When it comes to canvas space for a tattoo, there is nary a better part of the body as the “glutes”. The gluteus maximus is the most superficial (closer to the surface of the body) and largest of the three muscles and make up the bulk of the shape and form of the buttocks. The space allows for creativity in subject and design, and the end result can be as visible or private as you want it to be. As someone looking for a place to get a bum / butt tattoo in Vancouver you have landed here at Adrenaline VanCity, With multiple locations in the city you can book your initial consultation at a shop most convenient for you. Otherwise, read ahead first for more helpful information.
What to Know About Getting a Backside, Bum, and Butt Tattoo in Vancouver BC
Does a Butt Tattoo Hurt?
The buttocks are made of fat and the gluteal muscles. The fat is comparatively substantial against all other parts of the body thanks to us humans evolving to sit on our rears through the bulk of our lives. And as addressed in the introduction, the muscle that is closest to the surface of the skin – the gluteus maximus – is also the largest. Together this all means that a bum tattoo is one of the least painful parts of the body to get inked. It all depends upon one’s threshold for pain of course, but this knowledge puts first-timers at ease.
Bum Tattoo Ideas and Concepts
- Large florals (especially in the Asian traditional style)
- Japanese style dragons, koi fish, and snakes
- Tantric patterns
- Large script
Ultimately, there are no rules. It’s your butt and do what you want with it. You can get any subject done in a variety of tattoo styles that our Vancouver studios specialize in. This includes everything from color-realism and blackwork to traditional and neo-traditional styles and more. Check out the collage below for examples of backside tattoos that were recently completed by our tattooists, then view artist bios and links to their Instagram portfolios by following this link.
As an alternative to a tattoo of some other subject on the rear, consider something cheeky (pun fully intended) as in a design used to not-so-subtly symbolize a particularly curvy backside, such as this pair (also done at Adrenaline):
