Tattoo on / behind the ear

Tattoo is a special way to express yourself and to be able to do it in a stylish and unique way.

Today there are an incredible number of ways to get an original tattoo. And one such way is to tattoo on the ear and behind the ear. The motivation of each person to create a tattoo is as unique as each individual sketch - for someone it is a sacred decoration, but for the other owner it is just a way to show your character.

In fact, people getting tattoos on the ear and those who have tattoos behind the ear are completely different categories of people.

After all, the first group of people are original personalities who do not follow the well-known paths and lay their unique routes. Such tattoos are extremely rare, but they differ in their uniqueness. Only brave individuals who want to show their brightness can decide to get such tattoos.

But the owners of hidden tattoos behind the ear are individuals who are not ready to reveal their soul to anyone. They know exactly what they want and have clear life goals. Just do not like to shout about it to the whole world, but just quietly implement their plans.

Tattoos on/behind the ear are popular among women because they allow for the expression of creativity and individuality, but leave the possibility to remain invisible.

Especially when it comes to ear tattoos.

Here are some popular ideas for tattoo sketches for women that can be used:

• Flowers and plants. Floral elements on the ear add femininity and elegance. They can be done in different styles, from realistic to stylized or abstract forms.
• Geometric elements. Women can choose geometric patterns or symbols that give the tattoo a modern and stylish look.
• Minimalist design. Many women prefer simple, minimalist ear drawings such as small stars, hearts or symbols.
  
  
  

As for the tattoos behind the ear, they are often chosen symbols that have a deep meaning - common or individual for a particular owner (these may be feathers, as a symbol of freedom, violin keys or other musical symbols, as well as birds, cosmic symbols, etc.).

Men’s tattoos are remarkable for their originality and courage in design, because men’s hairstyles can rarely hide them.

Therefore, these tattoos are much more visible and more pronounced.

Tattoos for men in this area are often the continuation or addition of existing tattoos on the neck or face. Such tattoos are always bold and visible.

It is difficult to discern specific elements that are more common, but in general, trends can still be traced:

• Masculine images designed to emphasize courage and strength are often associated with arrows, weapons or armor.
• Often male tattoos are abstract and geometric - they can be both lines and shapes, because their meaning is not always on the surface.
• Ornaments, inscriptions, runes - more often runic and iconic symbols in tattoos used by men, but this is not an exclusive right. Especially if you consider the fact that there are no "male" runes - because the ancient Celtic peoples had equality.
  
  
  

Tattoos for men do not have such a clear division with regard to their openness for viewing, because even the tattoo behind the ear male is noticeable.

This is a question that bothers even the bravest clients for an original tattoo in an unusual place.

At least to be able to be ready morally (or to clarify about anesthesia). In fact, although the area in the ear is quite small, it can be divided into several zones that have different sensitivity.

And also, immediately worth noting that the tattoo on the ear or behind it is small enough, so long to endure discomfort will not be necessary.

In the ear area, the skin is thin and has many nerve endings. Usually, tattooing is accompanied by unpleasant sensations that may extend to the jaw, for example, or cause a temporary headache. This fact may become unpleasant for those wishing to get a tattoo in this area, but it should be noted that all people are individual and have different pain threshold and that for some it hurts, others may be a little inconvenience or a little discomfort.

Ear tattoos also have certain features that you need to remember before you decide to get them.

And the first thing to know is aftercare, because this area of the skin is very sensitive and unprotected, which makes it difficult to care. In addition, time of the year is important. In summer, for example, the ears are exposed to ultraviolet light and there is a risk of dust. In winter, on the contrary, cold and moisture, and it is known that you should not wet the tattoo at first.

Due to the peculiarity of application deep under the skin on the ears of the pigment, there is a risk of it slipping under improper aftercare.

That is why you should carefully read the rules of aftercare and, if it is possible, choose for this place not too complicated sketches. Small tattoos with a lot of details can be "lubricated" over time and will be difficult to recover in time. These tattoos can look bad, even if they were done professionally.

It should be noted that the skin is regularly renewed, because constantly under the influence of external factors. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the condition of the tattoo and update it in time. But the beautiful ear tattoo has a very original and unique look that will definitely distinguish you from other tattoo owners. The main thing to take care of choosing a reliable master for the implementation of your idea.
