Where to Place a Flower Tattoo

One of the biggest decisions for a person desiring a tattoo is where on the body to place their artwork. Some tattoos are of a certain shape or size that they will not fit everywhere. However, flower tattoos are extremely versatile. They can be customized to fit any spot a person wants, but there are some locations where flower body art simply works best.

Where you place your flower tattoo depends upon the design you choose to get. Small, subtle, feminine flowers look best when placed on the ankle. However, for a sexier location you may want to place your artwork on your pelvic bone. Like your ankle, this region can be hidden when necessary. However, it is also easily revealed when wearing an attractive bathing suit or pair of low-rise pants. Another sexy location for a beautiful flower is on your upper breast. Again, this can be selectively revealed by wearing a low-cut top and helps attract attention to some of your most boastful features.

Larger tattoos are generally unsuited for your ankle, pelvic region, or chest. If you want a large flowered design, you will need to give the tattoo artist some space to work. So, it is best to place big tattoos on your back, shoulder, legs, or arms. These last two options provide space that is long rather than wide. Therefore, legs and arms are ideal for strings of flowers or a vine-like design. You can also use legs and arms as horizontal space by getting a band. The most common variation on this is the tribal armband around a person’s bicep.

A tattoo’s location can also affect how much pain you feel and how long your tattoo stays perfect. For example, many people report that tattoos placed on or very near to bones hurt the most. Also, normally tender locations can experience more severe discomfort. For example, people report more pain near the Achilles tendon on the ankle or behind the knee than in other spots. Also, some locations are prone to stretching. If your skin stretches, your tattoo may become distorted. This is important to consider if you want a tattoo on your stomach, upper arm, breast, or thigh.

Ultimately, the decision of where to place your flower tattoo is yours to make along with guidance from your tattoo artist. Before you decide, make sure you consider the long-term effects of your decision. Ask yourself how visible you want your tattoo to be, how likely you are to experience weight gain or loss, and how much pain you are willing to endure. Finally, make sure your location fits your design and ask your artist to draw or place a temporary tattoo of your design on the spot you choose. This will help you ensure you have picked the perfect location for your flower body art.
