Hello! I'm planning on getting a patriotic heart tattoo and was wondering if anyone had suggestions as to a position for it. I am a female, only 20, and want it to be "discreet" because it is the first and only tattoo I want to get. I am also a bit concerned with the pain, but I understand it's going to hurt no matter where I get it. I was thinking on my breast, but then I just read a bunch of websites/articles about getting it there - and I do plan on having kids someday and wouldn't want it to look "icky" after that. Please let me know your suggestions!

I dress pretty conservative, but I do like to wear tank tops and don't particularily want it shown when I wear a swim suit...

I love patriotic tattoos. Breast tattoos, unless you tattoo into the areola, are not very painful as compared to most other areas on the body. Also, if you have it placed in an area of the breast that is not exposed to sun when wearing a swimsuit, it will stay pristine for many, many years. Mine looks like it was just done a few months ago and it has been years!

Just because a woman has kids does not mean her breasts will deform. Certainly the breasts enlarge with pregnancy and nursing, but they go back down again and young skin goes back into shape relatively easy (although you will hear of stretch marks along the outer sides from time to time.)

Good luck with that - go for it!

It all depends how "discreet"you want to be.........
my tattoos, I have half sleeeves and a back piece, are not on everyday show. I like it that way so I can choose when to cover and when to reveal them.
If you're not careful though you might reduce the options about where it will be to below the panty line, back or front. Not that's a bad thing but shouldn't a patriotic tattoo be a bit more on show than that?

I have 4 tatoos and they are all discreet. Back of the Neck, nap of my back (Lower Middle) Shoulder blade, and tummy. I wouldn't suggest the tummy though because I can only imagine what is going to happen to that when I get pregnant!
Any of the other spots I mentioned are nice because you can easily cover them up...but when you want to, you can make the visible. Good luck...there is a little pain but it's really nothing that bad

I would think your lower to mid back should be fine. or you can have it done on your hip, it all depends on what type of clothes you wear on a regular basis, also take into consideration summertime is coming and people tend to wear shorter clothes so think about if you want it to show in a bathing suit for example, or shorts. if you don't mind that you could get it done on your ankle.
again depending on how you dress you could have alot "discreet" places or only a few.
Discuss your concerns with your artist and he/she migjht have some more suggestions for you.
Good luck

ok no 1 it's going to hurt in some place more then others. And if you are going to get one and you are sure that's the one you want and you are proud of it then put it where it will be seen . cause i don't understand why people gets tattoo's and have them covered up by clothing even in the summer it makes no sence to me. and remember it will be there for life unless you go and have it removed or covered up by another one.I have 11 of them and i love them all. And it really only feels like a bee sting.

Without sounding like an Internet horn dog. A heart tattoo looks amazing on the butt cheek. Kind of high and just off center.

I think that you should get it on your shoulder blade or foot back something like that. I got a tattoo and I had people with me to hold my hand and I sat backwards on a chair which helped also playing or listening to music also helps to stay focused on something else. It depends on where you get it to what position your in.

a breast tattoo would definitely tend to look worse over time. if you want something discreet, i would go for the ribcage. tho it will be more painful it is a beautiful spot to get a tattoo!
