Tattoos are one of the easiest ways to express your sense of style. Like any beauty trend, though, there are certain designs that cycle in popularity – and then there are ones that remain timeless, like back tattoos.
Back tattoos have gotten a bad rap in the past – particularly lower back tattoos, sometimes known by its more derogatory name, the “tramp stamp” (which is currently having a resurgence thanks to the popularity of Y2K aesthetics) – but there are other placements in the area that have proven to be quite popular over the years.

Whether flaunted in tanks or hidden under t-shirts, back tattoos have the ability to be be both sensual and discreet. You can get stunning designs like fine-line tattoos on places like your upper-shoulder blade or down your side. Or, you can spice it up with a design either right above or on your butt cheek. (Yes, that still counts as your back.)
