Even though women are certainly not at a loss when it comes to finding the perfect placement for a tattoo, the lower back area is thought to be one of the most sexy and erotic locations. Besides being sensual, lower back tattoos also have another benefit as they're very easy to cover up when need be, ideal for those who work in a professional setting or aren't allowed to have tattoos visible. Unlike the arms or other areas of the body, the skin on the very bottom of the back can be completely concealed by clothing, allowing you to make the tattoo visible only when you choose.
The versatility behind lower back tattoos has undoubtedly helped to boost their popularity in the mainstream public as well as increase their allure. When a female tells someone, particularly a male, that she has one or more lower back tattoos, the mind can't help but wander thanks to the mystique and sheer appeal of them. In most cases, this type of tattoo is done near the waistline, and sometimes most of it will be hidden "below the belt" with just a small portion peeking out, making it possible for it to be kept a secret.
