Angel Tattoos - Popular Designs And Where To Get Them

Angel designs can have so many different meanings, and the designs themselves can look stunning because the tattoo artist can use color in the wings to great affect.

Popular Angel Tattoo Designs.

There are many popular angel designs which gives anyone looking for an angel tat a great variety of choice. One of the most popular designs at the moment is a pair of angel wings. They can be any size and located just about anywhere. The most common locations for wings are on the lower back or on the upper back and shoulder area.

Another favorite Angel tat design is of a beautiful woman in a dress with wings, quite often with a glow around her head. The angel could be looking downward in a protective manner, or another common position is sitting on the ground or a rock. Angel tattoos are also a popular way to pay tribute to someone who has passed away. The persons face is incorporated into the design, to keep their memory alive.

The designs can also represent a connection with a loved one, especially if a love heart is included in the body art with the angel.

It is also popular to combine the angel with a myriad of other other designs to come up with something completely new and unique. Common combinations are the angel with a heart, cross, or flowers to name a few. It really is up to you and your imagination.

The Meaning of Angel Tattoos.

The most common meanings of Angel tattoos are spirituality, love and protection. Wings represent freedom and rising above problems. Many tats are of floating angels, there to provide protection to something or someone. It is popular to get a guardian angel design, so that you always have a guardian angel with you. Another common theme is the perennial struggle between good and evil with Archangels in an eternal battle. Angel designs can also just represent a connection with something higher than oneself.

Where to get Angel Tattoos

The key thing to consider when getting an Angel tattoo design (or any design for that matter) is to make sure you are completely happy with it. The best approach is to check out as many designs as you can, to get ideas. It is not recommended to choose a free tattoo off the internet because the majority are low quality, and all are accessible to thousands of people. That means someone else will certainly have the same design as you. There is a better way to get a unique dream tattoo.

Breast Cancer Ribbon Tattoos

Breast cancer ribbon tattoos have become a very popular way to show your support for those who have fought a cancer battle. While there are many different types of ribbons supporting many different causes, the pink ribbon is one that has taken on international significance representing breast cancer awareness.

With one in eight women and men fighting the breast cancer battle this year alone there is a good chance that you will know someone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. As a tattoo enthusiast, I love seeing people who have chosen to honor and support someone with a breast cancer ribbon tattoo.

If you are thinking about getting a breast cancer tattoo for yourself that honors someone who is fighting this particular battle or someone whose has fought this battle and ultimately lost ~ then here are some tattoo tips that you will want to keep in mind.

* Choosing the Right Breast Cancer Ribbon Tattoo Design.

Take your time choosing the perfect breast cancer tattoo. Not only do you want the tattoo to be the right one for you, but you'll want it to properly symbolize your love and support for your friend or loved one. Looking through online designs is a good place to start. Having a stencil in hand of your chosen artwork when you go to your favorite tattoo artist can also save you some time and money.

* Location, Location, Location

Just as in real estate, the location of your tattoo is important, especially with this type of tattoo. Display it in a prominent location. After all... you want the world to see this beautiful work of art that shows your love and support for those with breast cancer.

* If This is Your First Tattoo?

If this is your first tattoo then you must Think... Think... and Re-Think Before You Ink! Take your time choosing a design. Take your time choosing the right placement location.

Don't get a tattoo while under pressure from someone else. Hopefully, you will be living with this tattoo for the rest of your life so choose wisely from the start. You will want to be happy not only today but for all the tomorrows to come.

* Consultation Please!

It is a very good idea to make an appointment for a consultation with the artist. Actually, you should consult with several artists before making a final decision on just which artist will ink your tattoo. Take all your ideas, sketches and stenciled artwork with you to your appointment so together you and the artist can come up with the best custom tattoo design that is just right for you.

Getting a tattoo is somewhat of an intimate experience so you will want to be comfortable with the person who is going to be making art with you.

* Don't Shop for Price Alone!

Tattooing is an art form and great tattoos can be expensive. If you decide to go smaller in order to save money, you may regret it later. Sometimes waiting until you can afford to get the right tattoo will be worth it in the long run. Your tattoo should be unique and special to you so don't scrimp on it.

Deciding to get a breast cancer ribbon tattoo is commendable and offers a special tribute to your loved one or friend. Take your time choosing the best design and the right application location. Only then will it truly show honor and respect for those who fight the breast cancer battle.

I've always wondered what my tat really says....

it supposed to be "wicked clown".

I don't even know what language it is.

Alan and I have figured out where the guy got "wicked clown."

歹 alone can also mean "bad," "evil" or "wicked", and 丑 appears in the word 丑角 (the simplified variant of 醜角) which does mean "clown" or "joker."

But there is no way that 歹丑 means "wicked clown" so we still think the guy is an ass clown.

Alan spotted this photo in BME's Kanji tattoo gallery:

Despite the great calligraphy (calligraphy as in fancy artistic penmanship), there is a huge typo on this person's torso.

Bushido, the way of the warrior in Japanese is written as 武士道, not with 侍 in the middle. 侍 itself means samurai or warrior, but 武侍道 makes no sense in Japanese. Especially considering Bushido is a Japanese concept.

"Bullshitdo", the way of bullshit, would be more fitting.

Sexy Lower Back Tattoos For Girls

In the 1990s, the popularity of lower back tattoos rose. This was also the time half shirts and cropped tops were in style. For this reason, girls realized that it was the perfect opportunity to show off their tattoo as well as producing a curvy and sexy appeal. Up to this date, tattoos on the lower back are still as popular for girls. And they can be great to show off when you're at the beach or by simply wearing low rise jeans.

In order to highlight the body's feminine curves, the tattoos placed in this area usually have an oblong shape. Mostly, these tattoos are of an image which has been surrounded by elongated designs, patterns or lines. The common images which are being placed in the center include the star, butterfly, dolphin, cross, heart, or a dragon. Meanwhile, the designs which are commonly used to surround the center image range from swirly designs, flames, wings, or even vines. Usually, the tattoo is wide in the center and simply tapers off while it extends outward. There are some instances where these back tattoos wrap further to the side or waist of the girl and can produce a beautiful and unique look.

There are also some tattoos which have a round shape. Even if this is an unusual look, it can still produce an attractive look by itself. However, if you would ask which one is sexier, the answer would be the oblong shape. This is because it just simply highlights the shape of the girl's body much better. A tattoo on the lower back area of your body is considered an attractive spot as well as getting inked on your neck. This is simply because they are hidden and only someone special can see them.

There are several reasons why girls get the tattoo inked in this area. For one thing, it can offer a great and flat expanse for the tattoo artist to work with. It is also a perfect spot for the tattoo since it does not change or stretch with the usual bodily changes occurring as we age, pregnancy or weight gain.

Also, flashing this tattoo on the lower back of your body can be sexy because it is often the place that people do not normally see. Lastly, you can get a lower back tattoo and still be able to dress great for the corporate world without anyone having to see it, except if you either show it to them or if you bend over.
