The world and especially the world of tattoos has changed drastically over the last decade or two. It was not too long ago that only certain types of women would get tattoos and the ones that did typically hide them from the public view. However today many women are getting tattoos. Social norms have changes and tattoos are not much more widely accepted. This has created a huge growth in the field of women's tattoos. Many women find this very exciting and liberating and those at the forefront are women getting rather large very visible tattoos. Yet many women are also getting smaller sized tattoos that are less visible or only partially visible. With the rapid growth of female tattoos there are many new designs. There are many more options today for cute, small feminine tattoo designs then ever before. Here is some advice on helping you choose which tattoo is right for you.

Tattoo Ideas

Really women today are getting a ton of different types of tattoos and what you get is a matter of personal choice. There are many women that have chosen to get big bold tattoo designs that would typically be considered male tattoo designs like skulls or anchors. Yet there are just as many women out there that are getting smaller more traditionally feminine looking tattoos. One of the most exciting areas of tattoo design these days are when top tattoo artists take an old school tattoo and more typically a male themed tattoo design and change it to be more delicate and feminine looking. Again tattoos are a personal choice it is all about you and what you want. Don't let yourself be persuaded to get a tattoo you are not 100% sure about. Here are some of the more common themes or tattoo designs that are classically feminine in nature and ones that women are frequently getting.

Flowers

Butterflies

Angels

Angel Wings

Hearts

Location

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.
