How to choose the armband tattoo design for you?

Armbands are a favorite first for tattoo virgins, but whoever you are, and whatever you like there is an armband tattoo design out there just perfect for you. Its simply a matter of finding it. And by asking yourself the simple questions below, youll just be that much closer to making up your mind.

• Is there a tattoo design style that youre particularly infatuated with? There are those who will only sport tattoos of one style or type, tribal or Celtic, for example. Others have turned themselves into a virtual gallery, with different styles & themes and colors & symbols. If asked, each would have rich stories explaining their meaning and significance. The point is, despite what history, myth and legend say regarding authentic meanings, tattoo is a very personal art, and each piece has it own special importance to its bearer. There are no wrong answers. 
• Are you willing to mix things up? Do you feel free to create your own armband tattoo design? If so, you can even mix different styles together to create your own unique tattoo design. An armband with intricate, angular Celtic knotting highlighting a tribal horse as the centerpiece. Or, an incredibly feminine Celestial fingernail-moon surrounded by a soft and sexy twist on the super masculine barbwire. In all reality, the possibilities are endless. 
• Are you looking for a feminine, masculine or gender neutral armband design? Even if youre absolutely certain that youll be getting a feminine design (or vice versa), dont completely ignore some of the more masculine armband designs. Often, you can find your own, unique design by looking at pictures, styles and symbols outside of your comfort zone. Feel free to explore your options. 
• Do you have a special kinship with any particular animal? Whether the animal is real or fantastical, a bug or a horse, magical or mundane, the fact remains that since time began, mankinds special regard and relationship with creatures and beasts has never been temporary. Some did, and indeed still do, believe that each person has their own special totem animal guardian, and sometimes even more than one. Are you obsessed with frogs, fascinated by dragons, captivated by tigers, or bemused by butterflies. If so, you may wish to incorporate this animal into your armband design.
