Tattoos look great on girls and they often add to the sex appeal of the girls. However, selecting a tattoo can be difficult if you are not sure of your needs. People are often looking at most popular tattoos because they suit everyone and look sophisticated. The most famous tattoos are American tattoos and they have been around for centuries. They mostly have nautical stars, classic American cars, sailor jerry tattoos, swallows and pin-ups.
You can also add and modify the designs which you like. Size of the tattoo is also important and you have to select a tattoo which fits the place where you need a tattoo. The craze of tattoos has declined over time but still people love wearing tattoos
A poll in 2003 reveals that 16% of Americans wear an American tattoo which is higher than 10% in 1998. There are also statistics that very few people get their tattoos removed which shows that people love the tattoos on their body. US and world news also shows that there are over 20,000 tattoos parlors just in US and on an average a new parlor opens everyday.
Most people get the American tattoos on hands, neck, face and other visible parts on the body. There are always concerns when a person goes for a tattoo on the neck because the skin in the neck is thin and needle is closer to the bone. The pain actually depends on the physical and mental health of the person.
An American tattoo heals in 2 to 3 weeks but a tattoo on neck can take more time. Neck is a sensitive area so the tattoo also takes time to heal. The advantage of having a tattoo on neck is that they are less prone to infections as compared to the tattoos on hands and legs. You should also make sure that you are using sunscreen lotions on the tattoos otherwise they can loose their ink quickly. However, the process of adding ink in tattoos is not painful.
American tattoos are not just popular in US but they are also popular in other parts of the world. The people all over the world modify the tattoos and use them. People in Australia add a Kangaroo on the classic American car and these kinds of tattoos are quite famous in Australia. There are also many sailor jerry tattoos which people use by having their God or any religious identity as sailor in the tattoo.
All these kinds of tattoos are used everywhere. Celebrities all over the world can be seen carrying tattoos. There are other good designs which are now used in style of American tattoos. The Thai tiger can be seen roaring in tattoos, these kinds of tattoos are called hybrids. Most rock bands have their trademark tattoo which is carried by all the band members and their fans.
