You don’t really need to hear us go into the symbolism of a rose tattoo. Love, passion, and a close relationship all apply, as do a number of other meanings. Instead, deciding on placement has been a thorn in your side thus far. A bushel of roses is less challenging, but one on its own is a different story.
Where to get a rose tattoo, you ask? Having done a large number of these designs at our downtown Vancouver BC studio we have many examples to draw placement ideas from. We have handpicked a few from our Instragm profile (@soh_vancouver) that you may find helpful in your deliberation. Let’s have a look!
BODY PLACEMENT IDEAS FOR YOUR UPCOMING SINGLE ROSE TATTOO
Neck-t0-Behind the Ear
Even critics of neck tattoos can’t argue against this placement of the world’s most adored flower. It’s stem rises from the stem of your neck and tucks delicately behind the ear with perfection.
Inner Bicep
Flex your affinity for love (or whatever a rose means to you) by getting it placed on the inner side of the bicep muscle.

Along the Curve of the Lower Breast/Chest
Have the design bend the stem so that follows the natural curve of the lower breast or chest along the upper ribcage. This subtle placement works great in the fine-line tattoo style.

On the Hand
Another great place for a fine-line version is on the hand. When you greet someone with a shake of the hand, fist bump, or caress of the shoulder (depending on how you feel about them) you will extend this symbol of affection to them. It will make quite the impression.

Forearm
Given the shape and length, you really can’t go wrong with the forearm. Furthermore, this placement allows you to show off the impressive result for all to see.
