Wolf tattoo for girls: meaning and options for sketches

The meaning and variants of the "Wolf" tattoo sketches for girls are multidirectional and multifaceted. For a long time, images of animals have been used by people as an opportunity to position certain personality traits, to form an attitude towards the world around them, or designate them as a symbol of life priorities. The common misconception about the appropriateness of a wolf tattoo only on a male body does not prevent girls from choosing it almost as often. But this requires taking into account some subtleties and nuances.

The "Wolf" tattoo is another example of a tattoo with an image of an animal, which defies either a narrowly focused or unambiguous interpretation. And not only because this beast in the cultures of different nations is surrounded by an aura of mystery, mysticism and respect, but also thanks to the tattoo artists. An animal tattoo has a deep sacred meaning, which was used by different peoples as a symbol:

• courage and courage, endurance, hunting skills and a sense of belonging to the community of their own kind;
• audacity, cunning, eccentricity of thinking, victory and inevitable achievement of success in what was conceived;
• mystical omniscience, insight, independence and readiness for changes in life;
• the ability to reincarnate and endless loyalty.

The wolf is not a symbol of eternal loneliness. This is a sign of loyalty, leadership, readiness to fight to the last breath for family members, relatives and friends.For a married woman, a tattoo of a she-wolf with wolf cubs is appropriate (they are applied according to the number of children born), a paired tattoo on the arms or shoulder blades (wolf and wolf).

What such a tattoo means for a girl is determined by the symbolism of the image, the chosen style, localization, additional details. Such a tattoo can mean reliability, dexterity, aggressiveness and anger, loyalty, and have a mystical orientation. If on the male body it symbolizes the readiness to defend against an enemy attack, then for the girl it can be a talisman against evil forces, positioning the readiness to love one chosen one and be faithful to him.

A wolf's face with unconventional attributes - flowers, glasses, a crown, a girl in a wolf mask - is nothing more than a tribute to fashion, a desire for shocking, non-standard solutions. Choose your color scheme carefully:

• the white wolf is a symbol of eternal loneliness, and it is not recommended for the female sex;
• red - insolence and cunning;
• the blue wolf is considered the progenitor of the Turkic peoples;
• a multicolor image in modern styles is almost neutral, has no particular restrictions;
• a black and white wolf with red eyes symbolizes dark forces, the ability to transform into an evil and kind (werewolf).

A tattoo of a dangerous predator can be performed in a variety of style directions, in full or in part, and sometimes even in the form of a detail - an eye, a wolf's paw print.

It is not customary to dictate any preferences in the style of the image, therefore, when choosing a sketch, you should focus more on symbols and attributes, location and color scheme.

• White the wolf symbolizes the desire for loneliness, although there are other interpretation options - a bright, extraordinary personality, a person capable of penetrating into any community, but this is not entirely correct understanding of the image.

• Depicting a wolf's grin on his body, a man demonstrates his readiness to repel any attack... Here, the symbol is cruelty and rage, which are inherent in him latently. Women's variants of such a tattoo are not welcome, as in the case when a sketch of a drawing with a predatory animal is selected.

• Wolf with three eyes denotes insight, wisdom, the ability to see hidden danger.

• Wolf mark on a man's chest or shoulder is considered a sign of power, self-confidence, inevitability in achieving goals. The image on the female body could be interpreted in approximately the same way, if there was no tendency to portray it on the lower back or leg.

• Wolf girl or woman in beast mask is considered an indication of the qualities of the beast in her nature, but not always negative. Depending on the nature of the image, they can indicate determination or indomitability, independence or pride, inner independence or a desire to start a family, and a willingness to protect it with all our might.

She-wolf, with wolf or cubs, whole family, a female wolf with flowers and attributes unconventional for a predator, whatever the tattoo masters who offer such sketches for application may say, these are family values. The she-wolf in many cultures has become a symbol of dedication and devotion, the willingness to protect the young to the last drop of blood.Unlike other animals, a sense of family, choosing a mate for life, caring for children is characteristic of representatives of this species.

Many publications talk about the expansion of the meaning inherent in popular tattoos, the possibilities of their application in different places, the use of additional attributes that give them sacred or primitive symbolism. Now the image of a formidable predator can be mystical and otherworldly (a werewolf or a beast with three eyes, a predator with a dream catcher), symbolize greatness and wisdom, talk about the desire to dominate the community or keep family values.

A small tattoo will look good on your hand - a paw, a wolf's head, a figure howling at the moon:

• on the wrist it is also better to choose a miniature image, although there are beautiful examples when the area near the wrist is used for a picture in a geometric or realistic style;
• on two hands or on the shoulder blades, a pictorial paired image is traditionally used - a she-wolf and a wolf;
• on the back, you can place a predator against the background of a forest, a werewolf under the Moon or a whole wolf family;
• on the hip, a portrait of an animal, made in a realistic style or in any other style, looks great - the image is hidden from prying eyes, so any pictorial details are used - flowers in wool, glasses or a baseball cap, an unusual hairstyle, a full-length figure;
• The choice of a tattoo for placement on the shoulder is not limited by space or conventions, and the only thing that needs to be excluded is male attributes, although there are no longer any options left on the shoulder and neck that would be taboo for brave girls.

On the leg, it is advised to choose an elongated vertical image, but there are no restrictions on the number of figures in the composition, background, paraphernalia - from a howling wolf to a she-wolf in a flower wreath.

The above options are only a small part of the solutions invented by real masters. They are drawn by professional artists, but invented by people who have decided what exactly they would like to capture on their bodies, what to communicate to others.

Nothing prevents a girl, who has already decided on her priorities, to choose a drawing from an extensive catalog or to show her own ego, thinking over and realizing the symbolism of an ambiguous image.

Depending on the importance attached to the selected image by the owner of the tattoo, the choice of localization may also change. Size, composition, color scheme are also important.

For a multi-figured tattoo or one with a noticeable background, a large space is suitable - the back, abdomen and chest, shoulder and forearm, a woman's thigh.

The unlimited choice of options means great opportunities for self-expression.

Such compositions are not inferior in expressiveness to the previously considered proposals.
