Original Question

Manly tattoo ideas for the hip and etc?

Q. What i look for in getting a tattoo is base on 3 things. style, color, and place.
Style is scrollwork the stuff you see on engraved guns. Color not sure. But place need help
i was thinking hip or hip to hip and on the lower back plus trapezius. I heard women get it on the hips but i am not gay and don't want to give of a gay vibe. I want to know is that a good idea. i want to make it look cool and manly like. I am somewhat muscular and don't want to cover and muscle.
Any opinions or ideas. I don't have a tattoo and don't want to mess up on my first.
i am keeping scrollwork ideas cause its different and make i look similar to tribal though.
i was also thinking shoulders, calve and maybe chest
Plus any tattoo artist who look at this please comment and leave your ideas.

A. Because women have been getting 'tramp stamps' on their lower back, and hips, by social standards tattoos in those places are seen as feminine. That's not to say your design would be seen that way should you get it done in either of those places - but if you really want to avoid that social stigma, my advice would be to try between shoulder blades, pectorals, or on your thigh.

No matter where you put the tattoo, it will be over muscle, so your comment of "don't want to cover any muscle" is pointless. If you're wanting something masculine, putting a tattoo on well defined muscle is probably a good idea.

If you're not sure, even after getting answers on here, do some research on tattoo artist in your area. Find some experienced artists in reputable studios, and actually go in with your design idea and ask them - it is their job to be able to tell someone where tattoos would work or not work, and physically seeing the design and your body shape will be better for you.

Good luck. :)

What part of the body is the most intimate part for a guy to get a tattoo?

Q. I'm looking to get a tattoo that will drive a woman mad and turn her on when I take off my clothes and she sees a tattoo. What part of the body will accomplish that?

Obviously, for women, tattoos on their legs, feet, hip, lower back, stomach, pubic area, or buttocks are all great intimate places. But what about guys?

A. Pubic area, sides,...neck?
Eh. Those are head turners for me, I guess.

Post pregnancy pictures for women who had stomach tattoos?

Q. I have been looking all over for a website that shows pictures of women who have tattoos on their belly, abdomen, upper hip etc. I want to see how many women have had their tattoos deformed or they're fine. I have a really meaningful tattoo that I don't want messed up, but that's not gonna stop me from having a child. I'm just wondering.

A. everyone is different, some people can go through pregnancy without hurting their tattoos... others end up with stretch marks ruining the image.

You won't know how you'll turn out until it happens.

How painful is a tattoo on your forehead?

Q. Don't give me a speech or preach about tattoo on my forehead I want it a little above the between of my eyes a simple stick cross. How painful would this be?

A. I answer these questions related to pain in the same way every time.

The pain in different places differs from person to person, pain threshold does have a lot of input but, for example, my chest tattoo didn't hurt at all, where as some people I know said their chest tattoo hurt a lot!

Anyway, here's a basic pain level chart I always reffer people to.

Pain level 1
These include the upper arm, forearm, calf, Bum, and Thigh. For a 1st tattoo these are great points to begin your inked journey.

Pain level 2
These include the centre back, front / side of thighs and shoulders. This is also not too bad a start for your first tattoo. The shoulders and central back region can be area that require quite a lot of movement. The skin on these areas is much looser meaning it takes longer to tattoo and also longer to heal. On areas that have lots of movement such as these, require more care once a tattoo is completed. Due to the thigh area being quite a dense muscle mass and also quite tight skin, it may tend to bruise the day after.

Pain level 3
These include the knees, elbows, hands, head, neck, feet, chest and back of thighs. Beginners beware of starting at these areas. You would need to be determined to have tattoos here as the high sensitivity would require a lot of mental focus to get you through. The poor quality of skin on both the knees and elbows will result in a very slow tattoo process and nerves are very close to the surface in these areas. This could result in the tattooing being unbearable for any length of time for some people. As with the orange areas these tend to be high movement areas and will require a longer healing timescale. You may find that to achieve a good solid colour, you may have to repeat the tattoo process on these areas. As a side note the chest area on men can be much more sensitive to pain than a woman, yet due to the tighter skin on a male, the tattoo can be completed quicker.

Pain level 4 (OWCHIE!)
Areas include hips, ribcage, stomach, back of knees, armpit, inside of elbow, nipples, lips, inside of thighs and genitals. Are you really sure you want to get that tattoo? As these areas can elicit crying, half finished tattoos or even the customer passing out. This could just be more than you may be able to handle. All of these purple areas are considered by most to be the most painful areas to be tattooed. The stretchy or thin skin over bone are slow to tattoo, some of these may require multiple sessions to achieve solid colour and smooth shading. Healing can be just as painful as receiving the tattoo and may require a few days off from your regular activities.

SOME USEFUL TIPS WHEN GETTING A TATTOO:

�Women are your more sensitive the week prior to and during your cycle. Plan around those dates to have the best experience possible when getting your tattoo.
�Use lotion everyday on the area to be tattooed at least 1 week prior for healthier skin and better results.
�Do not go out in the sun at least one week prior to being tattooed (including tanning beds) This drys the skin and if peeling occurs could damage the tattoo.
�Consider what you will wear for 2 weeks while healing if your tattoo is in an area like the foot, waist, shoulders or chest. Shoes, waistbands, belts, underwear, and bras can all damage tattoos if you do not plan ahead. Find comfortable clothing that will not touch or rub during this time.
�Always eat a good meal before being tattooed and drink plenty of fluids.
�Be sure to get a good nights rest before your appointment.
�Ask what kind of aftercare products you will need when you set up to get your tattoo.
�Mention any allergies you may have, pigments, dyes, perfumes.
�Some medication may thin your blood, check with your doctor before being tattooed.
�Anyone with an autoimmune disorder needs to check with their doctor and should bring a note to be tattooed.

How big of a chance is there that my tattoo will stretch from being pregnant?

Q. I have a real cute unicorn tattoo on my right hip, close to my pubic region... a little lower than women usually get theirs. I'm trying to have a baby with my husband and was wondering if it will really stretch out like my friend say it will. If so, will it go back after loosing the weight or no???

A. That is where I have a little devil and when I got pregnant his head would get huge, it was funny. It happened during all three pregnancies and it always went back to normal. Just apply alot of lotion to keep your skin soft and supple, that way not alot of stretch marks .I went back to prepregnancy weight after all three. I gained 40lbs with the first, went from 110 to 150, gained 50 with my second, went from 100 to 150 and with my third went from 115(gained 15lbs after I quit smoking to get pregnant) and went to 140. Now , I am at 115 again and he still looks the same. So good luck to you on everything. Hope you get pregnant soon.

How bad will a hip tattoo look after pregnacy?

Q. Ive been wanting to get a medium size tattoo of my moms name with disigns and im planning to have kids but not yet, is the tattoo going to look ugly after a pregnacy? Or will it back to normal?

A. Hip? I think it'd be fine. Just don't get it in your belly and don't use pregnancy as an excuse to heavily overeat lol. You should get plenty of nutrition but some women go overboard and get really really fat.
