In general, feminine tattoos are more delicate than the tattoos on their male counterparts. The lines of a feminine tattoo are usually lighter and thinner, but the tattoos themselves are often much more colorful and bold.
At one time, feminine tattoos were usually smaller than tattoos for men, but that is no longer the case. Modern women are much more likely to get a large tat, or place a tattoo in a bold, easily seen location than in the past.
While it may not always hold true, most feminine tattoos now, while no longer small, or hidden, are usually prettier, more joyful or whimsical in nature than male tattoo art.
Because everyone is different, and their tattoo will need to reflect their own desires and personalities no one way to select feminine tattoos is the right way. There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your tattoo, however.
Remember first of all that there is no rush. This is an important decision, one you will have to love for a long, long time. Keep in mind that the things you are “passionate” about today may not be so important to you ten, twenty or more years from now.
Unless you are absolutely certain about your feelings for a particular hobby, affiliation or thing it is much better to go with something that more appropriately reflects you general outlook on life, or aspires to your sense of aesthetics.
Feminine tattoos are uniquely beautiful and there are many to choose from. The basic types of feminine tattoos are:
Naturalistic
These feminine tattoos look exactly like what they set out to portray, whether it is a particular animal, person or place. Common types of naturalistic feminine tattoos are of famous people, or personal pets.
Stylized
A stylized feminine tattoo may combine many aspects of a naturalistic feminine tattoo, but have a more free effect that is influenced by the artist. Other types of stylized feminine tattoos are of an esoteric nature: fairies, dragons, or surreal places. In some cases colors are altered to make what would otherwise be a naturalistic tattoo into a stylized version of the portrait.
Abstract
These feminine tattoos include elaborate designs as well as simple tribal style tattoos such as Celtic knots or Kanji lettering.
