Butterfly tattoos are some of the most feminine tattoos out there for women! Butterflies look great on any curvy part of the part. Their gentle flight, delicate colors and beauty bring feminine charm to any tattoo. Also, there are hundreds of types of butterflies for you to choose from when considering a butterfly tattoo.
Upper back butterfly tattoos look great when you focus on quantity and detail. A collection of many well-placed butterflies mid-way in flight looks great as a full back piece. You can even use your shoulder blades as part of the tattoo design and have them flittering around them. For even more flair, use different types of butterflies to add interest to your piece. A collection of blue swallowtail and monarchs is breath-taking with their bright colors and interesting shapes.
Lower back butterflies look great when you use one large butterfly, or several large butterflies flittering to your hip or thigh. If you want just one large tattoo, a large butterfly stretched across your lower back is an excellent choice. The dip in your lower back is perfect for the natural dip of the butterfly's wings. For some uniqueness, add a splash of tribal lines to further enhance the curves of your butterfly.
Less commonly seen are butterfly tattoos that are on your arms and shoulders. Butterflies going around your biceps can be quite lovely. One of the best butterfly tattoos we've seen was a collection of small butterflies flitting about the back and shoulder of a woman in a sleeve 'tat. Once again, the smaller details highlight the natural feminine curves of your body and the butterflies themselves. It also looked great because it showed off her muscles!
Where can you find inspiration for what type of butterfly you want? I suggest looking at a naturalists' guide to butterflies! Remember, you don't want a moth-like butterfly! We're going to go over which species make great tattoos for their fun colors, and which species you should match together.
