Rib tattoos are becoming the new sexy and hot trend as more and more tat enthusiasts are opting for this type of theme for their body ink. According to several tattoo artists, there are more women going for tattoos on their rib cage than men. It seems as if the female population has a higher threshold to pain when it comes to tattooing.Rib tattoos are preferred by women for a lot of reasons. For one, the rib cage is a great canvas for the tattoo artist to work on. It is a large body art that can accommodate detailed and intricate art. Designs executed on this area can highlight the natural curvatures of their body. Also, rib tattoos are not as rampant and common as other tat theme like the lower back tattoos. It is still considered unique and special as not everyone has the courage to have it done. Considering that the area is bony and there are not a lot of tissues to cushion the skin during the tattooing process, pain is definitely on a higher scale.
The designs that can be seen for rib tattoos are flowers such as cherry blossoms, lilies, rose, lotus and hibiscus. Text or lettering on the rib cage are getting a lot of popularity too with quotations, lines from a song and poem and verses from the bible can be seen inked in various styles of fonts. Of course, the all time favorite tattoo imagery like the butterflies and stars are still very much in the trend because of their being very versatile and adaptable as ink designs.
With tattoos being in the mainstream nowadays, one has to think of ways to be edgy and innovate in their choice of tattoo designs. Rib tattoo is definitely a daring and bold option if you want your ink to stand out from the rest.
