Baby Angel Tattoo

A baby angel tattoo is another name for a cherub tattoo. Angel tattoos are very popular with both men and women. Angels are considered messengers from God and they are our link between heaven and earth. Having a baby angel or cherub tattoo expresses your spirituality.
There are many different angel designs that you can get but cherubs are the most popular. Unlike many people think, cherubs are not really baby angels - they are just small angels. The most popular cherub angel is Cupid. Cupid represents love. Many times you see Cupid depicted with a arrow which he shoots into your heart to make you fall in love.
What makes cherub designs popular is that they can be placed on many different parts of the body. You can have a cherub over your chest or on your shoulder. They can even make great wrist or ankle tattoos because they are small. If you combine a cherub with clouds, hearts or other symbols, you can create a very unique design that is special to you.
Make sure that your design expresses your feelings. Don't just pick a design because someone else has it or it looks good. Pick a design that tells your story. When someone asks you why you have a baby angel tattoo, you want to describe what it means to you. When you have a unique design, your tattoo becomes more personal.

Shoulder Tattoo

If one is confused about the place for a suitable tattoo then it is advisable to start with the shoulder. It becomes the area of emphasis and also provides a wide area to be covered which provides some scope for innovation with the designs that are being used. Flexibility factor can also be maintained with the shoulder and later on designs can be extended.
The location of a tattoo can be compared with a real estate agency. One may for a moment may not think and invest in an agency but for a tattoo it is imperative to understand the location and along with it the design or theme for a better investment because tattoos are a permanent change. The ball and socket joint area provides a curve that can be used to depict a floral design very aptly and the design in this area is also called the upper arm tattoo. The flowers can be used as falling from the top, a cupid at the top back etc are designs that can be incorporated for the area.
The use of a design on the shoulder is not gender specific. It can be used freely and aptly by both men and women. Rather for them it's the most appropriate place for a tattoo. The women can reveal the back when wearing a dress, halter necks etc. while the men can reveal the design when on the beach with a bare chest or at the gym while exercising. The common design patterns for both the sexes vary drastically, particularly for this area. The women prefers to use designs like flowers, angels etc. For men the design varies from a group of small intricate designs, Japanese tattoos, Celtics etc.

When you have just got your new tattoo done it should not be exposed to direct sun rays and friction with clothes must be avoided. Extra care is necessary because the shoulder is a sensitive area. Tattooing in this area can be very painful as there is limited muscle, tattooing on bone hurts a little more than on muscle or fat.
