Tattoos are considered as expressions of feelings and emotions, thus one of the most famous designs that have been around for generations is the heart tattoo. There are various heart illustrations that dominated the tattoo world since time immemorial. These designs are both appealing to the male and female tattoo lovers.

Some heart designs would bear the name of a loved one in the middle. This manifests the deep appreciation for the person and would like to keep a lasting remembrance of the person. Red is the color that highlights the image. So there are contrasting shades of red that would create the effect of depth and realness to the final effect. There are those also that do not bear any text or word images instead there are chains of thorny wires drawn around the heart. This illustration is similar to a Romeo and Juliet theme to where there is tragedy involved. It may also signify a captive heart that would mean that the person having this kind of design is already committed to someone or something. A bleeding heart is also one of the many heart designs. The way they usually present this is quite literal. There is a heart drawn with a spill of blood on it. This is quite interesting yet bizarre to look at.

Other noted heart designs are the simple heart shape that is one dimensional. It may appear as a funky and trendy style that is appealing to the younger generation. A chain of small flowers to form a heart-shaped image is also desired by female teens. These small flowers can also be replaced by letters to form the name of a person yet taking the form of a heart.

Heart designs are truly one classic style. Depending on the concept, it can appeal to both gender of any generation. The look does not fade as years go by; instead it still is a trendy design. Since it is mostly related to amorous feelings, the common names that are placed near the drawings are those of their loved ones. It serves as a lasting reminder of their sentiments to a person.
