Lower Back Tattoos
Lower back tattoos have become incredibly popular with girls in recent years, but are generally not considered as an option for guys. Some men have body art on their lower back, but it is often an extension of a much larger back design, rather than solely a lower back tattoo. For girls, lower back tattoos are considered sexy, elegant, and feminine. For this reason the lower back has become probably the most popular body area for tattooing among females, especially with younger girls in their 20’s. Lower back tattoos are generally sited in the centre of the back just above the bum. Lower back tattoos generally consist of small, subtle designs that draw attention to the natural curvature of a woman’s body. There is the potential to ink a larger design, perhaps extending higher up the back or farther out to either side, however such extensions are rarely chosen and lower back tattoos are almost always small designs located in the centre of the lower back.
Lower back tattoos have the advantage of being very easy to cover up when required. Wearing a top that reaches down to the waist, or tucking your top in, will completely cover up any lower back tattoo. This is an important consideration for people whose employers don’t allow the displaying of tattoos in the workplace. Away from formal settings, girls can display their lower back tattoos by wearing short length tops and shirts, or bikini tops.

Getting inked can be fairly painful, and the characteristics of the lower back make it a reasonably painful area to ink. That said, the small size of the vast majority of lower back tattoos means that the associated pain will not have to be endured for very long. As well as being quicker to ink, smaller tattoos are often relatively inexpensive, although the complexity of the design, the colours used, and the reputation of your tattoo artist will also determine the final cost of getting a lower back tattoo.
While any small designs can potentially make beautiful lower back tattoos, some of the most popular designs include tribal, flower, butterfly, bird, star, dolphin, fairy, celtic, fish, and heart designs. Inking names and slogans on the lower back is also fairly popular. Text can be inked in English in an attractive style, or can be translated and inked in a foreign script. Asian scripts make especially attractive tattoos. It is important to consider the shape of the lower back when selecting a design, although often it is possible to make almost any design appropriate by adjusting its dimensions.
If you are looking for further design inspiration for your lower back tattoo, I suggest that you browse through the Tattoo Designs area of this website. I also highly recommend joining one or more premium online tattoo design galleries. Two great online tattoo galleries are the Chopper Tattoo and Tattoo Me Now tattoo galleries. Both of these tattoo design galleries contain thousands of premium tattoo designs that can be printed out and taken to your tattoo artist for a consultation. Joining a premium tattoo gallery, such as the two mentioned above, will be highly beneficial, saving you hours of searching through low quality free designs, and providing you with only the highest quality body art available. Far too many people settle for a poor quality tattoo design after wasting hours upon hours of trawling the internet looking only at free designs. Needless to say, such decisions are usually regretted a couple of years later, often resulting in expensive laser tattoo removal. I advise you to avoid making this mistake by only considering premium quality tattoo designs, taking your time to decide which design is right for you, and talking to your tattoo artist. Tattoos are lifelong commitments, so it really is worth spending a few extra dollars to get access to a huge variety of premium quality tattoo designs.
