Many people from older generation still consider tattoos as something typical for either sailors or criminals. Luckily, during the last decade, the art of body painting has improved so much that tattoos have become real works of art, even masterpieces, rather than primitive symbols. For example, designs in Realism or Biomechanical styles are very impressive. Watercolor tattoos are stylish and beautiful and without any doubt Tribal and Celtic tattoo designs are real eye catchers! Forearm tattoo ideas come in a huge variety of designs, but before looking at the styles and popular images, let’s have a look at their advantages.

Versatility is another advantage of forearm tattoos. They are easy to hide. You just need to wear a long sleeve shirt. If you need to comply with a strict dress code at work, for example, you can easily hide the tattoo. If your profession does not require strict rules, then even better, you can proudly display the unique tattoo on your forearm.

The painless application is also an advantage. Of course, when we talk about tattoos, “painless” is quite subjective, but compared with the process of applying an image to other body parts, the painful sensations are minimal. This is due to the fact that the arm does not have a lot of nerve endings, and the bones are hidden under a thick layer of muscle tissue. This is good to know if you plan your first tattoo and wonder where to apply it. In addition, the skin itself heals quickly and if you take proper care for the tattoo, especially in the first days after the procedure, it will retain its attractive appearance for a long time.
