebs like Jessica Alba and Angelina Jolie have lower back tattoos.

• Wrist and ankle – These are also popular with female celebs, although many men prefer these spots as well. They can be well hidden with socks, sleeves, watches, and bracelets. Many women also find that wrist and ankle tattoos can be enhanced with lovely bracelets and anklets.

• Arm tattoos – Some people prefer band tattoos that circle around their arm, while others prefer full sleeve tattoos which covers their entire arm. There are also those who end up with just a regular, ordinary arm tattoo. Usually, men are the ones with some type of arm tattoo or other, although an increasing number of women are getting them as well.

• Chest tattoos – These look great on men and women both. Like lower back tattoos, women can cover chest tattoos up. Or, if they want to show it off, they can go to the beach and wear a bikini top. Actress Christina Ricci and rap artist Eve are both women with chest tattoos. Many male celebs, such as Dwayne Johnston (The Rock) have chest tattoos as well.

These are just some ideas that will help you decide where on your body to get a tattoo. You can still consult with your tattoo artist if you need recommendations. Ultimately, however, the decision should be your own. Get a tattoo wherever YOU want, and not where anyone else wants. If you want to follow any trends, that's fine---just make sure it's something you really want for yourself.
