Most women like to get their tattoos on places that are provocative, yet not so obvious, like the inside of an ankle or at the small of the back. While I’ve seen some lovely tattoos in those areas, it can also look so common and done to death. Another area for consideration when looking for a discreet (or not) place on your body to ink is the chest.
Here are 10 types of breast tattoo designs that you could use as inspiration for your own tattoo.
1. Mandala Under Breast Tattoo

Mandala is a complex abstract design that is usually circular in form. Circular designs symbolize the notion that life is never ending. Intricate mandala designs create beautiful tattoos.
2. Side Boob Tattoo
When the side of the breasts are uncovered, it is known as side cleavage or side boob. A simple tattoo in this area can look very sexy, trendy and tasteful.
3. Around Nipple Tattoo
Nipple tattoos for women is a relatively new concept. It was first used in breast reconstruction procedures after a mastectomy. However, soon after people started getting more creative with these tattoos by giving them an artistic touch.
4. Mastectomy Tattoo
Breast cancer survivors who have had mastectomies can use tattoos for scar coverage, nipple replacement and use this artistic form of expression to reclaim what cancer has taken from them.
5. Quote Tattoo
A quote for a tattoo design can be meaningful to you as well as beautiful to look at. Consider the length of the amount of space available for the tattoo. It is also important to pick out a suitable font. I personally love a handwritten cursive.
6. Full Breast Tattoo

Only for the very confident and very brave, this type of tattoo is a whole art piece and will change your look quite drastically (either for the better or worse… so choose your design and tattoo artist carefully).
7. Top of Chest Tattoo

This type of tattoo doesn’t actually cover the breasts but it skims the upper part of your breasts.
8. Between Breast Tattoo

This type of tattoo lies right between your cleavage.
9. One Word Tattoo
Instead of a full quote, some people prefer using just one word which can have just the same, if not bigger, impact than a quote.
10. One Boob Tattoo
Perhaps one of the most trendy tattoos of the moment is the geometric tattoo. I’ve seen many great designs on other parts of the body, so why not have on your chest.
