Getting a shoulder tattoo is a little more bold than having one on the ankle or somewhere else. A shoulder tattoo, even if it's very cute, shows that the woman with it has confidence in herself. With men it's all about looking macho, but a woman having one is empowering and shows that she is not afraid to be herself, even if it's a little out of the norm. Even when the shoulder tattoo is covered up, whether for work or a social gathering, it is still on her body and the confidence having a shoulder tattoo is still reflected in how she acts. When the shoulder tattoo design is on display, it looks beautiful. The shoulder looks beautiful on its own, but a beautiful and well-placed ink can make it look that much better.
