Leg tattoo – is the most thoughtful choice – it’s easy t hide and easy to reveal. Of course, we are not literally talking about the necessity of hiding a tattoo it a situational option. For example, while applying for a new job, as the employer can be rather a conservative person having a bad attitude towards the tattoo art. With a leg tattoo both of you will win: you will have a tattoo and your boss will think of you whatever he wants but the body drawing will not become a reason of bad treatment. Also, this placement is ideal to save, let’s say, your grandma’s nerves not to get her to the hospital with a heart attack after she sees what you’ve done to yourself.
Tattooers usually divide the leg into several zones – a thigh, shin or calf, and foot. All those zones are good for a tattoo and sometimes they are all used in the big artworks.
Besides that, not dwelling the aspect of the family and professional problems, the desire to change your style can appear in your mind sooner or later and the leg tattoo unlike the skull on shoulder would be perfect in this case.
Women leg tattoos.
Women leg tattoos are getting more and more popular lately. There are several leg tattoo ideas for girls you’ve definitely seen: bow-ties on hips, straight lines down the whole legs (imitating stockings) and of course drawings on thighs above the knee. It is possible to argue for a long time whether two first tattoo ideas a good or bad (these leg tattoo ideas are not bad but overused, and it’s great if a good tattooer makes them, in the case of a failure these tattoo ideas looks ridiculous), the last one listed looks attractive and interesting.
However, the drawing should be chosen wisely, as always. If you are asking the tattoo artist to ink you, for example, a wolf’s face, it doesn’t mean that this tattoo will look harmonically on you. The advice is to choose the most abstract leg tattoo ideas or not so overused drawings. The size of each tattoo can vary from the small ones to as big as it’s possible – all will look good. In the second case, they will peep out of the skirt or dress turning on the imagination of surrounding especially men.
The other good choice of placement is a calf tattoo, which started growing its popularity last decade. Such leg tattoo idea has mainly an aesthetic function. You can ink here any rather big and colorful drawings, they will not influence the body shape and look rather saucy.
Leg Tattoos for men.
Men leg tattoos have less of a variety. They mostly are either the drawings on calfs or on thighs and lower hip tattoos. As always men tattoos are bigger and more aggressive. But that doesn’t mean that guys can’t make a colorful leg tattoo. That’s even better as those look fresh and unique.
The advice for men will be as follows – do not make a hieroglyph leg tattoos as it’s always possible to make something more interesting and it’s up to you.
The procedure of making leg tattoo is not so painful. The skin here is thicker than on had or on a body side, so, it’s just unpleasant than painful. However, because of the big surface area making of the leg tattoo will take several sessions and many hours if still sitting or lying. But this is about any placement not on legs, that’s why due to its almost painless and easy-to-hide features, a leg is almost the best place for a first tattoo.
