Hi, I’ve been thinking about getting a small tattoo for a few weeks now, but I wanted something that actually had some meaning behind it rather than just picking a random design. Since I was born in March, I started looking into birth flowers and ended up considering a daffodil. I’ve never really gone for flower tattoos before, so it’s a bit outside what I usually like.
While looking into the symbolism, I found a useful explanation for a daffodil tattoo meaning, which actually helped me narrow down the style. I’m leaning toward something fairly minimalist, although I’m still considering adding a little color.
The part I’m less sure about is the placement. I’m hesitating between the lower abdomen and the hip. The hip seems like it might hold up better over time, but I’d rather get some opinions from people who actually have tattoos in those areas.
I already talked to a tattoo artist in Metz and have an appointment next month, so I’ve got a bit of time to settle on the final design. The tattoo will be fairly small, with a budget of around €120.
If anyone has experience with tattoos around the hip or lower abdomen, especially regarding pain and how the tattoo has aged, I’d be interested to hear how it went.
