Even though it’s one of the most popular tattoo places on the human body Shoulder Tattoo Designs can be very hard to find. The most common types of artwork to place on the shoulders is Celtic designs, dragons, skulls, initials and Tribal art.
Placing a piece of art on the shoulder really gives the tattoo artist and the one getting the inc a lot of possibilities. The shoulders have lots of space giving room for both thin detailed patterns as well as thick impressive ones. The tattoo can be extended down to the arm evolving to either a half or a full sleeve, it can be extended on to the chest or to the neck and back. Another good thing when making a shoulder tattoo is the size and shape of the shoulder, its contours makes it really easy to re-shape and fit almost any kind of art.
One great advantage with shoulder tattoos is the ability to blend it in to complement and extend earlier tattoos on the back, chest or arm. If you have a detailed tattoo on the arm you could extend it up to the shoulder and on to your back, having it transform from very detailed down on your arm to a thick tribal or Celtic design on your shoulder and then back to a more detailed design on your neck or upper back.
Having shoulder tattoos makes them really easy to hide both from people and from the most horrible enemy, the sun. Since the shoulders are covered most of the time the inc will last for long and keep the rch new made feeling.
When choosing a shoulder tattoo design you should be very picky, as mentioned earlier it’s a great spot to place a piece of art so don’t wast it! And as always when choosing a tattoo don’t go for the popular one, you should like the design yourself.
