When it comes to the question of “where should I put my tattoos“, there is no doubt some interesting debates both with other people and inside your head. Especially if this is your first tattoo. In order to answer this question you must first consider this. Your body is generally split into two distinct areas – the area covered by clothes most of the time, and the one that people will see.
The area of your body which is usually covered by clothes is generally regarded as the safest part to have put your tattoos. There are going to be times, like going for a job interview, attending weddings or other formal occasions, and other situations where you might not want other people see your tattoos. This is also an important consideration if your job involves having to deal with the public as many employers frown on tattoos which could affect their business. So getting your tattoos on the parts of your body that are usually hidden my clothing a safe choice.
Perhaps the favorite place for tattoos, which is a compromise between hidden and being in plain view, is the biceps. Tattoos placed here will be seen by those who should be seeing them, but easily hidden from those who should not. While the forearm is another popular place to put tattoos, remember that you will need a long sleeve shirt or blouse to cover them and this can be very uncomfortable if you don’t work where it’s air conditioned during the summer.
Other safe locations for men considering tattoos would be the chest, back, shoulder, or calves. For women desiring tattoos these would include the lower back and upper thigh since these areas can easily be hidden with a dress.
