A very popular tattoo is the inner wrist tattoo design. Today you see more tattoos than ever before. Whereas tattoos were once worn mostly by men, this is no longer the case. Tattoo artists and studios have as many women customers as men, since tattoos are almost considered a fashion statement for women in all social standings. Some tattoos go all the way around the wrist giving the appearance of a bracelet. Most of the wristband or bracelet style tattoos will encircle the entire wrist and meet in the center.
Because the tattoo on the top of the wrist is much more visible, many women choose the inner wrist tattoo design. If they want them visible, all they have to do is turn their arm. The sizes of these inner wrist tattoos can vary from small to large depending on personal preference. In fact, it is their ability to be less visible that makes them the most popular of tattoos. Many of the inner wrist tattoos get their inspiration from the album, Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magik by the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
A popular inner wrist tattoo design is a star. They are often similar to a nautical star which has 4 pointed stars each pointing a different direction and one half of the points being one color and the other half a different color. If you go to a tattoo studio and ask for an inner wrist nautical star, they’ll instantly know what you want. Another widely used inner wrist tattoo is with a star and the word ‘virgin’. This particular tattoo is worn by Nicole Ritchie.
Although inner wrist tattoos are more frequently seen on women, men also have them on their wrist with a tribal wrist tattoo being very popular. These inner wrist tattoos can be found in most tattoo parlors or tattoo art books. Many men customize them in a style they like, which may be slightly different than what they see in the book. Many movie stars and famous people have wrist tattoos, particularly inner wrist tattoos. This may play a large part in why they are so popular.
Although the wrist is a tender spot of the body with thin skin, inner wrist tattoos don’t seem to hurt that much according to most recipients that have had them done. The only disadvantage is because it is an exposed area of the body; they often take longer to heal than other tattoos. An advantage of the simple wrist band type of tattoo is that it can be covered with a wrist watch if you need it covered for work or some other reason.
You’ll find many designs for tattoos for the inner wrist in tattoo parlors or tattoo art books because of their popularity and being such a frequent selection.
