Getting a tattoo on your body or getting 'inked' as they say now, is not an easy decision. You cannot be impulsive about getting tattoos. You need to analyse and visualise how a tattoo will look on your body. Just because you like some celebrity tattoos does not mean that a similar design will suit you. 17 July is National Tattoo Day and you can celebrate this day by getting inked!

There are 2 aspects to a tattoo. The first one is the design and the second is the place on your body where the tattoo will be done. Making the right choice for both these aspects is very important. Some of the celebrities have tattoos placed very strategically. For example, Saif Ali Khan has a tattoo on his arm that says 'Kareena' in Hindi. It is very clearly visible and also sends a message.

David Beckham is famous for his back tattoo that shows a rising phoenix. Even Mandira Bedi has got a tattoo on her back, just under her shoulder blade. These tattoos flaunt your body when you go for backless or razor cut outfits. Many celebrities have tattoos on their cleavage or their ankle. These are also very hot places to get your body tattooed.

So after careful consideration, we have selected the 10 best spots on your body for getting tattoos.

Behind The Neck

Deepika might not be with Ranbir Kapoor any more, but the tattoo with his initials still looks rocking on her. You too can flaunt a neck tattoo by tie your hair up in a pony or a bun.

On The Shoulder Blade

Mandira Bedi has got a hot new tattoo on her shoulder blade. This artistically written 'om' looks hot when Mandira sports backless outfits.

Lower Back

The recent addition to the tattoo brigade in Bollywood is Anushka Sharma's 'Dekho Magar Pyar Se' siren. This type of tattoo looks best just on the hip joint. You can flaunt this tattoo by wearing low waist jeans or shorts.

Upper Arm

There are many types of tattoos that you can get on your upper arm. Angelina Jolie has inked her children's birth dates on her upper arm. It looks awesome with Gothic makeup and sleeveless outfits.

Forearm

Johnny Debb has several tattoos. But this one on his forearm that says 'Jack' (the name of his son) and has a sparrow above it to allude to his Pirates character 'Captain Jack Sparrow'. We can only see it when Johnny Depp folds up his sleeves.

Biceps

If you have biceps that are worth showing, then you can get yourself inked on your muscles like Saif Ali Khan.

Arm Band

Even for women who don't find heavy upper arms flattering, the chain or ring design is a good option. Pamela Anderson carries her wreath design quite elegantly.

Ankle

Ankle tattoos came into fashion after Penelope Cruz had '883' inked on her ankle. She refused to reveal what it means and hence got into a lot of controversies. Ankle tattoos are sleek and look cute with the right kind of shoes.

Navel

A tattoo just around your navel is the epitome of hotness. The best part is that it looks great even with Indian outfits like sarees and lehengas.

Chest

Your chest has a lot of space for elaborate tattoos and it need not be seen all the time. So if you want a big and fancy tattoo like Sylvester Stallone, get it on your chest. He has tattooed his wife's face surrounded by 3 roses on his chest.
