These are a few popular choices in tattoos for men, and great ideas for the year.

Angel Tattoo

The angel has often been a top choice when it comes to tattoos. Not only is it unique, it is one that you can tinker with. You can choose to do angel wings on your back, or create a unique design that is colorful on your arm. It is not only a figure that is easy to decipher, it is also one that has an underlying message behind it, and one that you can create and customize, based on size, color,and location.

Barcode

If you want something unique, a barcode design is one tattoo design that is making a comeback. You can choose to have your birth date tattooed, an anniversary, child’s birth day, or just your favorite numbers tattooed on. Not only does it have a number that is important to you, the barcode design is one that is unique, and is going to look great on areas like the back of your neck, or as a part of an arm sleeve.

Tribal Signs

Tribal signs are always a popular choice in tattoos. If you follow a certain religion, if you are from a region that uses tribal signs, or if you simply like a particular design, these are a few great ideas to choose from. Whether it is a sun design, or a complicated knot, there are a number of ways to create a unique tattoo, and one that is all your own, even though this is one of the most popular design styles for men when it comes to tattoos.

Sun/Moon

A yin-yang design is also a common design. But, a great way to create the balance is the sun and moon. You can choose a blue and red color, or actually opt to have the sun and moon designed, in a balancing manner. The tattoo can be done anywhere, and it can be large or small; you can also choose colors or you can choose a simple black and white design with this style of tattoo as well.

Flaming Dragon

A flaming dragon design is also a popular choice. It can create a base for a whole back tattoo, and can serve as the central piece to a large tattoo you are going to build around. If you are of Chinese decent, it might also hold a dual meaning, as this is a part of this, and the Asian culture. You can also choose from a black and white design, or opt to go with something a little more colorful, if you want a design that truly stands out.

Chinese Dragon

If you want something that is close to your cultural background, this is a great option for certain people. You can create a dual sleeve design on both arms, an entire back tattoo, or you can choose to do something on a smaller scale as well. There are also a few ways you can play with the design, if you want to create a tattoo that is unique, and won’t be found on anyone else.

Text

Your birthday, anniversary date, the dates of your child, or even the name of a significant other. These are all a few ideas you can choose from with a text tattoo. It is something that you can work with other tattoos or it is a style that can stand on its own. You can also have it done on nearly any area of the body, so it is a tattoo that you can hide, if you work in a more conservative office location.

Religious Symbol

A cross, Buddha, or any other religious symbol, are also a few of the common choices to consider if you are planning on getting a new tattoo. Not only is this a tattoo that will hold some kind of significance to the person who is getting it, but it is a tattoo that you can add text to, or other important messages to, if you are an individual who is religious, and want to create some kind of design that is significant to you.

Celtic Knot

A Celtic knot, a cross with a Celtic design, or a simple Celtic colorful symbol, are also a few of the most common designs for men. They either can stand on their own, or you can create a custom piece to add on to another design that you already have in place. This is also a great tattoo option for those who like color, and ornate designs; you can place your favorite colors or symbols on nearly any area of the body.

Nautical Star

The nautical or Northern star is one that sailors hold near and dear to their heart, but it is a very common design when it comes to tattoos over recent years as well. It is a great style, it is a unique look, and it is a star that you can either choose a black and white finish, go with your favorite color, or choose to get multi-colored style when having this tattoo designed as well.

No matter where you are planning on adding the tattoo, what size you want to add, or what colors you love, these are a few great ideas when it comes to choosing a tattoo. Not only are they popular options, these are also a few tattoo designs that you will enjoy for years to come, and they are designs that can hold a special meaning to those who choose to have them designed, when they are planning on getting a new tattoo this coming year.
