Selecting a star tattoo design and ideas for designs
Star tattoos are interesting because there are so many ways to
get them done. Some people are drawn to designs like shooting stars,
but there are other tattoos that incorporate stars. Finding the
right star tattoo design and ideas for you might be easier once you
understand a little bit more about this design style.
Nautical star tattoos, for instance, have tons of lore behind
them. Sailors popularized this tattoo because stars are used in the
maritime world for guidance. Myths suggest that these tattoos also
denoted homosexuality at one point. Women could get the tattoo on
their wrist to show their preferences and hide it with a watch by
day. Popular designs include the star alone and with an anchor,
which ties it back to the nautical world.
If the nautical idea isn't quite your style, looking through
tattoo galleries can help you come up with design ideas. You'll
notice that lots of people choose to get not just one star, but a
cluster of stars. There are a myriad of locations on the body
suitable for star tattoos, like the foot, back, hip, and arm. For
design ideas, check out this gallery of tattoos that include stars
from
BME.
Nautical star or shooting star? Tribal or Celtic design? Do you
want a solid color, an outline, or a design infill? These are all
questions for you to consider when you're planning a star design for
a tattoo. It may seem overwhelming, but it's just a matter of
finding what you want!
