Breast Cancer Ribbon Shaped Tattoos

By Agripina Nuss


Breast cancer tattoos are usually placed over mastectomy scars to help launch new worldwide campaigns to raise breast cancer awareness. Some breast cancer victims go to the extent of finding volunteers for the staging photo exhibitions of these breast cancer tattoos.

Looking through online designs is a good place to start. Having a stencil in hand of your chosen artwork when you go to your favourite tattoo artist can also save you some time and money.

Getting the breast cancer tattoos is also seen as a better alternative over the possibility of reconstructive surgeries following mastectomies. The primary reason for this is the occurrence of these reconstructive surgeries going wrong. In such cases, it only aggravates the psychological effects of breast cancer on its victims instead of alleviating it.

Tattooing is an art form and great tattoos can be expensive. If you decide to go smaller in order to save money, you may regret it later. Sometimes waiting until you can afford to get the right tattoo will be worth it in the long run. Your tattoo should be unique and special to you so don't scrimp on it.

Deciding to get a breast cancer ribbon tattoo is commendable and offers a special tribute to your loved one or friend. Take your time choosing the best design and the right application location. Only then will it truly show honour and respect for those who fight the breast cancer battle.

It is a very good idea to make an appointment for a consultation with the artist. Actually, you should consult with several artists before making a final decision on just which artist will ink your tattoo. Take all your ideas, sketches and stencilled artwork with you to your appointment so together you and the artist can come up with the best custom tattoo design that is just right for you.

The common aim of this worldwide effort is of course the raising of breast cancer awareness targeting women who may not otherwise have access to vital health information about the disease.
