Lower back tattoos were hardly seen that much prior to the 1990s, when crop tops and short shirts were trendy. Girls found out that they could showcase a great tattoo and that a lower back tattoo increased the focus on their feminine curves and waistline. Even though it's been a decade, sexy lower back tattoos for girls are still going strong. In fact, they are one of the most popular tats for girls today!

Most lower back tattoos are and elongated shape that is widest in the middle and tapers out to the sides. Some are a shaped like a "V" to dramatically highlight the body's natural curve. A popular choice is to get a central image surrounded by lines that branch outward. For instance, hearts, stars, butterflies, dolphins, dragons, or Celtic cross images are popular for the central focus. Vines wings, flames, or other designs that swirl and twist are popular surrounding designs. Many look kind of "tribal" in nature. For a unique twist on your lower back tattoo, it can wrap around further to the sides or even to the stomach.

Round tattoos are also a popular choice for the female lower back. This produces quite a different look, but it is still a focal point and makes an energetic statement. Generally, oblong tattoos are regarded as "sexier" or "girlier" because they do a better job of highlighting feminine curves, but the choice is up to you. Images like suns and moons are seen a lot on round lower back tattoos.

Tattooing the lower back is a fabulous choice for a lot of reasons. First, the lower back offers a perfect flat canvas to work with. It's almost as if the spot was made for a tattoo. Skin on the lower back won't change much with age or weight fluctuations, so your tattoo will look great for decades and you won't have to worry about it. It's always a little suggestive to flash a lower back tat - it's like having a hidden but highly decorated piece of your skin peek out for just a second, and that's very attractive.

As we said before, lower back tattoos are the number one tattoo fro women today. So if you think that it may bother you to have a tattoo so many other people already have, you might want to choose another location. According to some sources, 20% of women have a lower back tattoo. If you are in love with a design that will go just perfect across your lower back, then get it. In the end it doesn't matter what other people have - only what you think. But if making the conventional choice was never for you, maybe find something a little more daring instead.

Ankle tattoo are very sexy on women. In fact women's ankles are often referred to as one of the sexiest parts of their body. In fact in recent years there has been a huge growth of the lower back tattoo because so many men and women think it looks sexy. For sure it does there is not debating it. However before the lower back tattoo many women were getting very sexy ankle tattoos. These tattoos are great for a variety of reasons. They are discreet, they are very feminine, and they are typically inexpensive to get inked.

While men and women who are considering tattoos have many of the same issues, there are some things that women need to give additional thought to before getting their tattoo(s). For those ladies who want to be sure to get a feminine tattoo that looks good for life, where the tattoo is placed is probably even more important than what the tattoo is.

Due to normal aging and the changes that occur during pregnancy, women's bodies are subject to more alterations in the tension and appearance of the skin in certain areas than what is common for men. You don't want a nice, pretty, feminine tattoo in a place where it is likely to be on sagging or stretch-marked skin. Not only do potential skin changes make some areas unsuitable, tattoos can draw attention to areas that you might want to be less noticeable at some point in your life.

Because of this, I recommend that women seeking tattoos consider areas in which there are not dramatic changes in skin tone and flexibility. For example, the ankle, shoulder blade, back of the neck, or lower back areas work well in most cases. Another area where the skin tends to stay relatively firm is the forearms, but this area is more popular for masculine as opposed to feminine tattoos.

The belly-button area and the breasts are pretty popular areas for feminine tattoos, but these spots are particularly susceptible to a lot of changes in skin elasticity because of pregnancy and to some extent, normal aging. The lower abdomen and pubic area can also be susceptible to sagging, and so while tattoos in these areas can look very sexy, they might not be the best locations over time.

Once you decide on the where, the next step is the what. To begin with, my first recommendation is to NOT get a tatoo of your lover's name anywhere on your body. No matter how good the relationship is right now, things can change!

The possible choices for what tattoo to get are infinite, so it can be hard to choose. Take your time and figure out what you really want, because short of some really painful (and not 100% effective) methods, once you have it, you can't change your mind. I suggest checking as many resources as you can before making a decision, and you might want to look specifically at galleries dedicated to feminine tattoos, if that's what you want, because it will save you a lot of time.

If you are leaning towards a design like a flower, or a Celtic knot, basically you just choose whatever design you like. A little more research is recommended if you are going to use some kind of symbol or Asian language character that might have a meaning that you would prefer not to have permanently inked on your body. Just because the tatooist thinks a given symbol means something, doesn't mean he or she is right. That lovely Asian character that you think means "Beautiful One" might actually translate to "Cow Dung". So, be sure to do some of your own research before getting a symbol tattoo.

Have you ever noticed how incredibly sexy ankle tattoos look on women? You see I think many people missed the boat by getting lower back tattoos instead. Ankle tattoos are every bit as sexy if not even sexier then lower back tattoos and they are not as over played and boring. Ankle tattoos are a great tattoo for a first trimmer or someone that already has a lot of tattoos. They are discreet and easy to cover up or show off depending on the situation, they lend themselves to smaller more feminine designs, and typically very inexpensive to design and get inked.

Discreet and Irresistible
You see that many women today have gotten the lower back tattoo right? One reason that this is so popular of a tattoo location is that it is partially hidden from view. The fact that only part of it is revealed can peak a person's curiosity to want to see more. Well ankle tattoo are exactly the same way. They can easily be covered all the way up with a pair of tall socks. Or a female might decide to be more flirty and reveal some of the ankle tattoo while keeping some of it covered up for mystery.

Smaller In Size
Typically ankle tattoos are smaller in size due to their location and the amount of skin to cover. However, this can be used to the benefit of the female getting this incredible tattoo. They can design some sexy, cute and smaller tattoo design. So it is just a hint or splash of color and design that peeks out. Typically women tend to get much smaller and more intricate tattoo designs then men and therefore an ankle tattoo is the perfect place.

Inexpensive To Get Designs And Tattooed
Typically since ankle tattoos are smaller they will often cost a lot less then other tattoos. They are easy to design and typically even the most ornate ones are very inexpensive to have designed professionally. There is also a lot of flash available for ankle tattoos which can further help the speed and expense of designing such a tattoo. It will typically cost between $50 to $150 to get a custom design done for an ankle tattoo and the overall tattoo might only take a few hours to get done and can often be done in one sitting. Prices will vary depending on the experience of the tattoo artist but should range from $50 to $200.

Alright the reason I bring this up is because my husband and I are toying around with the idea of trying to have a baby in a year or so. So that got me thinking, are there any risks or anything else I should know about regarding tattoos and pregnancy.

First and foremost I have found out that if for some ridiculous reason you want to get a new tattoo while you are pregnant you will more than likely have a hard time finding a tattoo artist that will actually do it. There isn’t really any rules or laws pertaining to pregnant women getting a tattoo but most artist feel it isn’t worth the risk and that you should wait until after the baby is born to get your tattoo.

Also another interesting thing I found out is that there is some kind of myth going around that if you have a back tattoo that you can not get an epidural. There have only been a few studies conducted on this matter and of those studies nothing conclusively found any data that shows that there are risks, so most anesthesiologists have no problem giving an epidural to a woman with a back tattoo. But just in case you are worried about this you should contact your local hospital or doctor and see what they say. I know someone you has a tattoo on her lower back and she had an epidural without any problems so I don’t really see what the fuss is about.

Alright I know I covered this yesterday but since I am on the topic of tattoos and pregnancy

There seems to be a large audience interested in tattoos written in foreign languages. From Celtic to Egyptian, and Japanese to Native American (tribal), the array or writing is almost limitless. In more recent years, the Italian language has taken a step forward into the world of tattoos. Originating in the bigger cities of New York, Chicago, Boston, Miami, and San Francisco, the idea of Italian inspired tattoos has swept the nation. From simpler tattoos such as their National flag or several word sentences, to full back or full sleeve covers, it seems that this is one trend definitely here to stay!

The largest problem with breaking through the language barrier, is making sure the tattoo reads correctly. One mix up in the lettering and your work of art becomes a work of hilarity! Take pesca and pesce. The word pesca means “peace”, which is a word that many people like to add to tattoos. However, the word pesce may look similar, but it means “fish”! How about the word amare meaning “love”, whereas the term amaro means “bitter”! It seems that the most logical way to avoid such catastrophic mistakes would be to do lots and lots of research. After all, when you are “inked”, it is something that needs to be deep, meaningful, and special to you personally. It certainly should, since it is meant to be a permanent fixture on your body!

Italy has an opulent history of one subject – LOVE (AMARE). You have the romantic gondolas that float happy couples up and down the waterways. You have the fantastic paintings upon the Sistine Chapel. Moreover, what is better than that of the cuisine – from Margehrita pizzas in Northern Italy, to the sauces that accompany pasta dishes in Southern Italy? (A bit of cuisine history – red pasta sauces are native to Southern Italy, and white pasta sauces are native to Northern Italy!)

From the famous attitude attributed to rocky Balboa (the Italian Stallion); to Sophia Loren’s famously voluptuous physique, the ambiance and sexiness of the Italian people can also be constructed into Italian designed tattoos. Many of the Italian tattoos originated in the world of gangs and penal facilities. If there were one way to decipher the true loyalty of a gang member, a tattoo would certainly do it! However, the bad-boy-gang-banger-tattoos eventually transcended into the common public, only with a slight twist. No longer utilizing the darker phrases that exemplified a gang member, the Italian language in tattoos began to lean more toward the lovey-dovey side.

Now, words such as “Beauty” (bella), “Love” (amare), “Peace” (pesca), and “Forever” (per sempre), have taken over, alluding to the Italian life of passion and relaxation. The more recent tattoos designed in Italian; tend to lean toward the “_____ Forever”-types. Whether it says Live Forever (In Tensione Per Sempre), or is a single word under a larger tattoo, it seems that the Italian language has not only seeped into American culture, but literally into our skin as well!
