Henna tattoos are extremely popular for summer: this is a great way to rock a cool tattoo or several ones and accentuate the sexy parts of your body. This is a cool way to try wearing a tattoo, which you have always wanted but didn’t dare to make. A henna tattoo will disappear in 2-3 weeks depending on your type of skin, amount of sun and sea water you get and some other factors.
The most popular placements for henna tattoos are hands, fingers, wrists and arms because these tattoos mostly have a traditional design, which is applied on the hands and feet of brides in some Asian countries. Today I’d like to share some of the coolest ideas for wrist tattoos – some of them are inspired by traditional designs, others are more modern.
Traditional-Inspired Henna Designs
Traditional bridal hennas look stunning! I can’t imagine a more girlish tattoo, to be honest. These delicate lacey patterns with flowers, hearts and just swirls look amazing and highlight your beautiful hands. Such tattoos usually cover hands, go up to fingers and down to wrists and maybe arms – here everything is up to you. The designs on both hands can be different for a more eye-catchy effect. Also try half mandalas or even whole mandalas on your wrists, this is pure philosophy and harmony.
