Wrist Tattoo: Inconspicuous Eye-Catcher?
A wrist tattoo is very popular. Stars like Lady Gaga or Emma Stone wear it. We give you inspiration and tips.
Wrist tattoo: Introduction
Wrist tattoos are characterized by the attention to detail – their place on the body is quite limited. A tattoo on the hand can therefore be used very well for small, emotional messages.
The advantage: On the hand you can see the tattoo anytime you want. But you can also cover it up with clothes without any problems. Tattoos on the wrist often run at the height of a wristwatch or bracelet, so that they can also be easily hidden with it.
Tattoo on the wrist: What does the fun cost?
- With tattoos there is a simple rule: the bigger the more expensive! Of course, the complexity of the motif also plays a role, but you should be able to get your tattoo on your wrist relatively cheaply from the tattoo artist.
- The price should never play the decisive role in the decision to get a new tattoo. A tattoo is a decision for life and you should be able to identify yourself with it. To make the decision easier for you, you will get nice inspirations for tattoos on the hand.
- A tattoo on the hand should cost you about 50 to 100 Euros. But of course, depending on the motif and tattoo artist, it can also be a little more expensive or cheaper.
Wrist tattoo: Does it hurt a lot?
Pain is always individual and therefore it is difficult to say how the tattoo will go in your case. Basically the wrist is a very sensitive part of the body, because the skin layers here are very thin.
But do not worry! Experiences show that a tattoo on the wrist is less painful than for example in the neck or under the breast. So do not worry about it too much beforehand. The decision for or against a tattoo should not be made based on pain or price.
