Dragon tattoo for girls

Few people know that people put tattoos on the body thousands of years ago. Researchers found this out after finding patterns on mummified skin. Man at all times tried to change his appearance and improve it. The art of tattoos has come to us since ancient times, and anyone can apply a unique pattern to the body that will emphasize the character of its wearer.

One of the popular tattoos among guys and girls is "Dragon" - either they were inspired after watching the movie "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", where the main character Lisbeth had a tattoo with this mythical creature on her back, or it emphasizes their strong and even caustic character. Agree, it is difficult to imagine a romance with a dragon tattoo, although this also happens. Let's try to figure out what this tattoo means and where it is best to apply it.

Dragon tattoo is especially popular in America, Asia and Europe. In mythology, this fantastic creature is shrouded in mysticism and mysteries - dragons are found in all human legends among all peoples of the world. Today, many girls and guys are tempted to stuff a bulky lizard on their backs, which they certainly don't want to hide under their clothes. The dragon is an oriental animal that came to us from Japan.

First of all, the dragon means fortitude, mystery, nobility and something mythical. The meaning of such a tattoo is to emphasize your strong character and show your individuality. Stubborn people love to fill the dragon, those for whom loyalty is not an empty word. In Chinese culture, the dragon is credited with tremendous capabilities - so much so that it is subject to reincarnation.

It should be noted that the meaning of the "Dragon" tattoo is slightly different in different nations - in Russia this creature in the form of the Serpent-Gorynych was considered vile and dangerous, among the celtic peoples aboutperson personified the wisdom of life and the rigidity of character, and in Japan - strength and guardianship. Many emperors considered it an honor to have even a small symbolism of a dragon on their clothes as a sign of greatness.

The "Dragon" tattoo for men and women can be filled in a variety of styles and colors. As a rule, the dragon is stuffed in bright colors (rarely monochromatic) to demonstrate all its grace and beauty. Colored tattoos for women and men can tell a lot, since each color symbolizes something:

• black - respect;
• gold - wisdom;
• blue - appeasement;
• yellow - victory;
• red - hostility (or passion);
• dark green - courage.

To understand which dragon to fill, it is advisable to study what this or that pose symbolizes. If the dragon has an open mouth, spread its wings (as if it is about to take off) and released claws - this means that a person seeks to become a leader and wants to subjugate others. If the wearer applied to the dragon's body in a calm state (for example, he is sleeping or sitting peacefully) - this may mean that he is in harmony with himself.

The dragon, whose wings are pressed to the body, and the mouth is closed, personifies a wise man, and if the animal rushes up (or is in flight), this indicates that its carrier is open to the world and seeks to conquer the peaks in its field. If the dragon rushes down, it means that the person hides aggression in himself.

Quite often, the dragon is depicted on the back, and quite often it is accompanied by another powerful animal - the tiger. They can be applied at the same level and of the same size - this will characterize you as a balanced person, someone who has found harmony in yourself and with the world. Another interesting Chinese tattoo idea is a tiger defeated by a dragon. This will mean that you support the idea of ​​the victory of good over evil.

Minimalism won the hearts of many young people due to its simplicity, brevity and lack of pretentiousness. A small dragon can be applied to an arm, shoulder or leg - the part of the body on which it will be visible. There are quite a few styles, it all depends on what is closer to you.

Traditionally, the winning options for the execution of a mythical animal are oriental and minimalism... Among young people, cartoon tattoos are also common, for example, the dragon from the cartoon "Spirited Away".

At all times, the powerful winged dragon was popular, and in Japan there is a special attitude towards him, bordering on reverence. After the release of the Swedish painting "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", interest in the mythological creature only intensified, and today many young people make various subjects on their backs. By the way, in the film, Lisbeth's tattoo is made in the style of realism - the dragon shows an aggressive face and "scratches" its mistress from the inside.

Depending on the size of the tattoo, you can get the dragon filled wherever you want. The lizard is great for pricking:

• On the hand;
• on the side;
• on the back;
• on the thigh;
• on the foot;
• on the shoulder;
• on the ribs;
• on the shoulder blade.

A small dragon will look beautiful on the neck, wrist and collarbone. Don't assume that such a tattoo has to be big. It really depends on your personal preference. If you are not planning a plot tattoo, then the little dragon will perfectly fit on lower back, forearm or ankle... Most often, a mythical animal is pricked on back, much less often on belly... The large and flat area on the body allows for a full-fledged plot. In addition, the back is an area that does not change much with age, and therefore the tattoo will not look ridiculous under the formed folds.

If you decide to pin a dragon on the calf or foot, the best solution is to make the animal in the Chinese style.... This style is characterized by smooth lines, and the outline is painted over only slightly. When choosing a place for a tattoo, consider your lifestyle and place of residence - if you work in a serious office, it is very important to ensure that the tattoo is hidden, and if you are a programmer, the dragon will only benefit you, emphasizing the originality of thinking.

• The voluminous dragon on the thigh looks very nice - if you go to the beach in a swimsuit, people around you will not take their eyes off you. A tattoo made in black ink, combined with a delicate swimsuit with polka dots or a flower, will look especially interesting. In the photo you can see beautiful examples of tattoos made on different parts of the body: arm, chest, back, etc.
