Think aloud
Spine tattoos are one of the favorites, especially among women. There’s something feminine and romantic about placing your new ink there and honestly, we understand why everyone’s raving about it. But have you considered getting a cursive tattoo on your spine? It does sound interesting, right?
Cursive tattoos are elegant and have a womanish feel. They can be delicate, thin, and sleek or you can make them bold and daring. Honestly, it’s up to you.
If you’re thinking about decorating this part of your body, then you’re probably scrolling through the internet, trying to find a design that you love.
Choosing a new tattoo isn’t easy especially because you know that it’s a piece of art that you’ll wear on your skin forever. That’s why you want to make the right decision as you don’t plan on covering it any time in the future.
We made sure to pick all the options we love and present you with a number of possibilities on how you can make your new spine tattoo stand out. Let’s jump right into it!
1. Simple decoration
“Live a life you will remember” is a beautiful quote, but when you want to add that something-something to it, this simple decoration at the top of your spine could be the solution. A butterfly and a flower slowly turn into the saying, making your tattoo slightly different.
2. Simple lettering
If you want to keep things simple, then there’s not much to think about. Just make sure you find the right quote and have your tattoo artist place the stencil perfectly, down the middle of your spine. (P.S. “And I could see for miles, miles, miles…” could be your chosen quote, if you like the sound of it.)
3. The lotus flower at the top
A lotus flower is another feminine touch you can add to your graceful spine tattoo. It will definitely make your design more girly and cute. So, if that’s something you’re looking for then you’ll love this one.
4. Half the spine tattoo
When getting a spine tattoo, you can choose to stop in the middle of your back. We know that the majority of the ideas you’ve seen cover the whole spine, but it’s your body and you can opt for anything you like.
5. Is it a saying in cursive or a rose?
What if you turned your cursive quote into the stem of a rose? If you don’t mind the fact that this design won’t be perfectly positioned down the middle of your spine, then it’s definitely an option worth considering.
6. Surrounded by the flowers
Spine tattoos don’t have to be just about the saying on your spine. You can always add some additional elements that you like. A good example is adding flowers. They’re a beautiful way to make your design more personal and suitable to your aesthetic.
7. Bigger letters
The cursive font doesn’t have to be thin and sleek. You can also opt for something a bit thicker that will make your new tattoo stand out.
8. A rose and a butterfly
A rose and a butterfly are two common elements that decorate different tattoos. So, you can always use them on your spine, when you’re looking to make your design pop.
9. Lotus and ornaments
We’ve already presented you with the idea of adding a lotus flower at the top of your tattoo. But you can also add some additional ornaments to the bottom of your spine. These intricate details will make this whole piece on your back truly special.
10. A bouquet of flowers
A bouquet of flowers that turns into a quote? You can make it fit your style by opting for your favorite flowers and even adding some colors to it. Personalize your new tattoo as much as you want because you’re going to be the one who’ll wear it for the rest of your life.
11. Cute butterflies
Tiny butterflies are always a good choice. Somehow, they make everything cuter and that’s exactly what they’ll do to your new spine tattoo.
12. Cross at the top
If you’re a religious person or if you’ve chosen a quote to represent that, you can always add a cross at the very top of your spine. It will tie the whole piece together and make it feel more special.
13. Red ink
Sometimes, simple things make the most difference. We know you’re looking for some elements that can make your spine tattoo one of a kind but even the change of the ink color could be enough to give you the results you’re looking for. Switch from black to red (or literally, any other shade you like) and you’ll notice a huge difference.
14. Sparkles and butterflies
Butterflies and sparkles will make your new tattoo feel magical. Who would’ve thought that these tiny details could make such a difference?
15. Lettering as a part of the flower
A flower that turns into a saying is a cool idea, especially because you can personalize it. Choose your favorite quote and flower and make this floral piece a true work of art.
16. Black and red ink
One easy thing you can do is mix different ink colors and let them contrast each other. Black and red are always a good choice, especially when you want to accentuate certain words.
17. Feather and arrow
This tattoo is powerful and somehow, completely different from all the other designs on the list. We love the fact that it truly radiates strength through all these different elements which together work like a charm.
