Ahh. This is one hot tribal shoulder tattoo design, and the way it extends to the upper back is super HOT. That means appealing. Sexy.

Here are a few things that I find hot about this tattoo, and you might want to think about if you are getting a tatoo:

• The tattoo design is asymmetrical. Remember – symmetry is sucky. This is because it is safe. Safe is not memorable. Safe is…well…unadventurous and quite a bit chicken. Safer is dull, mainstream and the majority. If you are getting a tattoo, why be safe?
• The tattoo design is strong. It’s screams boldness and strength. Once again, I repeat my fave mantra “go big or go home.” This is not a rule, but one of those little reminders, a check point to ask yourself when you are doing something creative. It is that extra bit that will push you further – to the “edge” – and perhaps inspire great art. Getting a tattoo is a creative endeavor. Be creative. Be great.
• The tattoo design is simple yet says a lot. That’s the beauty of tribal tattoos – their artistry has been worked over the ages, and so they’ve had time to get it right. Trust your elders! Yet be of your time. How easy is that? Not so easy. But this tattoo design did it.

Take your time choosing your tattoo design! The Internet is made for helping you choose tattoos.…by giving you the time to choose tattoos at home at your leisure.
