Girly Tattoo Designs

Girly Tattoo Designs

Many young females are getting tattoos nowadays, so the presence of girly tattoo designs is quickly increasing. It used to be believed that tattoos were for guys, as a sign of masculinity, and that any tattoo girl was rebellious or bad behaving, but now it's become a trend to get inked young no matter your gender. Studies have proven that almost 10% of women ages 18-25 have at least one tattoo. For this reason, the need for girly tattoos is rising fast.

Girly tattoo designs are fairly small in size, and can be grouped into categories based on their femininity. Popular groupings include flowers, hearts, cherries, animals, and stars. Of course, some of these categories also include masculine tattoos, but the difference is widely recognizable. Pink is general color in many female designs...something you wouldn't typically see in a man's design.

The location for a girl tattoo is typically on the small of the back, so many designs are sketched with this location in mind. They usually consist of a unique design of swirls and loops, and may include an image from some of the girly categories listed above. A butterfly, for example, is a common piece for the lower back. There has been a lot of controversy regarding this tattoo location, and some people know the tattoos located there as "tramp stamps." However, this is not a general consensus, nor is it stopping young women for getting tattoos here.

Many females opt for girly tattoo designs, particularly for their first tattoo. This is because they are generally smaller than the more extreme images, so this can act as a trial run to experience the whole "getting a tattoo" scenario. Many of them can be used to express yourself, and look very good with lettering. If you wanted to add your name around stars or hearts, it can be done and look great.
