Chest tattoos are rapidly becoming one of the most popular tattoo ideas. A well designed tattoo on the chest can be very attractive to both men and women and can be a teaser when wearing a button down or v-neck shirt. They signify confidence and inner strength and can be easily seen or covered.

For men, the chest is an ideal canvas for larger tattoos - it’s easy to picture pirate ships, birds of prey, religious symbols or other intricate designs adorning that area of the body. It is also not unusual to find powerful symbols of strength, pride, loyalty, courage, and masculinity tattooed in this location.

For women, it is not uncommon for a chest piece to be more moderate in size and, because it is an area close to the heart, have emotional meaning attached. Chest tattoos can be used to accentuate a woman’s cleavage and can be ornate or simple in design. Sternum tattoos are gaining popularity as are underboob tattoos (tattoos inked on the ribcage directly under the breast),which are a stunning way to feature a woman’s natural curves and accentuate her femininity.
