More than half the people who are tattooed in the US carry the XX chromosome. As more and more women get tattooed, designs have turned from the bold and masculine to more elegant imagery. Here are 12 types of tattoos that many women are drawn to.

Shoulder tattoos – While men tend to get their tattoos started a bit lower on the arm, women often prefer to move from the arm onto the top of the shoulder for their ink.

Gorgeous watercolor work.

Floral Sleeves – A go to. They start with one or two flowers and just want to keep adding, usually consisting of roses, sunflowers, daises, and/or lilies.

Roses in both color and black-and-grey – Roses are the most popular floral tattoo right now, just like they are the most popular flower. You can go with realistic roses or the stylized ones common in tattooing.

Animal print of Lace Patterns – Sexy and wild. Animal print normally on the hip or shoulder.

Tiny outline tattoo – Wants ink but only two lines. Often is something like an arrow, triangle, infinity symbol. Nothing that will distract from their body part, but they want something there.

Floral Skulls – These women love skulls but want to give it a little feminine touch to it

Filigree – The renaissance, rustic, cute make any place on the body sexier and in a way more elegant.
