Wrist Tattoos

About Wrist Tattoos

The wrist is a popular spot for small, delicate, personal tattoos — meaningful enough to keep close and visible enough to glance at all day. A favorite for first tattoos and quiet, personal pieces.

• Small, contoured area — best for compact, simple, flowing designs
• Inner wrist is intimate but more sensitive and slightly faster to fade; outer/side is more durable
• Moderate pain (thin-skinned, near the bone), but small size keeps sessions brief
• On fairly constant display and not easily concealed
• Fine-line, micro, lettering and small symbols all suit it — choose a clean small-scale hand
