About Back Tattoos
The back is the largest single canvas the body offers — the placement of choice for ambitious, detailed, large-scale work, from a striking standalone piece to a composition spanning the whole back.
- So much uninterrupted space lets designs breathe and tell a full story
- Home for epic subjects — Japanese back pieces, mythological scenes, ornamental work
- Comparatively forgiving on pain; spine, shoulder blades and lower back are more sensitive
- You can't easily see it yourself — artist selection matters for ambitious work
- Excellent longevity: well protected from friction, holds detail for decades
