Tattoos For Girls On Hand
As more and more workplaces begin to accept visible hand tattoos, the popularity of hand tattoos has skyrocketed. They can be big and bold, covering the entire backs or palms of the hand, or small and simple hiding on the side of a finger. A skilled tattoo artist can work miracles on the small canvas that is the hand or fingers – injecting colour or a classic monochrome palette, creating an intricate and eye-catching design, and utilising your preferred tattoo style, be it traditional, watercolour, or new school. If you have been thinking about getting a new tattoo, get some inspiration with some of our favourite hand tattoos for women.
1Fern Frond Tattoo
The fern frond tattoo has really increased in popularity over the last few years and it is not hard to see why. This design has been perfectly placed to wrap around the thumb – simple and beautiful.
2Dot Work Mandala Tattoo
Dot work tattoos involve creating an entire design, including shading, using just black dots. This Mandala design across the back of the hand and wrist is so intricate and beautiful, don’t you think?
3Breathe Hand Tattoo
In such a hectic and stressful world, sometimes you need a reminder to just take a moment for yourself and ‘Breathe’. This gorgeous little tattoo will always serve as a reminder to take a deep breath when things feel difficult or overwhelming.
4Zodiac-Inspired Libra Tattoo
There are so many great Zodiac-inspired hand tattoos, like this Libra one, which is placed perfectly along the side of the thumb. Beautiful!
5Photo-Realism Lion Tattoo
You might be thinking the hand is too small a space for a quality photo-realism tattoo, but you would be wrong. This lion fits on the back of he hand beautifully and the monochrome palette with the pop of blue in the eye is stunning!

If you are a fan of more subtle tattoos, you might just fall in love with this delicate black and grey bow tattoo on the ring finger. Super sweet and easy to cover up if needed.
7New School Raccoon Tattoo On Hand
New School tattoos are full of colour and cartoon-like designs and this raccoon hand tattoo is the perfect example. Super eye-catching with the surrounding crystal and leaf details.
8Coiled Snake Tattoo
The snake is such a popular tattoo design and this traditional version on the hand is timeless and cool. A small amount of shading has created the recognisable coil shape and gives a 3-D effect.
9Lotus Tattoo on the Palm
I love the simplicity of this outline lotus tattoo. The bold thick black lines really stand out against the pale skin of the palm. Loving the placement too.
10Bold Colour Rose Hand Tattoo
The design of this rose tattoo is incredibly clever, with the flower on the back of the hand and the stem and leaves spread out over the fingers. The dark and deep colours are to die for.
11Traditional Woman Hand Tattoo
The traditional design and colours of this crying woman tattoo are beautiful. The highlights on the lips and eyelids really brings the tattoo to life.
12Angel Wings Finger Tattoo
These tiny angel wings are so pretty and could serve as a beautiful dedication for a lost loved one, a way that they can always be with you. So beautiful.
13Kooky New School Cat Astronaut
How fun is this new school astronaut cat tattoo? Super cute and colourful, with a pretty floral boarder, this tattoo has so much life and personality. Look at those eyes!
14Watercolor Feather Hand Tattoo
The watercolour pinks and red blended behind the outline of the feather has created such a soft tattoo that is feminine and beautiful. The placement along the index finger is slightly unusual, which really makes the tattoo stand out.
15X-Ray Style Skeleton Tattoo
Definitely not a tattoo for the faint-hearted, this hand tattoo creates an X-ray effect of all the bones in the hand being visible. Although the design is pretty dark, there is definitely a softness to it that contrasts perfectly with the strong image.

As you can see there is so much variety in hand tattoos for girls. From the barely there tattoos to the big and bold tattoos, there is something to suit every taste.
You may be desperate for a tattoo on the hand, but there are still some workplaces that don’t approve of visible tattoos. Luckily there are a number of concealers and foundations that have been developed that can cover visible tattoos whilst you are at work, so you can have them on the show any other time. Furthermore, if you have some time off work, you could try out a henna hand tattoo. They usually last around 2 to 3 weeks and it may help you decide it a hand tattoo is definitely for you.
So, if you are thinking about taking the plunge with a hand tattoo, get in touch with your favourite tattoo artist and discuss designs and colours. As the hand tattoo is something that you will always see, make sure it is a design that you really love, don’t just pick the first design that you think is ‘kinda cute’. Even better, choose a design that has a personal meaning to you – but perhaps not a partner’s name, that rarely ends well.
If you have a beautiful hand tattoo that you love, why not share it in the comments? You may just inspire someone.
