If you want to get a tattoo, but have absolutely no idea which one, you can safely beat a tattoo on your biceps. Variations of patterns and its location are numerous, so you can definitely find something for yourself.
Biceps tattoos, fortunately, are almost painless. The bone is located far from the skin, so there will be practically no painful and unpleasant sensations. In addition, by stuffing a picture on the muscles, you will also protect yourself from pain. The skin in this place is quite dense, so you don't have to worry.
Speaking of a tattoo in this place, we do not necessarily mean a bracelet. Although it can be quite interesting and original, you should not immediately discard this option. It could be a tattoo on the inside of the bicep. In this case, the picture will be quite hidden, but at the same time, visible if you yourself want it.
Inscriptions have been popular lately. In case you choose this type of tattoo, think carefully about the font. Of course, pictures depicting inscriptions from the category “God protects me” and stuff like that are quite poppy. However, it is still better to choose the Latin alphabet, because the Cyrillic alphabet looks too simple.
In the case of the inscription, it is also worth considering carefully whether your tastes will change and whether you would like to get rid of it. Because hammering it with another pattern is extra money and time.
In any case, tattoos on this part of the body are quite practical and comfortable. Whatever you choose, it will be easy to hide, say, under a sleeve, or on the contrary to show. In addition, there are no special restrictions regarding the picture. Also, a bicep tattoo can be a good start for a sleeve. Below are photos of tattoos on the biceps from different tattoo artists.
Those who really want to fill themselves with a tattoo, but can’t decide where exactly to place it, stop their choice on this particular part of the body. You can fill the image on the outer surface of the arm or slightly hide the tattoo on the inside of the biceps. The drawing will not be noticeable at first sight, but if the owner wishes, it is quite visible.
An inexhaustible range of photo options for a tattoo on the biceps, both for guys and girls, will make it possible to choose an interesting sketch for such a tattoo, although it is better to develop your own unique pattern. In any case, the location of the tattoo on the arm is advantageous in that there is always a choice - to show this masterpiece or hide it under clothes with a longer sleeve.
Why biceps
On the upper part of the arm, the skin is quite thick, there is practically no pain. If you imagine a ten-point scale by which pain can be classified, then the sensations on the biceps will be at the level of four points, no more. In addition, in this place the bone is deep, it closed by muscles. The situation when the needle reaches the bone is excluded. And this will protect you from having to endure suffering for the sake of style and beauty.
Names, inscriptions in non-Russian are often written on the arm, all kinds of interlacing in the form of bracelets are drawn, and even barbed wire tattoos are stuffed on the biceps. We would like to note that pictures with inscriptions look quite poppy, so if you decide to apply letters, then think carefully about what font they should be written in. The Cyrillic alphabet looks especially inexpressive in a tattoo, so it is preferable to depict the letters in the Latin alphabet.
