The star symbol is a very popular choice among men and women when it comes to tattoos. With all the different variations of stars and meanings, it only makes sense that they are a great choice for a tattoo. Star tattoos come in a variety of different colors. They can also be designed in a variety of different ways. Stars have captured our eyes and imaginations for centuries. Over the years, stars have been portrayed in astrology and mythology. They have also been used for navigational purposes as well.
One of the main reason men and women choose the star tattoo is for decorative purposes. For women, you often see a different range of colors, from blue to pink and green to yellow. Star tattoos usually come in a variety of different sizes, with some that are big and some that are small. Some star tattoos may have just one star while others may have multiple stars. Many women choose to get star tattoos on their sides. The tattoo design will usually run from the under the arm to the hip area. Another popular spot for women is the ankles, back neck, and the lower back.
Usually, women will choose to get multiple stars in their star tattoo design. It can range from two or three up to twenty. It all depends on the design. For men, they will usually choose a single star. This doesn't mean that they won't have multiple stars though. Just typically, they usually tend to choose one single star. Men often get these types of tattoos on the upper arm. Another popular spot is the chest area or back. Men usually choose two stars on opposite parts of the body. This can also include the elbows, hands, and legs.
Star tattoos can be very colorful and add beauty to the body. But in most tattoos, the star design is often seen with swirls, ribbons, dots, and other displays. In some cases, this adds a look of motion to the star or stars. In other cases, it just adds beauty and mystique to the tattoo.

Unbelievable Tattoos Lyric, very Interesting Hub, I enjoyed your Explanations of the different types of Stars. I've always felt Stars were Lucky, but I've never had a Tattoo.
This was great. Love all sorts of stars - shooting and otherwise. Thanks for the info.
Star tattoos are really beautiful. The history is interesting. I especially liked the one on the foot..Thank you again....
Star tats aren't a fave here but gotta admit some of them are wicked good, like most of the ones you show on here. Variety is the spice of life which goes for star tats as well as anything else. Great series you got going lyric!
I am personally very scared of getting a tattoo myself, so might not actually get one, but I really love the way you have put this hub together. I admire tattoos on other people.
Another wonderful article! I have a pentagram star tattoo on my wrist, and you defined that one really well. Vote up from me.

Interesting hub, I didn't know there were so many different types of stars. I like the meanings behind each star too. That could make a good book.
