Girl Tattoo Gallery Review

If you are a girl looking for a cool girl tattoo, an excellent place to search is a tattoo gallery. You'll notice there are a few online galleries which may look very promising. So which one should you choose?
Girl Tattoo

Here's my girl tattoo gallery review which will give you an idea of which one to choose for beautiful designs.
Girl Tattoo

1. An Exclusive Girl Tattoo Gallery.

There are galleries online which are exclusively "girl only". That is, they cater specifically to female tattoo designs. Now while you may think that this must be the gallery for you, hold on for one moment. While, yes, you will get many girl designs, you also lose out on a lot of "gender neutral" designs which can look very beautiful as tattoos. Recently I saw a girl who just had some ink placed on. It was a tiger placed on her back, and it looked extremely sexy! Somehow it was very feminine as well. But it was the kind of ink that you likely wouldn't find in a girl tattoo only site. So if you want a smaller selection base of feminine only designs then this type of gallery might be for you. but if you want a larger selection, consider other gallery sites.

2. The Unlimited Tattoo Design Gallery.

These are galleries which have thousands of high quality designs, and are constantly being updated with new designs. While this may sound a bit overwhelming, and you start to realize that such a gallery will require a lot of time to go through, I believe in the end it really is worth it. The thing with tattoos are their permanence and the "regret factor". You definitely don't want to regret your ink, and I believe putting in your "due diligence" and going through a lot of designs to ensure you are getting the absolute best is really the way to go. Besides, it's actually fun! Once you get going on one of these sites, you really won't want to stop. It's really fun going through and bookmarking your top designs, and eventually narrowing down your decision.

Tatuajes de serpientes

Si hablamos de tatuajes de reptiles, es imposible continuar sin los tatuajes de serpientes, ya que estos animales son los protagonistas de la mayoría de estos tatuajes, tanto que son consideradas tatuajes clásicos o de la vieja escuela, y que han perdurado hasta el día de hoy, donde también siguen siendo de los diseños de tatuajes mas vistos y populares.

Las serpientes alimentaron pesadillas de la humanidad desde siempre por su agresiva naturaleza, sus ojos tan característicos, su lengua bífida, sus colmillos y desde luego, su capacidad de matar indiscriminadamente con sus poderosos venenos.

Suelen acompañar tatuajes de calaveras, para ser un símbolo inequívoco de muerte y desesperanza, por lo que de mas está decir que se las suele utilizar con el fin de lograr una apariencia mas amenazadora e impartir ese miedo tan conocido.

Pero no todas las serpientes son venenosas, dado que las boas y las anacondas no lo son, pero no por ello son menos aterrorizantes, ya que su fuerza, determinación y tamaño les ha valido encontrarse representadas en tatuajes.












Tatuajes de Rock

De los géneros musicales, el Rock es el que mas característico se vuelve a la hora de expresar rebeldía y desorden, ya que desde sus comienzos por 1950 con el Rock And Roll y el Rockabilly, se dió a conocer por su “violencia”, poder, energía y velocidad, que iban completamente en contra de todos los otros géneros musicales, que solían se mucho mas tranquilos.

Por esta apariencia desprolija y revoltosa, rápidamente fue adoptado por los jóvenes rebeldes, y el resto se convirtió en historia, que devino en una gran cantidad de géneros musicales como el metal, el punk, el indie, el hard rock, el rock progresivo, el soft rock, new wave, glam rock, el rock alternativo, el grunge y muchísimos ejemplos mas.

Lo que se puede decir con seguridad es que los tatuajes de rock son sin duda la representación mas fiel de esta rebeldía y el estilo de vida que se lleva con esta música, por lo que millones de personas se realizan tatuajes de sus instrumentos, bandas y símbolos rock alrededor del mundo.









Tatuajes de estrellas tribales

Los tatuajes de estrellas se encuentran dentro de los tatuajes mas populares ya que tanto hombres como mujeres se los realizan ya sea como protagonistas de los diseños de tatuajes como también de complemento para rellenar, los por lo que tranquilamente se pueden incluir estrellas en casi todos los tipos de tatuajes.

Tanto es así que inclusive hay tatuajes de estrellas tribales, subiéndose a la ola de los tatuajes tribales, que también se encuentran dentro de los tatuajes mas vistos, pero estos gracias a su gran versatilidad y capacidad de poder ser utilizados como un estilo de tatuaje, por lo que también tienen un gran numero de diseños.

Los tatuajes de estrellas tribales no son demasiado comunes, pero esto se debe a que no son demasiado vistos por ser originales y novedosos al combinar estos estilos y diseños, pero todos sabemos que esto es solo cuestión de tiempo.










Tatuajes para mujeres

Siempre solemos decir que no hay tatuajes para hombres o para mujeres, ya que si bien hay algunos tatuajes femeninos, se los suele ver tatuados en hombres también, en gran parte debido a que el mundo se ha convertido en un lugar mucho mas unisex en donde las diferentes culturas interactúan entre si sin demasiados problemas.

Aún así, las mujeres suelen encontrar varios tipos de tatuajes que sienten mas representativos, ya sea por sus significados de feminidad, delicadeza, suavidad o simplemente porque se las asocia con su personalidad, como por ejemplo los tatuajes de flores, los tatuajes de estrellas, los tatuajes de corazones, ángeles, hadas o inclusive tatuajes de frases.

La mayoría de estos tatuajes suelen tatuarse en zonas delicadas como las muñecas o la ingle, y también suelen ser tatuajes pequeños, para potencias mas sus significados de delicadeza, aunque también se los puede encontrar en las piernas o en toda la espalda, dependiendo en mayor parte de los diseños de tatuajes.
