Girls With Beautiful Neck Tats






*Erotic Flower Tattoo*




This Native American feather design is beautifully intricate.










Lotus Flower with Sanskrit. A popular design but still plenty of room to make it uniquely your own.






Recommended Site:








Very vibrant and bold. Flowers can be made both beautiful and feminine or dark and edgy. This design of roses seems to be seen often in Rockabilly Culture.

Does A Neck Tattoo Give You Rock Star Status?

















Hell Ya!



Okay if you can actually Rock Onstage even better but seriously, neck tattoos can be the most ballsy statement you can make. That's why neck tattoos have been coined "job blockers."









If you decide to get something tattooed to a visible place on your neck you can pretty much kiss a lot of Corporate America goodbye. That's actually not a bad thing. Anyone whose been apart of Corporate knows what a soul sucking experience it is...and should be avoided at all costs!

It's 'optimal' if you can become a full time rock star, tattoo artist or other occupation where being edgy is welcome.

In the video below Travis Barker tells us the reason for his many tattoos. Travis claims to have spent over $30,000 on his body art.













Another part of the neck to get tatted is the back of the neck. Very sexy! The nape of the neck is one of the "erogenous zones" purr. Also, the back of the neck can be covered up pretty easily.

Angelina Jolie whose known to have a lot of tats has this one on at the base of her neck. The Gothic letter tattoo says "Know Your Rights". It's the title of a song of her favorite band The Clash. It also is significant to her because of her Humanitarian Work as a UN Ambassador working with Refugees around the world. Every tattoo on Angelina's body has a special meaning to her.







If you're seriously thinking about a neck tattoo you probably realize it's not a place you want to give half ass thought to. Because of it's visibility it's really got to have special meaning to you...represent a part of yourself. A tattoo artist that has helped a lot of people find a really meaningful designs is Chris Evans. Check out his 5 Steps to Choosing the right design here.
