Star tattoo designs are very versatile and can be combined with a variety of other designs elements such as angel wings, crosses, tribal designs, the sun and moon. You can with some imagination produce a truly unique tattoo design.

Star tattoo designs can be placed anywhere on the body. According to many tattooists they have become very popular with females as tattoos have become more trendy. When asked, people say the reasoning behind getting them seems to be because the Star expresses their inner desire to be a star and they generally look cool.

What ever magazine, newspaper or entertainment TV channel you watch these days you see a pop star, movie star or sports star showing off their tattoos as the cameras are rolling. Stars such as Robbie Williams, Angelina Jolie, and David Beckham are renowned for the numerous tattoos that they have over their bodies. Perhaps it is these iconic stars that are setting the trends of popular culture that feeds into this desire that makes people go out and get inked.

Getting back to star tattoos a variation is the shooting star. They can again symbolize many things to an individual that has one. It may represent them reaching their ultimate destiny or achieving something momentous in life. What better way to mark that point than with a tattoo.

Shooting stars have fascinated humans every since they were first seen in the night sky. Some cultures have beliefs and superstitions in the meaning of shooting stars. Traditionally shooting stars were thought to indicate a new birth or changes in an individuals life. Ever since I was a child I was told that I should make a wish when ever I saw a shooting star hence the saying “wish upon a shooting star”. These beliefs, superstitions and traditions can be the catalyst that push people toward the star as their choice for a tattoo.

Star or shooting star tattoo designs can be created to be as discreet or visible as you want to make them. This is I think is one of the contributing factors amongst others that has lead to the Star tattoo popularity.
