When it comes to tattoos, one of the world's most requested designs are Irish tattoo designs. There is no arguing about it. With its interesting history and the imagery of Ireland reflected on all Irish tattoo designs and the meanings that comes with every pattern, it is not a wonder why people of non-Irish descent, are so enamored with it, oftentimes infusing it with a meaning of their own. I know you would, too.

Over the years Celtic and Irish tattoo designs have merged and had came to be known as one and the same, except for a handful of designs that are truly Irish such as harps, the shamrock, and the claddagh symbol. Celtic patterns and knot work have long been considered to be Irish and these knot works and plaits helped make Irish tattoo designs gain worldwide recognition among tattoo lovers and body art enthusiasts.

However, Irish tattoo designs are also getting more popular among the regular folks: people wanting to have a tattoo, not to show off or to be more popular or to belong to a group, but to have a part of a loved one etched on their skin as a tribute. It could be for a person, or for a pet that is considered by the owner to be part of the family. For example, you have a pet dog and you want to keep him with you forever but you know you it is impossible, you actually can opt to have an image of your pet tattooed on you, done with an Irish twist with all its intricacies. In a way, he is with you whatever happens, wherever you go.

What's fascinating about these Irish tattoo designs is you can infuse into it a design of your own without disrupting the exotic Irish appeal of the original pattern. If you want a tattoo of your pet dog done in Celtic knots, you can do so and with an excellent tattoo artist, the outcome would be quite fascinating. The image of the animal would not be easily recognizable among the knots and patterns, but if you look a little closer, you will first make out the outline and the more you look, the more you will see the image of your pet artfully embedded into the design, into your own skin, permanently. Not only did you get a tattoo of your pet, you got it in a mind-blowing design, too.

Some people just love their pets so much that they are willing to immortalize them in the form of a tattoo. For some, it is okay to have their pets boldly tattooed on their body but it is not always appealing that way. One of the best ways is to do it with an Irish or Celtic flavor to add more mystery to it. It is more fascinating and more interesting when it is not too obvious and, more often than not, it is a lot more meaningful that way. And that is what a tattoo should be.

Deciding where on the body to get a tattoo is the most difficult part of the decision-making process. Of course, many people choose traditional locations like the shoulder, the upper arm, or somewhere on the main torso. But now many people are starting to look towards other areas to display their tattoos, and so, a plethora of armband tattoo designs have entered the mainstream.

Armband tattoos are very popular with people getting tattoos for the first time. On one hand, these tattoos have become somewhat of a fashion statement, and that puts them in high demand. On the other hand, they can be hidden under most short-sleeved or long-sleeved shirts, so they are suitable for individuals who may need to fit into a conservative social or professional environment.

Another reason that armband tattoos stand out to first-timers is their ability to be created as feminine, masculine, or gender neutral designs. The many options that armband tattoos present gives those who aren't absolutely sure about what kind of tattoo they want the ability to experiment just a bit.

Armband tattoos seem to be universally accepted by the entire tattoo community. From bikers and sports icons to corporate gurus and exotic dancers, there seems to be an armband design acceptable for all trades. Its possibilities are seemingly endless.

Some of the more frequently sought after armband designs include Celtic knots, tribal patterns, Hawaiian themes, floral arrangements, dragons, snakes, and other serpents, feathers, and Native American patterns. Armbands can be adapted into nearly available style.

Armband tattoos are usually inked on the upper arm, at the widest part of the bicep. And while the outside portion of the upper arm can be one of the least painful parts of the body to get a tattoo, the inner upper arm can be a bit more sensitive.

Many people have been led to assume that the sensitive nature of this area has caused some individuals to accept incomplete tattoos. But, it is quite the contrary. Because the shape of the arm changes as the arm is rotated, only tattoo artists extremely adept at armband tattoos can actually make the two ends of a band meet due to the fluctuations in the arm as it moves.

Many first-timers new to tattooing quickly get addicted and choose to complement their armband tattoo designs with a wristband or and ankleband tattoo. With these, too, the possibilities are almost endless and are only limited by the confines of the imagination of the one choosing the art.
