1. Bird & Flowers Lower Back Tattoos
Lower back tattoos are naturally considered a sexy location, they are also considered somewhat naughty. A bird tattoo with flowers and initials can represent someone you’ve lost, a current lover, or someone you admire. Birds are always a great idea for a single tattoo or to incorporate into a design. Representing freedom, expression, independence, and happiness, you can never go wrong with a bird.
As for initials as part of your back tattoo, sure if it is someone you lost, I totally get it, but someone you love? Just be sure that it is a sure thing and don’t rush out prematurely to get your back tattoo! Remember tattoos are on your body for life!
Don’t get me wrong, there are many incredible tattoo artists that can redo tattoos if your relationship goes bad and you need those initials changed, but let’s not even go there!
2. Black Symbol Back Tattoos
You can never go too far wrong with keeping things simple when it comes to getting back tattoos. A simple black ink and a custom symbol or pattern are powerful. There is so much power in simplicity and the great thing about a symbol as a back tattoo is only you know what it really means, cheeky hey?
3. Abstract Cat Back Tattoos
Speaking of simplicity with a touch of abstract or pattern art incorporated into your back tattoo, this is it. Simple, subtle and sexy. To those animal lovers out there, how about a tribute to your current or past pet? Sure it can be simple, but with skills of many professional tattoo artists, just send them a photo and let them work magic on your skin.

5. Simple Paper Crane Back Tattoos
Well, this is a borderline shoulder tattoo, but let’s just say it is a back tattoo as it is so cute! Paper cranes, like all tattoos, appear in trends, I love these little ones. They represent strength, success, happiness, and good fortune in the Japanese culture, that aside, they look great. There is something very soothing about cranes, as for making one out of paper, absolutely no idea.
6. Goddess Back Tattoos
There is always room for a goddess in our lives, perhaps you are one yourself, so get a goddess back tattoo and flaunt it. Goddess of good or goddess of evil, a great thing about tattoos or any type of art is that it is open for interpretation. What does this tattoo mean to you? That is really all that matters. Potentially draw your own? Do it!
7. Angel Wings Back Tattoos
Small or large, an angel wing back tattoo design can look incredible, many people relate to angels, what they represent, and the energy they bring. Religious or not, an angel can be your protector, offer you guidance or remind you of someone you have lost.
Never judge, there can be a lot of meaning linked to someone’s back tattoos.
8. Colorful Koi Back Tattoos
Boom, black against orange always stands out and is an incredible contrast. Koi are not just a wise old fish seen in Japanese ponds swimming over coins, no Sir. Koi back tattoos often stand for struggle and show the strength in overcoming large obstacles in life.
There is often more than meets the eye with a Koi represented in a tattoo.
9. Sanskrit Back Tattoos
Sanskrit is an ancient language of India, it is powerful, mysterious, and perfect for back tattoos, in this case straight down the spine. Sanskrit is common for many reasons, including its power, its design, and also the private, code-like benefits of it.
You can a private message that is meaningful and have it there as a secret for you and you only. Well, unless the person next to you on the train can read Sanskrit that is.
