Tattoo Placement Suggestions

By Abram Vanorden


Among the many considerations to ponder upon, when thinking of getting a tattoo is where to place it. It is always a problem where to place a tattoo whether you're inking it for the first or the nth time. There are of course several tattoo placement ideas you can look into to alleviate the problem.

Tattoos that you want to be hidden are best placed at the back of the neck, if your hair is long enough to cover it. Other suggested places would be the hips, lower back or upper thighs.

In Japan, shrines are dedicated to wolves, known as okamis or great gods to them. The Japanese seek the protection of their crops by these wolves from boars and deer. Protection may be the primary meaning wolf designs take when they are included in meaningful tattoo ideas.

Tattoo visibility is another consideration when picking which of the many tattoo placement ideas to implement. Much thought must be given to this tattooing aspect because of the permanency of the tattoo. Next on your list of decisions to make in choosing a body area among the varied tattoo placement ideas out there is whether you want your tattoo to be inked upside down or right side up. Tattooists are in unison in their beliefs that a tattoo should be more visible, to its viewers other than yourself.

Small tattoo ideas can also have meanings behind it. These meanings may have a tradition behind them or not. Definitely, all tattoos have a personal meaning to their wearers, which may be quite different from the meanings universally attached to the tattoo designs.

The butterfly represents the soul of somebody based on Japanese tradition while the image of two butterflies flying together is symbolic of love according to the Chinese tradition. The Greek word equivalent to butterfly loosely translates to the English word, soul.
