Butterfly Tattoo Designs

Butterflies actually have been considered a fashion statement over the years. Whether it is clothes, accessories like bags, jewelry, hair clips, etc., this insect has formed a theme. While it may not always be the butterfly itself as a whole, it could just be its colors. In fact one of the basis art themes introduced to children is that of butterfly painting as it is one cut-out where children can blend any color of their liking and yet the result would be a butterfly on paper.

Taking butterfly one step further into the realm of fashion combing with art is butterfly tattoo designs. Whether it is the permanent tattoos or the temporary stick-on ones or even body paint, tattoo designers enjoy playing with the colors that make the butterfly wings. In fact amongst women it is the most preferred design.

Butterfly tattoo designs come in all sizes and varied color schemes, ranging from two-tones to multicolored. Whether of the permanent type or not they are mainly imprinted on the arm or on the shoulder blade. There are the bolder ones who have butterfly tattoos placed on their neck or ankle if they can bare the pain of the needle-pricked permanent tattoos.

The stick on butterfly tattoos last just a couple of days and can be scrubbed off with the use of acetone or any paint remover, some of them need basic soap and water to disappear. Body painted butterfly tattoos are the least permanent, as with one wash and they are gone.

Whatever, maybe the type of tattoo, a butterfly design always looks the best as one can play with colors which is not possible with any other design.
