You might want to get a sexy tattoo on the back of your neck, girls, but there are things to consider when deciding on a tattoo in a highly visible and sensitive area like the back of your neck. Besides the pain of getting a tattoo so close to your spine and skull, back of the neck tattoos are either difficult or impossible to cover up depending on their location.

Tattoos on the back of the neck aren’t as popular as tattoos somewhere else on the body like the belly button, lower back, or even shoulder, but the neck tattoo has its own dedicated fan base due to its originality.

One of the sexiest areas to get a tattoo is on the back of the neck, since the nape carries a special place as one of the most seductive areas of the body that most people are unaware of. The majority of guys are attracted to the back of the neck and nape area in a way they can’t really explain and a tattoo on the lower area of the neck, behind the ear, or right under your hair line intensifies that.

Neck tattoos in general are a type of tattoo that catches a lot of bad attention from others, though tattoos on the back of the neck of girls aren’t so unacceptable in the eyes of most. On the side of the neck, or somehow the front of the neck, are seen as a bit of a taboo and not a lot of people want to commit themselves to a tattoo like that for the rest of their lives.

The choices of designs for the back of the neck are about as varied as anywhere else, as the majority of back of the neck tattoos for girls are just small versions of tattoos designed for another area of the body. However, butterflies, stars, dragonflies, and zodiac symbols are all very popular in the case of back of the neck tattoos. Zodiac symbols are even seen as a little classy when on the back of the neck, and they look beautiful.

Keep in mind that any tattoo is permanent and will be on your body for the rest of your life. Back of the neck tattoos are especially hard to cover up because of their location and if you end up working in a formal setting then putting up your hair or cutting it short is nearly impossible to do. Most workplaces do now allow visible tattoos, no matter how well done or pretty they are. What’s more is if you get a tattoo near the back of your ears there is almost no way to cover it up. Take careful consideration before committing your body to a back of the neck tattoo. They may look great, but every rose has its thorn.

The scorpion tattoo design is probably one of the most attractive tattoos inked today. They are usually quite intricate and have a somewhat sinister meaning behind them. The problem with using a scorpion as the subject of your tattoo design is that it requires more thought and planning than many other designs. The reason for this is due to the extreme complexity in their body structure.

The reason people choose the scorpion as a subject for tattoo design is the somewhat frightening image it portrays. This is due to their association with deadly stings and the use of them in many scary movies. There is a real reason to fear scorpions. Scorpions are related to the arachnid family (spiders) and as such are sometimes deadly. In addition to this they have many moving parts. The way they move and articulate seems somewhat unnatural to us and we see this as frightening.

These qualities are also what make this particular tattoo design difficult to render in tattoo ink. To make a scorpion tattoo design look natural and realistic one needs to look at artwork with the following qualities.

1) Make sure that the artwork you are considering has plenty of detail. Scorpion tattoos should have all the leg joints and the segments in the tail accurately reproduced. The pincers (claws) should show realistic crablike appearance.

2) A scorpion can be of almost any color so when reproducing the design as a tattoo just make sure that bright colors are used. Use plenty of stripes or patterns in the design to replicate the actual camouflage markings.

3) Consider the size of your design. Obviously, the smaller the artwork, the less detail you can incorporate into the design. Choose a large area on the body and make good use of it. This is one of the pieces of artwork that must be placed on a large part of the body like a shoulder blade or the back.

I hope these tips are useful in guiding you to a decision. Always remember that any tattoo is an expression of yourself and should portray the meaning you want it to.
