Choosing a place for a tattoo

Choosing a place for a tattoo is a matter of taste. However, the unenlightened man in the street does not know that not all parts of the body will be equally well viewed. Some, on the contrary, spoil the appearance. In this article, you will learn about the features of the different zones.

When planning to apply a tattoo on a specific part of the body, it is necessary to take into account a number of nuances.

• The openness of the drawing is commensurate with the way of life, work (it happens that the demonstration of drawings on the body is impermissible).
• It is important to take into account the degree of distortion when walking, active movements. The tattoo should look beautiful not only at rest.
• The key point is the pain threshold. The most sensitive areas: face, neck, sternum, head, knees, elbows, ankles, groin.
• It is advisable to avoid places where there are moles, scars, and other damage to the skin. Ideal spots - clean skin without blemishes.
• The drawing should be visible as much as possible. Narrow body parts are not suitable for large sketches.
• The procedure is not suitable for allergy sufferers. Regardless of the place, paints or other preparations used in the work may not suit the client.

Few people pay attention to the fact that tattoos do not like sunlight. To maintain the brightness of the picture, you have to constantly use sunscreen. In order not to grieve about a rash choice in the future, it is necessary to take into account the spatial imagination, a sense of perspective.

Not all tattoos can beautify the body.... Some of them can ruin a person's reputation. It is undesirable to print images where the skin has a specific structure. In addition, some areas show the greatest friction with clothing. The maximum deformation angles are also an obstacle.

A tattoo on the stomach looks impressive only for men who monitor their physical form. However, for women, this is a bad choice. Even a high-quality drawing will lose its aesthetics during weight gain, pregnancy. This zone is only suitable for slim people. She is especially sensitive and mobile. You cannot beat the drawing on the stomach: it will stretch, wrinkle and sag faster than other parts of the body.

Getting a tattoo on these areas is like a time bomb.... it dangerous for health. Women with a tattoo on their lower back should not have epidural anesthesia, as there is a risk of complications. The padding on the buttocks and inner thighs can damage the immune system.

Do not tattoo the inside and outside of your fingers. This is not only ugly but also impractical. The tightness of the skin and the mobility of the fingers interfere with the good result. As a result, the dyes will quickly dissolve, the application will be either too deep or incomplete.

Don't choose for padding your feet and ankles. In these parts of the body, the skin is the tightest. The main reason is friction and constant wearing of shoes. Because of this, after a while the paint will start to blur.

It may seem to some that this zone is successful. However, it is especially mobile, constantly shrinking and expanding. The picture in this area will never look aesthetically pleasing. The place is considered tasteless, painful.

Despite the apparent beauty and originality, the palms and the back of the hands are the worst places. A drawing printed in color or monochrome will very quickly turn into a blur. The skin will be constantly renewed, the issue of correction will become relevant soon.

This decision is considered one of the most unfortunate and dangerous.... Tongue, palate, gums, mucous membrane of the lower lip are not the best "canvases" for tattoos. They do not look beautiful either immediately or after a while. On the contrary, they make the image repulsive, tasteless.

Any part of the body on which the skin is constantly stretched and straightened is not suitable for a tattoo.... In addition to the armpits, elbow, wrist, knee folds, knuckles of the fist are unsuitable for stuffing. The skin in these places is more prone to inflammation, it heals slowly.

Connoisseurs of miniature tattoos believe that the placement of the pattern on the inner surface of the ear will add creativity and uniqueness to the image. However, few people think that ink in these areas fades faster. If you don't want to constantly make corrections, you should look for a more practical place.

Lettering needs a special place for maximum impact and aesthetics. They should be clearly visible, not distorted, readable and harmonious. The main principle is the vastness of the selected area, which will not be distorted when moving or walking. Otherwise, it is impossible to get a high-quality and aesthetic tattoo. You can get a tattoo on the forearm, collarbone, and under the breast.

Some clients of tattoo parlors ask to print images where they will not be too noticeable. If work does not allow, or there are other reasons, it is worth considering one of the following options: back, shoulder, thigh, groin, nape (for people with long hair).

The hidden patterns in these zones are different for women and men. In addition to these closed places, women's tattoos are stuffed on the upper leg, pubis, side of the body, buttock. Men prefer to print images on other invisible areas (on the leg, ribs, flat stomach, side).

Decorations in the form of small drawings, memorable and motivating inscriptions can be placed in open and spicy areas. According to feng shui, placement can be sacred... Many tattoo parlor clients get beautiful tattoos on their collarbones. In these zones, plant, floral motifs, birds, inscriptions look good. However, the area is considered one of the most painful.

Some people prefer to have images on the wrist or behind the ear. There are no nerve endings in this area, so the session will not be too painful. However, the closer the sketch is to the palm of your hand, the faster it will erase. Small drawings can decorate the costal zone on a woman's body. Brutal men adorn the sternum and part of the body under the breast with certain symbols.

For original drawings of a large volume, different places are chosen. If necessary, they can be hidden under clothing. One of the best anatomically advantageous areas is the shoulder. On it you can fill a drawing of any subject and degree of complexity. In this case, the image can cover the clavicle, scapula, neck, forearm. However, a tattoo on the shoulder is not suitable for those who constantly wear a backpack. Friction will cause the sketch to lose clarity and brightness. For men, accents on the biceps are considered the best way to complete the look.

The back is the best canvas for art and costume images. Any tattoos look great on it, be it sketches on the spine, in the upper back, with the transition to the sides, hips, arms, sternum. In rare cases, the tattoo covers the buttocks and legs. No less spectacular arrangement - on the shoulder blades. The skin ages more slowly here. Therefore, the applied drawing will not undergo visual deformation. Individuals fill large images in sleeve technique... It happens that the pattern covers the shoulder, forearm, shoulder blade and sternum. At the same time, the nipples are not touched.

Those who want to get a tattoo for the first time should choose the least painful places. Not too much pain is felt on the hip, shoulder, arm. It is worth considering that pain relievers are not always used; for better penetration of paint under the skin, you will have to endure pain. Much depends on the anatomical features of the person. If he is prone to gaining weight and losing weight, the neck, forearm, and lower leg are ideal places to apply. They don't deform too much.

If you doubt the choice of a place, you can trust a specialist. Modern tattoo artists with long experience of work know not only color rendition, but also anatomy. A professional will suggest the perfect and right place for your first tattoo. The choice of the place of application will depend on the sketch itself and its stylistic idea.

A drawing without a specific meaning can be applied to the lower back. For women, you can decorate the body in the thigh area. At the same time, a small area is enough for the first tattoo. The upper back with a complex relief requires special skill of the tattoo artist. Uncomplicated tattoos to make work easier - design with an axis running along a ridge. Breasts are the choice of physically developed men. They should also decorate the body in the area of ​​the shoulder and forearm. The best styles are tribal, biomechanics, organic. The best options are monochrome Celtic ornaments and tattoos with an interweaving of torn flesh and mechanical, natural elements.

Choosing the best place for an iconic image, you need to soberly evaluate the result. The drawing will never look brutal and mega-cool on a full or dystrophic body without muscular relief. The tattoo only emphasizes the beauty of the body, it does not change the physical form. A small picture can be applied to the back of the neck. This is the best choice of place for light expressive drawings, including symmetrical ones.

The face and top of the head are not the best places for beginners.... If you want to get a tattoo on your head without fail, it is better to choose a zone near the temple or on the shaved back of the head. Girls should not choose the chest area for their first tattoo. As you age, your breasts will change shape. The drawing on it will look sloppy.

From a technical point of view, a simple part of the body is scapula... It is suitable for those who have decided to get a tattoo for the first time. The drawing can be laconic (floral with a stem-lettering), geometric, miniature, realistic. Choosing a specific location option, you need to build on the priority technique.

Watercolor painting can be medium-sized or small. Suitable for her shoulder, shoulder blade, arm, leg, side. Biomechanical, steampunk and organic tattoos look best on the arm that encompasses the sternum or shoulder blade. These are great areas for conveying drawings in motion.

Minimalist pictures look better on the neck and arm. Stylized patterns and ornaments - on the upper arm (outer and inner), male chest and back. The dotwork looks good on the arm and shoulder blade. The graphics are appropriate on the shoulder, forearm, arm to the elbow, back. Sketch style images look organic on a muscular male arm and upper leg.
