Meanings

For some, there does not need to be a meaning behind their tiger tattoos, and they could care less about it. They simply love tigers, which is enough for them to get a tiger tattoo. However, this beautiful beast represents many things that make tiger tattoos even more attractive to many people. A tiger tattoo can represent:

  • Power
  • Pride
  • Passion
  • Skill
  • Stealth
  • Courage
  • Strength
  • Respect
  • Beauty
  • Ferocity
  • Might
  • Majestic
  • Predator

When a person gets a tattoo of a particular animal, they likely identify with that animal’s characteristics, hence their choice.

Placements

As with any tattoo design, you can choose to put your tiger wherever you wish. The size of any tattoo design is the main deciding factor for placements. 

The most common tattoo placements for men are the back, the chest, the bicep, or the hand.  

Placing a tiger tattoo on women can be a bit trickier if they want to keep things more on the feminine side. The most popular places for women to put them are the stomach, hip, back of the shoulder, and the back. 

Designs and Colors

The most apparent coloration for a tiger tattoo is orange with black stripes. Of course, if white tigers are your passion, it would be white with black stripes. However, tattoos are full of creativity, so if you want a pink tiger with purple stripes, go for it!

You can also add certain details, such as making the eyes a specific color. For instance, a white tiger would look stunning with bright blue eyes. An orange tiger would look dazzling with green eyes.

If you want to go for the gold, get a design where the tiger appears to be clawing something, and just below the paw, have some red scratches tattooed!

And let’s not forget about tribal art. This type of tat work can make a tiger look even better than traditional design work!

Tiger tattoos are also popular among movie stars and athletes. Here are some celebrities who got tiger tattoos:

  • Cyndi Lauper has a tiger tattoo on her left ankle.
  • Angelia Jolie has a tiger tattoo on the small of her back.
  • Lucy Lui has a tiger on her lower back as well.
  • Kevin Nash, AKA the Big Sexy from WWE wrestling, has a tiger tattooed on his right shoulder.
