Love is an ever-popular symbol in tattoos, whether of the
heart or someone’s name or of a rose. A horseshoe tattoo
signifies good luck and fortune.
EAGLES
Birds of flight are also becoming more popular. They can be
positioned in the middle of your lower back facing forwards if
you’d prefer a symmetrical tattoo design, or placed off-centre
to include a beautiful plunge; it’s your choice. An eagle
symbolizes strength and bravery, and a blue swallow
demonstrates a return to home and life.
MELANCHOLY
There are also heaps of melancholic designs you might like
to think about. The most morbid of all would be the skull. It
symbolizes death. Perhaps you could include a few flowers to
make it more personalized? In addition, the Grim Reaper is
becoming popular, but there is nothing stopping you from
incorporating other images. Further, there are the usual sword
and barbed-wire designs. Paradoxically, a tattoo design which
include barbed wire could be very suitable for your lower back
given the curves of the wire.
SEA
Sea-themed designs have always been popular. They include
tattoos of, e.g., anchors, stars and mermaids. Anchors are a
cool inclusion due to their curvaceous shape. In addition, it
is possible to have names (maybe yours to avoid the need for
removal surgery if a relationship breaks down) included in the
design. Stars are excellent too, because they can be shaped to
trace the femininity of the base of your back. A mermaid is a
great way of accentuating your femininity, and employing the
long hair of the mermaid to curve your lower back.
TAKE YOUR TIME TO FIND THE PERFECT ONE FOR
YOU
There are heaps of
old school tattoo designs out there, so take some time
to research and decide which ones you are drawn to, then maybe
think about whether you want to change it to mould it into the
ideal tattoo for yourself. They have lasted the test of time,
so take advantage of that!
