Arm Tattoos For Guys

Arm tattoos for guys are very popular and unsurprisingly so. This area looks great for men (it even does for women), it can be covered up easily if you want to and yet it is also easy to show off as it is on your upper body. In this article, I want to quickly give you some food for thought which will allow you to brainstorm and develop your arm tattoo ideas further.

Tribal Arm Tattoos For Guys

Tribal Arm Tattoos For Guys

By far the most popular type of tattoo in this location is the tribal design. It is not overly-complicated but the geometric shapes give a great look, especially to this uniquely shaped body part. Probably it was “The Rock” who first gave this tattoo widespread exposure. However, you certainly don’t need to have huge deltoid muscles for it to look good.

Arm Tattoos For Guys – Sleeves

Sleeves Tattoos For Guys

Sleeves look fantastic – they usually go from the wrist and all the way up to where the shoulder meets the neck. Some guys like it to extend even further to the pectoral muscle of the chest. A sleeve is not like a single design. It is more like a flowing composite of several designs. This demands a lot more thought than most tattoos. Another option is for the half sleeve. This only goes down to the elbow. There are many possible styles of sleeves. Although many guys talk about the Japanese style of sleeve tattoo there are also others to consider such as tribal, biomechanical and even a Celtic sleeve.

Dragon Tattoos On Arm

The dragon is a simple of strength and wisdom and is favoured by many. When featured on the arm, it is common for the head to appear on the side of the chest. Or, if you don’t want to ink your chest, you can simple feature it on your arm. Most of the time an artist will draw the dragon with the head at the top of the arm and the body curving around the contours of your arm. Although most are black work (black or grey shades of ink), some dragon tattoos are done in very vivid colours. The best that I have seen was a brilliant green shade.

Cross Tattoo On Arm

Cross Tattoo On Arm

This is usually chosen by guys who are either practising Christians or Christian by birth. Easily the most popular is a Celtic cross. You need not have Celtic origins to have this tattoo and those with them will not be offended by your wearing one. Of course, there are many, many variations of cross tattoos. You’d do well to investigate them separately before deciding which one to put on your arm.
