Placement guide

Upper Arm / Bicep tattoos

The classic canvas. Easily covered by a t-shirt sleeve, ages well because the skin is stable, and gives designs a gentle wrap around the muscle.

The honest notes

Pain

Low on the outer arm; the inner bicep is noticeably sharper.

Size & sessions

10–18cm; leave room to grow into a half-sleeve later.
