About Lower Back Tattoos
The lower back has emerged to become one of the most popular tattoo locations! The lower back provides a large surface area and lower waistlines have created a prime location for adornment and self-expression.
The lower back is a sexy place for a tattoo on either men or women! A tattoo in this area acts like a belt, delineating the back from the buttocks. A composition that dips into a “V” shape will inevitably draw the eye (or the mind) down to the lower elements! A composition can also draw the eye up and accentuate a well-defined back!
A tattoo on the lower back can be a dramatic statement or an understated invitation! Smaller designs can rest right at the base of the spine. Larger arrangements have the opportunity to spread in all directions—a piece can wrap around the sides and meet in the front, if you prefer.
Although a lower back tattoo tends to be wide and symmetrical, a depiction beginning here can climb up the back like a vine. It could spread up one side and down one buttock. There’s also a stunning opportunity to begin an image at the lower back and extend it asymmetrically up one side.
Obviously, any subject matter can be placed on the lower back, but the area lends itself particularly to wide or sprawling designs. Butterflies, dolphins, angels, wings, and fairies are balanced compositions. Clusters of flowers such as hibiscus or cherry blossoms can intertwine with vines and travel in any direction.
Tribal and Celtic lower back tattoo designs are often used in this area—either as abstractions or using these styles to interpret an image. Tigers, dragons, and crosses are all excellent choices for lower back tattoos.
