How to choose the right placement?
The choice of design matters, but the placement is also crucial. Here are our favorite areas by tattoo size:
For small minimalist designs:
Inner wrist, finger, nape of the neck, behind the ear, collarbone, ankle. These areas highlight delicacy without overdoing it.
For medium-sized designs:
Forearm, calf, shoulder, side, shoulder blade. These placements offer enough surface for details without overwhelming the body.
For large pieces:
Thigh, back, biceps, chest. These areas allow for complex compositions with a spectacular visual effect.
What style for what occasion?
Wedding / Bachelorette Party
Opt for floral, romantic, and minimalist designs: fineline roses, love quotes, couple's initials. Read our complete wedding and bachelorette party tattoo guide.
Summer Festival
Choose visible and symbolic designs: mandalas, colorful flowers, spiritual symbols, totem animals. This is an opportunity to dare a sleeve or a large format.
Beach Vacation
Marine motifs, waves, suns, and seashells are perfect. Be careful, however, of rapid wear and tear with frequent swimming.
Professional Daily Life
Stick to discreet minimalist designs: inner wrist, ankle, behind the ear. You can express your personality without disturbing a formal setting.
Our final advice
The best tattoo is one that reflects you. Before getting a real permanent tattoo, try out 3 or 4 different designs for two weeks each, in different placements. You'll quickly know what really suits you — and what definitely doesn't.
All these ideas await you in our collections: small sizes, medium size, large pieces. Create your pack and enjoy discounts on multiple tattoos.
