i think if done on the right spot it looks good, and it must be done with good taste and by a professional. no home made tattoos please... my boyfriend has 2 tribal armbands one on each arm... another thing... if it is going to be an armband on a guy it should definetly be on a muscular bicept i have one, it's a tribal sun, right on the lower middle of my back, just a little above my butt cleavage.... the center is red and the rays are white, purple and black (outline) i'd like to get another one, but am not too sure what to get. when i decide it will be on my left shoulder blade or on the middle of the back of my neck.
