It is difficult to imagine such a child who has never done a tattoo for himself in his life. These small stickers are actually an indispensable part of almost every person's childhood, even if when he became an adult he did not start getting permanent tattoos. You can even call it a kind of tradition and the usual order of things. Why do kids love temporary tattoos so much?

Where do baby tattoos come from?
They can be easily found in newsstands, children's stores, chewing gum, magazines, get them for a promotion, in fact, almost everywhere. Moreover, they are quite inexpensive. Children themselves quite successfully buy them and change with each other. Who was a child of the very late USSR and later, he knows very well where and how to take them. There is no secret in this, but the older generations simply were not interested in such things, because by the time they appeared, they had already grown up.
Important. Most importantly, temporary tattoos are absolutely safe for any type of skin and do not cause allergies or irritation even on the delicate skin of children. Also, in order to remove them, you do not need any special tools and devices from which one could experience discomfort or pain, as is the case with permanent tattoos.

How to make them?
Temporary tattoos are of two types and are done in different ways.
- Transferable. They, as already mentioned above, are sold almost anywhere and are available to everyone and in any quantity. They are applied very simply. The protective film is removed from the sticker and applied to the skin. Then the reverse side is moistened with water so that the piece of paper sticks to the body, wait a few minutes and carefully remove it. The drawing remains in place.
- Henna tattoos. They are made not only by children, but also by adults. Plus, compared to the transfer, henna does not wash off longer and tattoos made with it are very similar to real ones. The downside is that you can't just buy them and make them at home, if you don't know how to paint with henna, of course.

Did you know? In India, mihendi are widespread - intricate patterns on the palms and feet, made with black or brown henna. Since ancient times, local women adorned themselves like this. And then this method of temporary tattoo moved to other countries, and soon became known everywhere. Now mihendi can be done in a beauty salon or at almost any festival of whatever. You can also master the art technique of mihendi yourself and decorate yourself at home. Or even start painting to order.

Children's tattoos: meaning
The meaning here is mostly psychological, although in fact children's tattoos are sketches of adults or their copies, so that they convey the meaning of what is depicted on them. But you should not be afraid on this topic, because all the drawings for children are purely positive. Prison, aggressive or sexually directed tattoos designed for children are not even accidentally found in the store, and this is quite logical.
Every child thinks that being an adult is better and more interesting, that they have more freedom, independence and privileges. A tattoo is an attribute of the older generation and is associated with all "non-childish" qualities and capabilities. However, the child may just like to decorate himself in the ways available to him, because gold and diamonds are, again, for adults. And in general, bright colors, glitters and complex patterns naturally cause interest and attract the attention of not only parents, but also peers. It's always nice when you are something different from the others and when you have something to boast about.

How to remove a temporary tattoo? And how to make sure that it does not wash off for a long time?
You don't need to wash them off yourself, because they already stay on the skin for a limited amount of time. For transfers, this is a maximum of a little over a week, and for henna - about two months. But if you urgently need to get rid of the drawing before a business meeting or your child has simply covered himself with all sorts of pictures from head to toe, just rub the tattoo lightly with a wet cloth or washcloth. They cannot withstand such a pressure and leave immediately.
And if you like the tattoo and, on the contrary, would like to extend its life as much as possible, keep it away from water and in no case rub it when you are in the bathroom and when the skin is still not dry. Then, perhaps, the tattoo will delight you or your child for more than a week, and if it is henna, then more than a month, or even more than two.

Where to apply?
In fact, anywhere you think the tattoo looks aesthetically pleasing. Although it is worth noting that in such a place as the lower back and lower back, tattoos in a hundred percent of cases look defiant, and there are no exceptions to this rule. So if you don't want to attract undue attention to yourself and be misunderstood, it is better not to portray anything there. And on a child it will just look funny and not in accordance with age.
I have always loved the Indian style, so mihendi tattoos are just for me. As soon as I found out that such a service appeared in the nearest salon, I immediately began to do them from time to time. You can choose a variety of patterns, even though at first glance they seem similar. There are different styles and techniques of application, different henna colors (more natural red-brown or black). For me, this procedure has become almost like a manicure, new almost every month. I am very glad that I had such an opportunity.
Body painting is a special art form that is fashionable in the modern world. Now, tattoos with the mention of children have gained great popularity. This could be the baby's name, picture, or date of birth. Mothers and fathers, striving to perpetuate the look of their beloved child, choose different designs. Why are tattoos with the names of children so popular and should they be done?
Digital tattoos are considered a simple option, for example, with a date of birth. It is more difficult to fill in the real look or the whole name. Many parents (even men among them) ask to make an imprint of the baby's foot or his palm, evidence of tender and quivering love.
Why do name tattoos?
In salons, masters of body painting ask clients why they chose this or that option and why they generally need a tattoo. Often, clients only talk about beauty and attractiveness or belief in a talisman. If an option is chosen for beauty, then most often it simply does not make sense. But the situation is more complicated with ideological tattoos.
Why do parents choose tattoos with children's names? More often than not, they express love and tenderness for their offspring, pride, and also want to emphasize that the child comes first. This is all, of course, cute and unusual, but it is worth thinking once again whether such a tattoo is really necessary.
Family values \u200b\u200bcan be emphasized in other ways - put a photo of the baby in a wallet, hang his drawings on the wall, install a screensaver on your phone. Don't have to follow unconditionally fashion trends, because a tattoo with the names of children is not the most important way to express love.
Named tattoos - a fashion trend
Modern people try different ways emphasize your attitude towards children, friends, spouses and parents. Often the initial painting with a hidden meaning is done by people from show business, actors and athletes. For example, Beckham and Aguilera, Jolie and Ksyusha Borodin. Fans make these tattoos in honor of their idols.
In general, it is better to do a tattoo deliberately, and not according to the trend of fashion or the example of celebrities. Don't listen to other people's feedback or follow someone else's advice. And even more so do not, for example, do a tattoo with a name on your arm without thinking it over.
Men's tattoos with meaning
Often men come to the salons, who consider family as their main priority. They want to immortalize the appearance of a child and a wife. They often say that certain inscriptions associated with a child always come to mind, because this person is the main thing in life. Unlike women, men choose secret places hidden from people's eyes for personalized and semantic tattoos.
For example, a strong half of humanity chooses such inscriptions: "in the heart forever", "my life". In general, tattoos for men are meaningfully different from women. Men do not just fill in the names of children or initials, they put all their feelings into a simple-looking phrase. Often, following the example of husbands, wives make the same tattoos, and the same inscriptions on spouses look original.
Should you get family-related tattoos?
Before going to the salon of body painting, parents are interested in whether it is possible to get a tattoo mentioning children, whether they affect the future fate of the child. There are no negative sides to this issue. Here the parent must make an independent decision. What if the mention of the baby becomes a sad moment?
The child is alive and well, every day makes parents happy and makes them smile. Of course, in this case, the tattoo will only be a pleasant reminder of the existence of the dearest man in the world. But if a woman asks to get her a tattoo in the shape of a heart with a print of a child's foot inside, then here we are talking about a tragic event. Perhaps there was a miscarriage, the birth of a dead baby or his death. Many people do not understand the meaning of certain tattoos, and ignorance can lead to unpleasant questions. But tattoos for men with meaning or bias in the topic family values can also have a note of sadness in the future if tragic moments in life happen.
Tattoo artists say that women never regret having made tattoos with a mention of their babies, which cannot be said about tattoos associated with the second half. After all, there is no guarantee that the relationship will last a lifetime, but the tattoo will remain.
Which tattoo to choose and where to get it?
If you decide on a tattoo, then think about whether you want to hide it from prying eyes. This issue becomes fundamental in some situations. Even tattoos with the names of children, located on the wrist, can become a reason for refusal of employment, where there is a dress code. A common place for personalized tattoos is the back, less often the arms. It all depends on imagination. There are no prohibitions on tattoos on legs, belly or waist. Some clients ask for the initials of the children to be stamped on the chest
Is there anything to dilute the tattoo with the names of the children? You can pay attention to the portrait image, which is characterized by drawing on the body a sketch of a person's appearance from a photo. But it is quite difficult to find a master capable of such work.
You can get a tattoo with the name and date of birth of the child - a simple and interesting option. Not everyone will understand the meaning of this tattoo, which is good.
Named tattoos on hands look very elegant. A list of several children may be drawn. A tattoo with a name on the arm is suitable for both men and women. For some, a date of birth without a name is enough. However, the meaning of any tattoo will be known only to the wearer, if others do not know anything about him.
Many teenagers try to be different and do their best to stand out from the company. Recently, the fashion for tattoos has become widespread among the younger generation. What should parents do if a child wants to get a tattoo and can children do it?
At what age can children be tattooed?
Modern tattoo parlors claim that best age for tattooing 18-20 years old. At this age, children become adults, are considered quite independent and capable of making responsible decisions. But, if your child is not yet 18 years old, then self-respecting tattoo parlors will refuse him their services without your consent, motivating this with their unwillingness to be responsible in case of problems. But it is not a fact that your child will not turn to semi-legal salons, where the question of sterility remains highly questionable. You need to convey to your child all the disadvantages of this venture.
The fact is that a tattoo done on an incompletely formed body can lose its shape over time. Therefore, the desire to get a tattoo during the period of intensive development of the body can hardly be called a sufficiently deliberate step. In addition, if the tattoo is done by an amateur without special skills, it can lead to serious complications. Also, the paint that the master applies to the skin can cause an allergic reaction and disfigure the teenager for a long time.
How to get a tattoo for children without possible consequences?
If, nevertheless, your child insists on getting a tattoo, offer him alternative options:
If no arguments and beliefs help, then it is better you choose a salon yourself and experienced master... And also, be cunning and set the conditions - what kind of drawing, its size and place of application.
Like any body composition, a tattoo with a child's name has its own characteristics. Before making a tattoo, it is imperative to think over a sketch, choose a style and font, come up with additional attributes, and find a suitable place. In addition, you need to decide whether you will only fill in the initials or the full name. Often the question arises of what language to type a name in. For example, you can consider two variants of the same name - "Julia" and "Julia". Which option suits you best? It is imperative to think it over.
Style
The traditional style is perhaps the most rational choice of genre for a child's name. A huge selection of fonts allows you to find the perfect artistic solution. The good thing about the traditional style is that it blends harmoniously with other genres and compositions. For example, if your body has already "undergone" from ink - you will always find a place for the name of the child, embossed in the traditional style. But you shouldn't limit yourself to the traditional genre. Recently, experiments in the style of minimalism and new school... You can also take inspiration from Odle School or Chicano. Today, there are many interesting sketches of tattoos with the names of children, made in these iconic styles.
Places
Girls and guys tend to choose different places for tattooing. Ideal “female” locations for a tattoo with a child's name:
- Wrist;
- The area near the heart;
- Forearm.
Men's tattoos with the name of a child can be stuffed in places such as:
- Shoulder;
- Wrist;
- Chest;
- Inner side of the forearm.
A tattoo with a child's name is a responsible decision. That is why it is worth considering in detail the future composition and, possibly, supplementing it with some elements. These can be flowers, symbolizing the statement that children are the flowers of life. Also, tattoos with names can be supplemented with baby handprints, hearts, stars, geometric shapes, etc. Some parents from noble families who are not alien to tattoo culture can fill the family coat of arms next to the name of the future heir right on their bodies.
Celebrities
Some celebrities get tattoos with their children's names. Among them:
- Keisha Cole with the Daniel tattoo;
- Draya Michelle with the name of her son "Nathaniel Jr.";
- Barrino's fantasy with the "Zion" tattoo in honor of his daughter;
- Toya Wright with her daughter's name tattooed "Reginae";
- Tori Praver with her child's name "Mahina".
The "Child" tattoo means, first of all, hope, faith in a better future, the fruit of love or love itself, renewal, and on a global scale, the memory of real children, innocence and purity, the need for personal growth, the need for protection.
Child tattoo meaning
Capturing the image of the dearest person in memory of everyone's natural desire. And children grow up quickly, and I want to capture precisely the charming and touching childish features. A tattoo in honor of your children can look like an inscription with a name or date of birth, a child's drawing, a certain symbolic picture or a naturalistic image of a child, a portrait from a photograph.
In any case, such a tattoo will have the meaning of memory, intimacy, the importance of the most precious person in life, its own continuation. This is both evidence of love for a son or daughter, and a great way to capture the most important event in your life, the birth of a child.
A tattoo depicting a child can have many other meanings. The image of a newborn baby in the literal sense can be interpreted as a desire or even a dream to have children. In a broad sense, small children are a symbol of hope and future.
In a deeper sense, it is a symbol of renewal, improvement, new humanity, especially in tattoos with elements of biomechanics. The same meaning is borne by the embryo placed in an incubator flask.
Of particular importance are babies with angel wings, cupids. Cherubim (child-angels) personify spiritual protection, innocence, purity of body and spirit. Cupid is a symbol of unity of hearts, love as a gift from above. A sad Cupid with drooping or damaged wings means the strongest love disappointment.
A smiling, playing, laughing child is always a happy sign, a sign of the right course of things, lightness, a symbol of rewarded love. Crying baby means painful disappointment, longing, the need for protection and help, literally "cry of the soul."
Children have a keen sense of justice. Dividing the world into black and white, they clearly distinguish between good and evil. That is why a tattoo with children's images cannot have dual interpretations. Either a positive or negative message is possible.
Among the prisoners, a female tattoo in the form of a child's head is done in memory of a child left in the wild or in an orphanage, a forced abortion, and a girl riding a stork serves as a sign of a single mother.
The gender of the child depicted on the body also makes sense. A daughter for dad is a reward of fate, and for a mother - hope and a direct look into the future. For his father, a son is a continuer of his work, his ideas, a future ally and assistant in achieving and maintaining well-being.
The boyish image on the female body personifies the desire to nurture the character traits inherent in real men. Conversely, a girl tattoo on male body indicates a desire to become softer, more tolerant, kinder.
Heroic anime-style tattoos depicting children with vivid character traits are designed to endow the owner of the tattoo with certain qualities.
In general, the overwhelming majority of children's images speak of vain troubles, which, in one way or another, lead to joyful events, a new stage in life, a happy period of life. This is the personification of Hope.
