Thigh Tattoo Does it hurt?
The first question most people ask when they see a female thigh tattoo is does it hurt. Of course, this varies from person to person, but overall, the front and sides of the thighs are among the least sensitive places. The inner part, as it has thinner skin, ends up hurting more.
Avoid getting tattoos close to menstruation (before and after), as pain sensitivity increases.
Tips and Care
There are some precautions you should take before and after getting a tattoo for women on your thigh. They will help you get a better and less sore result!
Before
- At least a week before, apply moisturizer daily to the place where the tattoo will be done. By being more hydrated, the skin will be able to heal better.
- During the same period, avoid sunbathing in the region.
- If you have any hair in the area, shave it (preferably two days in advance).
- Take good care of food and drink water.
- See if you are not allergic to any element that makes up the paint.
- Pay a visit to the studio of your choice before booking your tattoo. It's always good to get to know the place, check if the cleaning is up to date and if the staff is good and talented people.
- Choose the professional well! After all, your tattoo will stay with you for the rest of your life.
After
Your tattoo artist will certainly give you some recommendations so that you can take care of your tattoo in the best possible way. But in general, the tips are:
- To keep your tattoo clean, the best option is antiseptic soaps.
- Die or plastic film regularly.
- Avoid bushings.
- Abuse of Bepantol.
- Don't itch! It may be difficult, but the little dirt that stays under the nails can even cause an infection!
- Don't pull the cones.
- Escape from the sun in the first few months. And after that, always be with sunscreen.
- Wait at least a month to enter the sea, swimming pools and bathtubs! As the skin is broken, contact with impure water can cause infections.
A tip to relieve the itch is to pat instead of scratching.
Women's Thigh Tattoo Photos and Ideas
Now that you know what the main precautions are, it's time to check out several beautiful models of tattoos for women on the thigh. And they are many! From animals, to flowers, tribals and phrases.
Delicate / Small
As the female audience generally likes more delicate tattoos, we separate some examples. On the thigh, the most famous models are also valid, such as hearts, stars, flowers, anchors and arrows. But you can also vary and choose other options such as: paying homage to your pets, reproducing the phases of the moon or betting on other animals, such as fish and seahorses.
Phoenix
As opposed to smaller models, Phoenix tattoos usually occupy a larger area. Some girls even choose to start the design on the ribs and belly, going through the hip and ending on the thigh. This tattoo can be done only with black or colored ink and can have other elements, such as flowers.
Butterfly
One of the most feminine designs for tattoos are the butterflies. On the thighs, they can appear black or colored. They can also be made in different sizes, with the wings open or not.
Love League
Want a sexy tattoo? You can bet on one love league! This model is usually made around the thigh, imitating the accessory. It is usually accompanied with a bow, which can be done in black or red. Laces are also common and if you want to innovate, you can even 'hide' something underneath it, like a weapon.
Flores
One of the most traditional designs in tattoos are the flowers! The most famous are still roses, but you can choose any other to your liking. With regard to colors, it is clear that the models in black look amazing. But, if you want to give more life to the tattoo, you can and should bet on more vibrant tones!
Tribal
Gone are the days when people said tribal tattoos were only for men. Many women already bet on this model and the truth is that the results are beautiful! As for the size, it varies a lot, but in general they are big. Since some even fill the entire thigh, hip, waist and even the ribs.
One of the main references for this type of tattoo came from a people from New Zealand, called: maori. According to their belief, the more noble and fearless the warriors were, the more tattoos they would have on their face. Around the 2000s, this trend left Oceania and became a fever in all corners of the world.
One of the coolest things about this type of tattoo is that you will never find two identical designs!
That Comes from the Rib / Waist
We have already mentioned some examples of tattoos so large that they end up taking the ribs and waist. And the truth is, you can do this with just about any design. Tribals and Phoenixes look beautiful this way, as well as mermaids, flowers, mandalas, phrases and leaves.
Writing / With Sentences
Among the most famous tattoos are those that contain phrases. In this case, it is worth the taste, personality and creativity of who will be tattooed. The writings can be inspired by religions, sayings, songs, excerpts from books, movies, among others. Just don't forget to choose your font well and make sure the grammar is correct!
Animals
We've already shown you some female thigh tattoo options with pet dogs and cats, but how about betting on other animals? Wolves, deer, antelope, foxes, elk and elephants are just some of the animals that can be chosen. And if you're more daring, you can even opt for a snake or jellyfish!
Other
Some drawings don't fit into any of the previous topics, but they are so amazing that they deserve to be in this selection! An example is the tattoo of Mermaid from the photo below, with fine lines and various details.
Another mythological being that is heavily tattooed is the unicorn, which looks perfect on the leg.
For those who are fans of skulls, this is also an amazing option to do on the thigh, especially the Mexican. And if you want, it can even be accompanied by a phrase.
But, if you are looking for other drawings that bring special meanings, how about betting on one Hourglass ou anchor. The first object, as it is used to measure time, can signify its passage, as well as the appreciation of each moment. The second can represent shelter, protection and the roots of the person.
And speaking of roots, how about a tattoo of tree or with a Lotus flower? It can even be accompanied by other elements, such as the sun and moon in the drawing below.
And of course there could be no lack of examples with indian designs and mandalas. They can be large, small, go around the thigh and even occupy the entire leg.
