The girls always ask me what they should get a tattoo or what I think is the hottest tattoos for girls. Unfortunately there is no clear cut answer simply because there are as many different types of tattoos are there are girls. What one person might find sexy another might consider unattractive or very feminine. Particular style of tattoo may not suit the image you want to project. For example, a particular work environment can not accept highly visible tattoos even though tattoos are becoming more and more accepted. It might be wise to postpone getting that sacred heart tattoo emblazoned on your chest if your boss would flip if (s) he sees it!. So to say that what I hope to do in this short article offers insight and experience in the tattoo industry for 9 or 10 years and shows the current trend of tattoos and what the most popular styles of tattoos are for girls. At the end of the day you want a tattoo that has lasting appeal and not a tattoo done on a whim. If I gave you some good ideas for the next tattoo all the better ...
Trends come and go. What cool ten years ago is no longer cool. In the nineties certain types of tattoos such as cartoon characters like Betty Boop, barbed wire armbands and dolphins are in. Looking at them now they seem very cheesy and basic. Tattoo art has come such a long way in recent years even. Certain styles of tattooing has become immortal and has risen to the point where they get the respect and recognize their worth to the complexity and artistry. Styles as diverse as Japanese tattoos, Indian / Hindu tattoos, Anime, American design and traditional Floral raising the bar higher and higher and is becoming increasingly popular. Next to it is the fact that people are beginning to see their skin as a human canvas and not just settling for random tattoos scattered about the hidden parts of the body. Nowadays more and more women getting tattoos are bigger and more of them.
This may explain the popularity of Japanese tattoos. In traditional Japanese tattoos each character has a meaning and interact with other tattoo designs as part of the whole. The same goes for Traditional American tattoos. Previously what was done as individual tattoos of different elements of American culture is now being woven into an organic and more as the story progresses.
