The butterfly's lifecycle-caterpillar to chrysalis to winged creature (similar to mythical winged creatures)-makes it a powerful metaphor for personal growth, change, and rebirth. Many people choose butterfly tattoos to mark transitions: recovery, new beginnings, or honoring someone who has passed.

Fine-line tattoos use a single thin needle to create delicate, precise designs with minimal line weight. The result is a subtle, almost sketch-like quality that suits detailed small-scale work.

Neck tattoos are among the most visible placements, making a confident statement. The area suits small, detailed designs behind the ear or bold pieces on the side or back of the neck.
