Tattoos for girls

Tattoos for girls have become quite popular during the last years. More and more female celebrities wearing their tattoos openly may have helped to lift the social blockade for girls with tattoos.

Nevertheless getting a tattoo is a decision which has to be made carefully, especially for a girl or a young woman. A tattoo will stick with you forever or at least very many years and getting it removed still is complicated and painful.

Everything starts with deciding where on the body the tattoo should go. A very common place for girls to get their first tattoo is the lower back but shoulder blade, bum or arms are also quite popular. Take into consideration that you will not stay young forever and that your skin will change with age and so might your tattoo. Before really getting into it, you might want to start with a place on your body that is easy to hide - just in case. Not every boss or customer is open minded and liberal and might be offended by your tattoos.

At the moment Butterflies, Flowers, Dolphins, Stars and Fairies are quite popular tattoos for girls. It is wise not to only go with the fashion, but to pick a tattoo design which you will be comfortable with for a long period of time - even after the fashion dictates something else. Be especially careful when it comes to the name of your lover. He might be gone one day but the tattoo will stay with you and your next boyfriend might not want to look at it all the time. Better stick to symbols or pictures.

Tattoos for girls may be popular but we still do not really know much about how it is going to be done, if it hurts, what kind of colours wil be used, how the skin may react to it and so on. It will defenitely be too late to think about all those questions when you are sitting in a tattoo studio and somebody is already working on your body. So the best thing to do is to gather as much information as you can before you take the final step. Ask other girls how they got their tattoos, how they chose the design, etc. They may be able to recommend a tattoo studio as well. Go to different tattoo studios, ask all the questions you may have, let them show you example tattoos they did. If they do not want to take the time to talk to you and answer all your questions, this is defenitely not the right place for you.

And please: If you are not 18 yet, you need the permission of your parents. A good tattoo studio will act responsible and ask for your id and/or your parents’ permission anyway.
