Getting a hip tattoo is primarily a female tattoo. There are very few men who will get a tattoo here unless it is part of a much larger tattoo design that just happens to extend down to this area. So many of the common female tattoo designs can be used here. Anything from a fairy to an angel to a butterfly can all work well in the area. Often women also like to get more traditionally done hip tattoos in this area. Such as a skull and crossbones, a dragon or even a nautical star. However, due to the placement of the tattoo in such a sensual place it no longer looks to many but interestingly enough very sexy. The juxtaposition of a manly hip tattoo in such a feminine area often works really well. Another consideration is many people like to get symmetrical tattoos in this area and might design a tattoo that worked well on both sides. For example a angel and a devil can work well with one on each side of the hip. Whatever design you choose you will want something that is pretty small and not to large. Since the hip is a small area it will fit better if the tattoo is smaller and therefore you will want it to be not overly intricate either. If you get a really small tattoo that is very intricate you are headed for an ink spot in the future that can become indiscernible.

best star tattoos ideas
If you are someone who feels a special attachment to the heavens, the moon, and the stars, you may feel that a star shaped tattoo design is perfect for you. The key is to find a star tattoo design that is really unique and is truly personalized for you.
So, how do you do this? Well, here are some of the best star tattoos ideas to consider which will help to make the design your own and symbolize your true self. An eight pointed star, known as the cross of St. John, and also represents the emblem of the Knights of Malta, can be traced back to one of the most popular religious organizations during the crusades. You could opt for the seven pointed star as it has varied meanings and can represent different periods of life or feelings.
If commonly represents a symbol for being a perfected man. But watch out, it can also represent your childhood, the whimsical or can be a fairy star. Think this star tattoo design over very carefully if the meaning is important to you. The tattoo stars in the picture are really impressive and I like the way the design travels up the leg from the foot to the calf. It’s very impressive and pretty.
Here are some more tattoo stars for us to check out. The difference here of course being that we also have the initial D among these stars. Obviously that initial is going to stand for the name of the person with the tattoo or a person very close to them. Most likely it is the name of this person and then it would make sense that this person thinks of themselves as some sort of undiscovered star, hence the initial with the stars. Sort of like saying so and so is a star, even if they are the only one that knows they are a star, that’s okay. There’s nothing wrong with considering ones self a star. In some way or another, at one time or another, almost every human being alive is a star to someone else. If you think about that you will see it to be true. And if someone is not then they are still very young or have wasted their life terribly. There’s not a whole lot of in between there.
These two little tattoo stars with the capital D next to them could simply mean the Star of David, which of course is the universal symbol for Judaism.

Tribal tiger tattoos
Tribal tiger tattoos
Tiger tattoo designs
In Asia tattoos hold significance other than for appearances. Tattoos are said to be the link between the physical and spiritual bodies of a human being. Most people believe tattoos are an outward manifestation of the inner being; therefore the tiger is representative of a forceful nature equal only to the dragon. There are 5 tigers that rule the cosmic forces in Chinese lore.
Tiger tattoo
* The RED tiger is the symbol of the south, of summer and fire.
* The BLACK tiger is the symbol of the north, of winter and water.
* The BLUE tiger is the symbol of the east, of spring and vegetation.
* The WHITE tiger is the symbol of the west, of fall and all metals.
* The YELLOW tiger, the greatest of the 5 is the ruler of the Earth and everything on it.
There are also 5 different sub-species.
* BENGAL
* SUMATRAN
* SIBERIAN
* INDOCHINESE
* SOUTH CHINA
These could easily be incorporated into a very distinct, one of a kind tattoo steeped in symbolism.
One of the twelve signs of the Chinese Zodiac is the tiger. Those born in the year of the tiger are said to be colorful, unpredictable, powerful and passionate. The zodiac symbol done in tribal tattoo style would make for an eye - catching conversation piece. This tattoo could practically be as small or large as you wish it to be as the zodiac symbol can be made smaller without losing too much picture quality.
To create the tribal tiger tattoos one could begin by marrying traditional tribal work with traditional Japanese (In Asia, the tiger is the master of all big cats.), this would be a very colorful and detailed piece to show the best of both styles. The traditional Japanese work is done in vivid color and detail, while traditional tribal is single color; (typically dark, as the original tribal work was done with whatever suitable pigment could be found.) with varying degrees of detailed patterns.
These tattoos work very well with the cats natural black stripe pattern, making them re-creatable to an almost life-like degree. The amber/golden, almost molten color of the tiger-eye would be striking against an all black tribal piece. Putting a little extra effort and thought will give you a showpiece to enjoy and show off to others for a lifetime.

Tribal lion tattoo design
The tribal lion tattoo is chosen by people who have placed a lot of time and thought into the design of their tattoo. With it being the king of beasts, it can and does represent many character traits. Some of them being:
· WISDOM · AUTHORITY · COURAGE · JUSTICE
· POWER · CUNNING · NOBILITY · ROYALTY
Tattoo lion Leo
This is one of the 12 signs of the zodiac. He is the Leo, the sign of the sun (26th July – 23rd Aug.). The astral symbols are very popular in tribal tattoo so it should be easy to combine these styles into some stunning tribal tattoos. While the typical colors for tribal work are dark, any colors can be chosen to add to the uniqueness of your piece.
This design also has a great religious significance, with Jesus being called “the Lion of Judah” and the tribe of Judah being symbolized by a lion. Even today the lion of Judah is on the emblem of Jerusalem. So it is not uncommon for people to express their spirituality through a combination of lions and tribal tattoo.
These tattoos can be single design with its mane being entirely tribal or multiple lions with their limbs or manes being the tribal design. Armbands Tattoo and sleeves tattoo or partial sleeves tattoo are the most popular locations for tribal work, with backs tattoo, calves and thighs coming close.
A tribal lion tattoo can also be designed as a memorial for a loved one. Especially if your loved one was born under the sign of Leo or if this person had the same qualities attributed to the great beast. These can be practically as small or large as you want them, however with smaller patterns there is some distortion of animals and tribal work.

Lion Tattoo are also seen as dream symbols as they were nocturnal hunters and walkers of the night. One idea to meld the tribal style with a lion would be to place a lion inside a dream catcher. With the right color choices this could be a very eye-catching design.
A little research will take you a long way towards getting the tattoo that is just what you are looking for. Don’t get discouraged on your search; every truly unique tattoo was born in a process from life event to application of the tattoo that immortalizes it. These can become permanent tributes to the major events of your life much like the tribes of old told the story of their lives on their skin.

Questions To Ask A Tattoo Artist Before Getting A Tattoo
Questions To Ask A Tattoo Artist Before Getting A Tattoo
If you are thinking of getting a tattoo, take the time to talk with your tattoo artist. During the conversation, make sure to have a list of questions that you would like answered prior to moving forward with your decision. Below are a few questions that you should consider asking:
How long have you been in business? This is important in determining how professional the work will be and what type of reputation the business has. If the tattoo studio is a member of the Better Business Bureau, check out their record to see about any complaints that have been initiated within the previous 36 months.
What are your qualifications? Before you see a doctor, isn’t it important to know that they are qualified? Absolutely. The same is true with a tattoo artist. Even though the two professions are completely different, there are similarities in that both involve the use of needles and both professionals must be knowledgeable in their approach at sterilizing their equipment. An individual’s qualifications and training history will tell you a lot about what to expect.
Do you guarantee your work? If the final image isn’t exactly as you had hoped for, will it be fixed at no charge or what is the process if you are unhappy with the tattoo? Is there any type of refund policy? These are all important in determining service after the sale.
Can I see samples of your work or do you have references? If you want to know about the quality of work, you should always ask for references in any business.
How much will this cost? Before agreeing to a specific tattoo design, you will want to know the full cost involved. Large tattoos can be very costly, but even the smallest design can be expensive if you are on a budget. Do yourself a favor and avoid any surprises - ask about the costs upfront.
How many tattoos have you done? This will give you a good indication of the experience level and how much design work the artist has done.
What is the likelihood of an infection and how may I prevent one from occurring? Every good tattoo artist can provide this information. He/she should be able to tell you what to do to lessen the likelihood of an infection and what to do if you suspect that one may be developing.
Is there anyone who should not get a tattoo, such as someone with certain medical conditions? This is important, especially if you are asking because you have a condition that concerns you. Individuals with thin blood, for instance, may be more cautious about anything that involves breaking the skin or needles. The same is true of individuals with other conditions, which should be addressed prior to agreeing to be tattooed.
If I have a fear of needles, is there any way to help me through the process of getting a tattoo? Don’t feel bad if this is you. A lot of people have a fear of needles, which is a device used in creating tattoos. If you are afraid, it never hurts to explain this to the tattoo artist beforehand so that he/she can try to take extra steps to make you feel at ease or to make the experience a less painful one for you.
How long will the tattooing process take? This is important, especially if you are getting a tattoo on your lunch break. All kidding aside, you will want to know how long to expect the process to take so that you can plan the rest of your day accordingly.

How long will the tattooing process take? This is important, especially if you are getting a tattoo on your lunch break. All kidding aside, you will want to know how long to expect the process to take so that you can plan the rest of your day accordingly.

If you are thinking of getting a tattoo, take the time to talk with your tattoo artist. During the conversation, make sure to have a list of questions that you would like answered prior to moving forward with your decision. Below are a few questions that you should consider asking:
How long have you been in business? This is important in determining how professional the work will be and what type of reputation the business has. If the tattoo studio is a member of the Better Business Bureau, check out their record to see about any complaints that have been initiated within the previous 36 months.
What are your qualifications? Before you see a doctor, isn’t it important to know that they are qualified? Absolutely. The same is true with a tattoo artist. Even though the two professions are completely different, there are similarities in that both involve the use of needles and both professionals must be knowledgeable in their approach at sterilizing their equipment. An individual’s qualifications and training history will tell you a lot about what to expect.
Do you guarantee your work? If the final image isn’t exactly as you had hoped for, will it be fixed at no charge or what is the process if you are unhappy with the tattoo? Is there any type of refund policy? These are all important in determining service after the sale.
Can I see samples of your work or do you have references? If you want to know about the quality of work, you should always ask for references in any business.
How much will this cost? Before agreeing to a specific tattoo design, you will want to know the full cost involved. Large tattoos can be very costly, but even the smallest design can be expensive if you are on a budget. Do yourself a favor and avoid any surprises - ask about the costs upfront.
How many tattoos have you done? This will give you a good indication of the experience level and how much design work the artist has done.
What is the likelihood of an infection and how may I prevent one from occurring? Every good tattoo artist can provide this information. He/she should be able to tell you what to do to lessen the likelihood of an infection and what to do if you suspect that one may be developing.
Is there anyone who should not get a tattoo, such as someone with certain medical conditions? This is important, especially if you are asking because you have a condition that concerns you. Individuals with thin blood, for instance, may be more cautious about anything that involves breaking the skin or needles. The same is true of individuals with other conditions, which should be addressed prior to agreeing to be tattooed.
If I have a fear of needles, is there any way to help me through the process of getting a tattoo? Don’t feel bad if this is you. A lot of people have a fear of needles, which is a device used in creating tattoos. If you are afraid, it never hurts to explain this to the tattoo artist beforehand so that he/she can try to take extra steps to make you feel at ease or to make the experience a less painful one for you.
