Back tattoos for girls. Photos, sketches, inscriptions with translation, wings

Among tattoo artists, there is an opinion that a girl's back is considered the ideal canvas for creating large-scale tattoos. Back sketches can be found in numerous photos on social networks, as tattoos are becoming more and more a way to decorate and express yourself every year.

Choosing a place for a tattoo on the back

Tattoos for girls, presented in the photo of tattoo masters, show that, depending on the size of the sketch, the location of the picture can change.

Small tattoos are best placed on the neck or between the shoulder blades, and a large pattern will look good along the spine or in the lumbar region. An experienced craftsman can not only create a sketch and transfer it to the skin, but also suggest the best location on the back.

The total area of ​​the back allows fantasies to unfold in the matter of choosing a sketch. Smooth and elastic back surface allows any pattern to look perfect. The muscles of the back remain in good shape for a long time without additional efforts, which allows you to maintain a presentable look of the tattoo for a longer period. In addition, it is also more convenient for tattoo artists to work on the surface of the back.

The back is for the most part considered the least sensitive part of the body to pain. The areas in which there is a small fat layer are most susceptible to pain. In these areas, the needle of the tattoo machine is close to the nerve endings and the process of tattooing is hard to endure.

For this reason, it is recommended to do the first tattoo of a small size and in the area that is less susceptible to pain. It is believed that the least pain is felt in the neck, shoulders and muscles along the spine. Painful sensations on the ribs and shoulder blades are tolerated. The most sensitive area is the spine.

There are nuances associated with applying a tattoo on the back:

• At first, the tattoo must be processed. It will be difficult to do it yourself if you choose your back as the object of tattooing. It is also recommended not to lie on your back at first (especially during sleep), wear loose-fitting clothing and change it as often as possible.
• Tattoos in the lower back and waist can be very deformed if the girl is prone to rapid weight changes. Changes to the pattern after delivery are possible. To avoid a damaged tattoo, it is best to opt for the upper back.
• Despite the fact that there is a general gradation of zones of the back according to pain sensations, the body of each person is individual.The pain threshold may differ and the process of tattooing even in the softest zone can be painful.
