Rib Tattoos Remove Tramp Stamp Tattoo Trend
The economy may be heading in the wrong direction, but that doesn’t mean tattoos are, especially women tattoos. These days tattoos are looking up, or rather moving up for women. The new rising tattoo trend has women removing tattoo “stamps” on their lower backs, and opting for the new sexy tattoo trend — Rib Tattoos.
Almost as soon as the derogatory, sexually humiliating term “tramp stamp” reared women with lower back tattoos began getting tattoo removal and trading in their tainted tattoos for new sexy rib tattoos that crawl up the side of their bodies.
Today’s weak economy is changing the tattoo industry in terms of women’s tattoo trends. Although, the rate of women getting their first tattoos doesn’t seem to be decreasing, the amount of money women are spending on their tattoos is.
Other emerging tattoo trends for women are celebrity name tattoos, especially popular these days Nicole Richie rosaries; vintage American tattoos such as skulls, hearts, stars, and anchors; Japanese (koi fish, ocean waves) styles; as well as a swing from English-style block lettering to fancier script letters.
Expect many women to follow the celebrity tattoo trends of Megan Fox and her rib cage tattoo with the words “There once was a little girl who never knew love until a boy broke her HEART” until someone creates a derogatory, sexually humiliating term for women rib cage tattoos like “Ho handle.”

Full Body Tattoos
Full-body tattoo is hot? Well, it depends on the design and most of these tattoos can be covered with clothes. Some of the celebrities that have full-body tattoos include Pamela Anderson and Charisma Carpenter. I think full-body is common on Caucasian women but what about Asian chick? Asian chick with a full-body dragon tattoo is super hot!
Inked Tattoo Design
This is a Tattoo Design that was inspired by an old b-movie poster and based off of traditional tattoo art. The design was pen & ink, converted to vector art in Adobe Illustrator and colored in Adobe Photoshop. I submitted this design to a “Tattoo My Tshirt” contest that was being hosted by Inked Magazine and won first place for the month March.

Phoenix Tattoos
Lion Tattoo Designs - The Lion is an ancient symbol, one that has been incorporated into the religion and mythology of numerous cultures and civilizations since recorded time around the Middle East, India, throughout Africa and bordering the Mediterranean. Lions once roamed the southern reaches of Europe. The influence of the power of the Lion's symbolism can be seen in it's representation in both Chinese and Japanese art and mythology, both cultures beyond it's range.
Dragon Tattoos
Dragon Tattoos -The dragon is a "classic" tattoo motif, popular with both men and women. As a tattoo design the dragon shows the profound influence that Japanese and Chinese culture have had in Western tattooing for nearly two centuries. In the Far East, the dragon represents the Four Elements - Earth, Wind, Fire and Water - and the four points of the compass - East, West, North and South - and dragons are simultaneously a symbol of Water, Earth, Underworld and Sky. The dragon is a culturally far-ranging character whose apparent bad temper should be interpreted as simply amoral, neither good nor evil. The forces of nature are not human-hearted, representing as they do the cycle of life and death, followed again by birth and renewal. Nature nurtures and nature destroys. So too, does the dragon.
Maori / Polynesian Tattoo Designs
Maori / Polynesian Tattoo Designs - Maori tattooing is a distinct school of patterns and graphic designs within Polynesian tattooing. While much of Polynesian tattooing is derived from straight-line geometric patterns (and thought to originate with patterns found on ancient Lapita pottery shards such as have been discovered in Samoa), a design fact which rose in part because the traditional Polynesian tattoo combs are best suited to linear designs, Maori tattooing is essentially curvilinear, and the mainstay of Maori designs are based on the spiral. It should be noted that renowned traditional Hawaiian artist Keone Nunes has demonstrated that it is possible to reproduce complex curved designs using traditional Polynesian tattooing implements.
