Sternum tattoo is one of the most beautiful types for the ladies. The sternum is a long central breastbone of the chest. Usually, sternum tattoos are delicate and minimal, but even the more complicated designs look beautiful on the sternum. However, this type requires a high pain tolerance, because it is very close to the bone. So, if it is going to be your first tattoo, we don’t recommend sternum. On the other hand, if you have a scar, a tattoo on the sternum is a perfect way to hide it. Let’s take a look at most fantastic sternum tattoo ideas.
