The young people of Generation X are attributed with having started the trend in lower back tattoos in the late 1990's and they have continued to gain in popularity to the current time.
Lower back tattoos are considered sensuous on a woman and an expression of her sexuality. In some countries lower back tattoos label the wearer as promiscuous, while being commonly accepted most other places.
Why choose a lower back tattoo?
---A tattoo positioned on the lower back is designed to follow the curves of the female body and accentuate the curve of the lumbar spine.
---The skin of lower back is unlikely to stretch with minor weight gains or pregnancies and so the tattoo design will not distort out of shape.
---It is a great place to display a tattoo wearing low rise pants and midriff tops while being able to conceal the tattoo when it is less appropriate, like when wearing business clothes.
Any design can be used successfully on this area of the body and women often select something that has a special or personal meaning to them. Tattoo artists are able to develop a design specifically for the individual's shape and curvature that makes a statement about who she is, as a person.
One word of caution - the lower back is considered by many to be one of the most painful areas to have a tattoo. While other women disagree, you would be wise to consider this point carefully before deciding to go ahead with a tattoo on this part of your body.
Design suggestions for a lower back tattoo.
---Flower Back Tattoos. Flowers symbolize beauty and fertility and can be small and fragile or large and bold, depending on your style.
---Spiral Tattoos. A spiral means connecting with the energy in nature and the universe.
---The lower back is a chakra point and designs to balance personal energy are popular.
---Lion Tattoos. Signifies courage and pride in oneself.
---Eagle Tattoos. Symbolizes a desire for freedom and a leap of faith.
