However, what is the best one for you and where should you get it? These are questions that only you can answer, however, below you will find some advice in choosing the right feminine tattoo for you and your life situation.

Tattoo Designs

Women today are getting a wide variety of different tattoo designs and what type of tattoo you finally choose is really a matter of personal choice. Of course some women choose big tattoos in visible areas and even things like skull and crossbones. While other women choose smaller more feminine tattoo designs that are often small. One of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas in tattoos are taking old school traditional tattoo designs and redoing them with a ?new school? look and a more delicate and feminine looking. Like a chest piece with hearts and swallows. Again don't let yourself be persuaded to get a tattoo you are not 100% sure about. Always choose a tattoo that speaks to you and remember it is a personal choice. Here are some of the more common themes for feminine tattoos

Flowers

Butterflies

Angels

Hearts

Angel Wings

Placement

Another way to make a tattoo more of a feminine design is where it is placed on the body. For example getting a tattoo done on your hip or on your lower stomach will automatically make it look more feminine and cute. There are many different designs that can really be altered from the traditional looking tattoo by just choosing a different more feminine placement for it. Foot, lower back, wrist, ankle, hip and so on.

Cutesy Versus Feminine

One thing that you will always want to watch out for is the line between cutesy tattoos and feminine tattoos. Where this line is again is a personal choice and nothing here is a hard and fast rule but rather just some ideas to help guide you. When you are selecting a design make sure it is something that has a symbolism or important meaning behind it. This might just be a personal meaning for you but having something behind the tattoo will steer you clear of getting a cutesy one just because you think it is cute now. For example a tattoo of Strawberry Shortcake might not look that feminine or cute in 20 years. However, some beautiful flowers with a script looking writing with them will stand the test of time and look wonderful even in 30 years from now.
