A good feminine tattoo design will accentuate your body. More and more women are getting tattoos now, so there are many styles to choose from.

The most popular styles I've found are:

  • Fairy
  • Butterfly
  • Birds
  • Tribal
  • Flowers

On average, the female form is smaller than the male's. If your body is smaller consider getting a design that will scale down. Tribal and floral designs work well for that purpose. A bird or dolphin could work, but if they get too small you won't be able to see enough detail.

Some women prefer smaller tattoos because they feel more feminine, are less painful to get inked, and work well with singular or smaller designs. If this is your first tatto, or want to be more discreet, consider going smaller. My first tatto was a smaller rose. I've gone bigger since then, but for starting out it was great!

Where Should My Tattoo Go?

Some women are concerned about social acceptability of an always visible tattoo. Women's clothes usually show more skin than guys, so take that into account for placement.

Lower Back - This is a popular place for a reason. Many women get a tribal design here because it really goes with your existing curves, and can easily be covered or exposed.

Around the Ankle - Some women get a tattoo of an anklet. Guys rarely get anything tattooed here, so automatically your tattoo becomes much more feminine.

An ankle tattoo also draws the eyes upwards to your legs and fugure.

On the Shoulder Blade - This is a popular place to get a tattoo for both sexes because your shoulder blade offers an un-disturbed canvas for larger designs.If you're looking to get a finely detailed feminine tattoo, this is the place.

What Will People Think?

A lady with a tattoo is not a big deal anymore. Plenty of professional and successful women get tattooed - in fact over 60% of American women will get a tattoo in their life!

Also, 43% of tattooed women believe they look sexier. This attitude will carry over to how you act. That's the biggest factor in getting a positive reaction from people.

If you're very concerned with what people will think, remember that a good feminine tattoo design will make you feel more attractive. Just go with it - it will work.
