That said, first-timers should know that collarbone tattoos tend to be a bit higher up on the pain spectrum. So, if you’re considering getting a collarbone tattoo, be aware that while they can look stunning, they can be quite painful to get.

Best Clavicle Tattoo Placement Ideas And Suggestions

When it comes to placement, people can choose a range of locations on their collarbone areas.

For instance, some people will get a clavicle tattoo just on a single shoulder. Whereas, others might get symmetrical, matching tattoos on both shoulders. And still others might get a full chest piece that covers both shoulders, their collarbones, and a portion of their chest.

Having a tattoo centered on the chest or collarbone is another popular choice, which allows for further additions to the piece on either side over time.

Women’s Clavicle Tattoo Ideas

There are no hard or fast rules about what type of design or styles a woman has to get for her clavicle tattoo. But women often do choose softer styles and more feminine designs with more color and intricate details compared to men.

One great example and common design idea for a woman’s collarbone tattoo is large floral designs, which might include a variety of flowers, like daisies, lotus flowers, or even roses in full bloom.

A design like this can look great if symmetrical. But you could also have it done asymmetrically to create a bit more of a flow to the design. An asymmetrical design can work particularly well if you have other chest or shoulder pieces that you want the new piece to “flow” into.

A few other common collarbone tattoo ideas for women might include moons, butterflies, hummingbirds, hearts, mountains, stars, or other nature-theme designs.

Men’s Clavicle Tattoo Ideas

Men often go for bolder, larger collarbone tattoo designs, which may include different types of geometric shapes or patterns, bio-mechanical themes, snake collarbone tattoos, etc.

However, men will often get designs that flow away from the clavicle and onto the neck, shoulders, and arms.

That said, there are no limits as to what a man can choose for their collarbone body art. So if you’re still looking for men’s clavicle tattoo ideas, make sure to browse our AI-generated tattoo gallery, talk to tattoo artists and other tattoo fans, or search online for inspiration.

Clavicle Tattoo Meanings And Symbolism

People often attach themes of personal evolution and personal growth to their tattoos. But you’re free to give your tattoo whatever meaning or symbolism you feel is important to you.

As seen in our eye-catching snakes, angel wings, and flower collarbone tattoos are just a few popular choices.

As for their meaning, often snakes symbolize transformation, angel wings might symbolize the wearer’s love and affection for somebody that has passed, and flowers can often have different meanings depending on their species and color.

So either way, whether you choose a simple collarbone tattoo or something more intricate for your next ink fix, just be sure to make a meaningful choice that will allow you to make a bold statement about your self-expression and who you are as an individual!
