Pride Flag Tattoos: A Guide to Placement
Understanding Pride Flag Tattoo Placement
Consider how visible you want your tattoo to be. Public areas like forearms or necks make a bold statement of pride, while more discreet locations like the ribs or ankle can offer personal significance without constant public display.
Visibility & Meaning
The complexity and size of the design will influence placement. Larger flags need space and may suit broader areas like the back or thigh. Smaller flags work well on wrists, ankles, or behind the ear.
