The most popular themes for intimate tattoos
The concept of “intimate tattoos” includes not only images applied directly to the genitals, but also designs on those parts of the body that are usually hidden from prying eyes: the lower abdomen and pubis, groin, gluteal region, bikini area, sacrum and tailbone, mammary glands.
Tattoos on the pubic area and in the bikini area are combined with an intimate haircut or complement the haircut with a pattern, creating a certain image. Intimate tattoos include tattoos of an overt, sexual nature, regardless of location.
The theme of a tattoo on intimate places can be anything and depends only on your imagination. Based on the frequency of selected motifs, you can prioritize:
- Flora is choice number 1. There is room for your imagination to unfold here. These are flowers, leaves, stems, fruits, trees. They depict a separate plant, a wreath, and floral patterns.
- Fauna. These are representatives of the cat family, bats, butterflies, birds, dragonflies.
- Oriental patterns, lace.
- Names, inscriptions and phrases, zodiac signs, symbols.
- Cartoon characters, computer games, faces of famous actors.
- Abstraction.
- Humorous pictures, inscriptions.
There are two main groups of images:
- With meaning or hidden meaning. These are inscriptions, sayings, phrases, symbols and signs, hieroglyphs, runes and runic staves, images of magical amulets, astral signs. Together with the master, you can create an individual sketch and put into it a meaning that only you and your loved ones can understand.
- To decorate the body and draw attention to the intimate area or intimate part to increase sexual attractiveness.
Men's intimate tattoo
Tattoos in men's intimate places are much less common than in women. Men prefer to emphasize a beautiful body, muscles, rather than genitals. Most guys make drawings “for fun”, considering it funny and provocative.
For men, tattoos are placed on the penis, scrotum, buttocks, and groin. Often the penis and scrotum are part of the picture, making it “volumetric”. The photo catalogs contain the following offers:
- elephant's trunk;
- snake;
- the Dragon;
- arrow;
- climbing flower;
- mushroom.
Women's intimate tattoo
Men have a different attitude towards intimate images of women and often oppose images of their beloved, with whom they want to create a strong family and have children. I wonder why?
Women fill their breasts, apply patterns around their nipples, and decorate their buttocks. Lately, patterns under the breasts that extend to the armpits have become popular.
Girls who prefer a smooth pubis or an intimate haircut make an image in the bikini area, on the pubis, even on the labia. Most in demand among women:
- flowers and oriental patterns;
- animals - cats, wolves, bats.
- birds - swallows, hummingbirds, owls.
- bright butterflies, dragonflies, less often spiders;
- snakes, dragons, mystical creatures - fairies, mermaids;
- lace, precious stones, hearts, monograms, daggers, inscriptions;
- skulls, crosses and other signs and symbols corresponding to the style of subcultures (goths, punks, emo, hippies.)
Tattoos applied for practical purposes (to hide physical features)
One of the reasons for getting an intimate tattoo is the desire to emphasize your sexuality, surprise your partner, and show your freedom in intimate matters. But with the help of a drawing it is easy to hide some “flaws” on the skin. For example, scars, scars, moles, stretch marks, uneven pigmentation or any physical features.
With the right body art, you can visually increase the size of a man’s small penis, emphasize the beautiful shape of a woman’s mammary gland, or hide an unpleasant birthmark or scar by “fitting” it into a color picture.
Questions for the tattoo artist3
- Does it hurt to get a vagina tattoo?
The intimate area is one of the most painful places on the body to get a tattoo. Usually, to do this, the master stretches the skin and applies a pattern along the pubic bone. If you have a low pain threshold, you will have to be patient, as this procedure can be quite painful.
For this reason, it is recommended to do the first tattoo in a different place, with rougher skin. So, you will check your pain level and decide for sure whether you want a tattoo on your vagina. As a test drive, you can make a drawing on the buttocks. The sensations are approximately the same.
- Do I need to remove pubic hair before the procedure?
Yes, and it’s better to do this 2–3 days before getting a tattoo. Waxing is recommended, as after it the skin recovers faster, and the appearance of new hairs does not interfere with the passage of the machine needle.
It is highly undesirable to do hair removal on the day of the procedure. This will disrupt the healing process and make the process even more painful. Getting a tattoo on irritated and inflamed skin is not a good idea.
- How should I prepare for a tattoo?
The best option would be to take a bath or shower. Respect yourself and the work of your master. You are unlikely to be pleased to bury your face in the crotch of someone who neglects the rules of intimate hygiene.
- Can I get a tattoo during my period?
You can do it. You'll also have to shower and use a tampon instead of a pad. This is not prohibited, especially if you feel comfortable during the drawing process. At your request, the specialist can interrupt the process (to change the tampon or for physiological needs).
- Is it possible to have sex after a tattoo?
It's best to avoid vaginal sex for a while, as friction and sweat will slow down the healing process. In addition, the liquid can cause inflammation of the pattern area. But no one canceled oral sex. This is like an alternative.
- What about masturbation?
I repeat that it is better not to do this. Like vaginal sex, masturbation involves friction, sweating, and lubrication. Abstinence after a tattoo is the best and surest way to heal a wound.
- Can I play sports?
The answer is clear - no. Don't forget about friction and sweat. If you are so impatient, you can do yoga. Just don't choose stretching exercises. Slow and relaxing asanas will be just right for you.
- How long does it take for a vaginal tattoo to heal?
The story, as with any other tattoo, is the same. It all depends on how well you take care of her. Recovery time can last from 2 – 3 weeks to six months. For better healing, it is recommended to drink a lot of water, but not in excess if your tattoo is not located in an area that gets constantly wet. Feel your body and drink as needed.
Well, we discussed such a scary and, in some places, taboo topic of tattooing in an intimate place. I hope that all questions regarding vaginal tattoos have been answered. Do you have a tattoo? If yes, then talk about your experience, fears, if any, and wound care. I will be interested and welcome feedback. Good luck!

Features of tattoos on intimate places in men and women
When choosing a picture for a woman, it is necessary to take into account the physiological characteristics of the female body. Cellulite appears on the buttocks and they sag. Breasts also sag and increase greatly in size during pregnancy.
When making images of animals or birds on the chest of a young lady with a small size, it is difficult to imagine what will happen to the picture in ten years, when the shape of the breast changes.
Whether we like it or not, thin and delicate girls after childbirth become appetizing - with wide hips and lush breasts, with a tummy. Decoration of the lower abdomen and pubic area is good for athletes and dancers.
A sagging belly will ruin the whole impression. Knowing these features, choose floral ornaments, patterns, and inscriptions as a sketch. Pictures that will not suffer much from an increase in the volume of the decorated area.
Some men, and there are quite a few of them, consider the presence of drawings on a girl under her underwear a sign of promiscuity, accessibility and lack of modesty. According to male logic, why make jewelry if it is not visible to prying eyes, well, not to admire it yourself?
It is highly undesirable to make drawings of a sexual nature, phallic symbols, or provocative pictures in intimate areas. Such decorations look very vulgar and vulgar.
They may categorically dislike their partner and ruin their future personal life. If you have decided to make a drawing, it is better to do it without sexual connotations.
Men have a special attitude towards pictures with cobwebs, spiders, and insects. Many note that such “patterns” reduce sexual desire and are repulsive.
In men, the image on the body does not change much. Of course, if the weight remains within normal limits. However, not all women like tattoos on their penis in the form of an elephant’s trunk, a flower stem, an arrow, and the like.
They can make a lady laugh at the most crucial moment. Some men who got these and similar humorous tattoos in their youth under the influence of fashion and environment subsequently realize that these arts have greatly spoiled their adult sex life.
What seemed funny and amusing in students, in adult women causes a feeling of buffoonery and frivolity. Ladies believe that a man with an elephant on his penis is impossible to rely on in family life, and in general it is difficult to watch without laughing.
In addition to tattoos on intimate places, both for men and women, popular designs that do not change in appearance and shape with age are those printed in the lower back and on the tailbone.
Where is the best place to get a tattoo?
Of course, it is better to get a tattoo in a salon where sanitary standards are met and real artists and masters of their craft work. Trying to save money and getting a tattoo done in a homemade way or from a little-known artist at home, you risk getting an infection.
This can be a simple infection of the wound surface, but also more serious diseases such as HIV or hepatitis B.
Study the reputation of the master, the salon, look at the portfolio, look for reviews, and, if possible, check the qualifications.
In a good salon, they will introduce you to tattoo culture, tell you about the meanings of the images, draw an individual sketch if you wish, and explain everything about tattoo care. Consider that this is a mini operation, which means you need to treat it responsibly and carefully.
It is not advisable to perform anesthesia; a competent specialist will most likely not offer it to you. Anesthesia promotes muscle contraction; after relaxation, the pattern may become deformed.
Allergy sufferers are not recommended to tattoo with chemical inks. A strong reaction and serious complications may occur to the paint.
Aftercare
The master will definitely advise the client on how to properly care for the tattoo. The durability and clarity of the resulting pattern, as well as the rapid and comfortable healing of wounds, depend on subsequent manipulations.
After a day, you need to change the bandage, which was made in the salon using thick, breathable bandages. They are designed in such a way that the skin does not sweat, and most importantly, the fibers do not stick to the damaged area. After removing the bandage, the intimate tattoo should be washed carefully with purified water and antibacterial soap.
The use of a towel is strictly prohibited; you should either leave the skin until it dries on its own, or blot it with paper napkins. After this, a special ointment is applied, which is created for the care of tattoos. The duration of these procedures depends on the individual characteristics of each person. On average - from 5 to 10 days.
Usually, after tattooing, tattoo artists schedule a follow-up visit to examine the design and give further recommendations, if necessary. Girls should definitely wear only natural underwear when caring for a tattoo.
Is it painful to get a tattoo in intimate areas?
People have different pain thresholds. Women tolerate pain better than men. In general, tattoo artists recommend first making a tattoo on an arm or leg, or shoulder, before moving on to the groin or pubis, and even more so the genitals. They advise you to evaluate your pain capabilities and paint tolerance.
The thicker the skin and the greater the fat layer, the less pronounced the pain when filling the pattern. There is less pain on the sacrum, pubis and buttocks than directly on the penis, scrotum or labia.
In general, men and women admit that the pain is quite tolerable and even less than from beauty injections.
The most common options for intimate tattoos
Intimate tattoos can be temporary or permanent. Permanent tattoos may fade a little over time, it depends on the quality of the ink, the characteristics of the person, and the place of application, but they last a lifetime.
Temporary apply:
- to see how the design will look on the body, whether it will be in harmony with other tattoos and body features;
- surprise your partner, make the meeting original and unforgettable, find out your partner’s reaction to such creativity.
Before a romantic date, girls combine temporary tattoos with an intimate haircut and coloring, and decorate the picture with rhinestones.
Temporary tattoos are suitable for guys and girls who love variety, change, experiments and do not want to wear one design or inscription.
Temporary tattoos:
- Mehendi (tattoo made with henna). Safe, does not contain chemicals, you can even do it yourself if you have drawing skills. Lasts up to a month.

Inscriptions

Aesthetic lovers select a beautiful font, language or symbols. Oriental hieroglyphs look good for both men and women.

Are there any recommendations for intimate tattoos?
For a tattoo to be a thoughtful and carefully weighed decision, the guy needs to determine the following criteria:
- sketch - you need to draw up a drawing yourself, without using someone else’s ideas;
- location – work can be on the groin, buttocks, genitals, lower back;
- scale – you need to think in advance how large the sketch will be, how much skin area it should occupy;
- style and color - upon arrival to the master, a man needs to firmly decide on the style, as well as the colors in the drawing;
- meaning - the guy must understand what exactly he wants to convey with such an act, what meaning the tattoo carries.
Important! Due to the sensitivity of the place on the body under a tattoo, it is extremely important for a potential client to find an experienced artist. Saving means risking your health, since we are talking about genitals and serious consequences. And removing low-quality work with a laser will be many times more expensive and painful.
