In the past, tattoo lovers were mainly men, who did almost all types of tats in order to get the attention of the opposite sex. Meanwhile, the number of women tattoo doers has grown dramatically. Unfortunately, females are not always right with choosing tattoo styles, and sometimes we can witness a girl wearing a very rude and manly tattoo, which instead of decorating the body, makes it nasty and undesirable. However, among the sensible examples for any girl are the butterfly tattoo designs, which look fine on women of any age.

As a matter of fact, the butterfly symbolizes beauty, peace, love, freedom etc.. Moreover, it describes some changes and transformation, something new and fresh. The best example are the college girls, who do such tattoo when they finish the college or graduate from the University etc. Or the imprisoned people have butterflies tattoos as a freedom sign , when they come out of the prison.

Thus, the butterfly is considered to be an iconic design and is much loved because of the metamorphosis process. Our butterfly tattoos are a record of the process of change and struggle to become what we want to be. They are ladylike and delicate.
