Outer Collarbone
Outer collarbones are great for tattoos because they are an area that is the least exposed to the sun. It’s also an area that is less likely to stretch as you age.
Outer collarbones are a great place for tattoos because the area is not exposed to the sun as much as other parts of the body. This helps to ensure that the tattoo will not fade as quickly due to sun exposure. Additionally, the area is less likely to stretch and distort over time due to changes in body shape. The skin in this area is also relatively thin, allowing for a sharper and more detailed tattoo. Lastly, the collarbone is a visible area, so a tattoo in this area can be easily seen by others.

Inner Arm
Another place on the body that is less exposed to the sun. The inner arm keeps your tattoo out of the sun so that it isn’t constantly damaged by the UV rays which has the potential to break down the ink.

Back
An area that is often covered up by clothing for protection, and also a nice big canvas for an artist to be able to produce something really amazing and detailed.

Upper Thigh
Upper thighs get plenty of protection from the sun, and they are usually one of the thicker, fleshier parts of your body which means that you won’t experience too much intense pain when getting it done, even if it’s a big one.

Hairline
A tattoo that is placed right below your hairline on your neck will stay looking newer and fresher for longer because it won’t experience too much sun exposure. And if you grow your hair out, it’s a cool place to have a secret tat!

If you would take, you must first give, this is the beginning of intelligence.
Upper Ribcage
Even if you get pregnant, the upper ribcage is an area on your body that won’t stretch too badly when you carrying. This might be something worth thinking about if you want to be a mum at some point.

Calves
Calves are an area of your body that don’t tend to be affected too much by the aging process. You won’t experience any sagging in that area, so your tattoo will stay in shape.
