If you want a small and delicate tattoo design, I’m sharing a collection of small tattoo ideas for women. If you’re thinking about getting a tattoo and you’re looking for something cute and petite, you’ll find inspiration below.
Most of these tattoos are done using black ink, but you should consider adding a bit of color to your tattoo where appropriate.
The Benefits of Getting a Small Tattoo
A small tattoo can be a great way to express your personality or to show your support for a cause or belief. They are also a lot less expensive and painful than getting a large tattoo, making them a popular choice for people who want to get inked for the first time.
Small tattoos can also be easily hidden if you need to, which is another plus. Here are some of the benefits of getting a small tattoo:
- They’re less expensive than larger tattoos
- The pain is usually less intense
- They can be easily hidden if needed
- They’re a great way to express your personality or beliefs
1. Realistic Heart
If you want a heart tattoo, step outside the box with a realistic heart on your wrist. The heart is obviously a symbol of love, but for many, it also represents strength and resilience. After all, the human heart is an incredibly tough organ that can keep pumping under all kinds of conditions.

A tattoo like this is perfect for graphic designers, bloggers, and more. As someone who spends a lot of time online, I love this missing image “tattoo.jpg” tattoo.
3. Faith Arm Tattoo
This quote tattoo on the arm is really eye-catching. Choosing the word “faith” is definitely inspiring, and the tattoo itself is very well done. A tattoo like this will serve as a constant reminder to always have faith.
4. Tattoo Behind the Ear
Behind the ear is a great location for a small and delicate tattoo. “Yours is the light by which my spirit’s born – you are my sun, my moon, and all my stars.” – E. E. Cummings
5. Delicate Flower
If you love a delicate floral tattoo, consider getting something similar to this. The tattoo is small and tasteful, and it looks great on the ankle area.
6. Hand Holding Rose
I love how the hand is holding the rose with this feminine tattoo. This tattoo has been placed on the thigh area, but it would also look great on the shoulder.
7. BFF Tattoo
Here’s a perfect BFF (best friend forever) tattoo idea. You and your best friend can get matching tattoos. This is a pretty cool mother and daughter matching tattoo idea as well.
8. Moon on Ankle
The moon is often seen as a symbol of femininity, mystery, and enchantment. In many cultures, the moon is associated with the goddesses Selene, Artemis, and Luna. The moon is also believed to be a powerful force that can influence our emotions, behavior, and even our destiny.
9. Moon on Wrist
I love small wrist tattoos. This simple moon tattoo is the perfect design for someone getting their first tattoo. This tattoo features the moon in the waning crescent phase.
10. Heart-Shaped Cherries
What I love about this tattoo is that most people won’t know you have one unless you show it to them. Have your cherries colored with red and make the stem green.
11. Wine Glass
This is a super fun and creative tattoo idea. It’s a glass of wine that looks like it’s about to spill over. Wine lovers and people with a sense of humor will enjoy this tattoo.
12. Begin Again
I love inspirational tattoos like this one. They are a constant reminder that it’s never too late to begin again. If you’re on a new journey in your life, a quote tattoo is a great choice.
13. Butterflies
Butterflies are often seen as symbols of hope, change, and new beginnings. If you love butterflies, I think that this is such a creative location for a butterfly tattoo.
14. Rose on Finger
I’ve always loved petite feminine tattoos that are located on the inner finger. The rose is a symbol of love, appreciation, and gratitude. Roses are often given to express these sentiments, and they have been used as a symbol of love since ancient times.
15. No Rain, No Rainbow
Rainbows are often seen as a symbol of hope, promise, and new beginnings. If you want to get creative with your small tattoo, I love this tattoo that reminds us that you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain.
16. Daisy on Finger
Here’s another beautiful inner finger tattoo. This tattoo features a beautiful daisy flower. Daisies are often seen as a symbol of innocence, purity, and simplicity. They are also associated with the idea of new beginnings, and they are often used to represent the hope of finding love.
17. Wildflowers on Arm
This is one of my favorite floral tattoo ideas. I think the bicep area is the perfect location for a tattoo like this. This type of tattoo would also look awesome as a watercolor tattoo.
18. Small Stars
I love the simplicity of stars going along the middle finger. Stars are often seen as a symbol of hope, inspiration, and possibility. They remind us that even in the darkest of night skies, there is still light and beauty. Stars can also represent our highest aspirations and dreams.
19. Letter and Heart
Turn the first letter of your name into a heart. You could also do the first letter of a loved one’s name.
I hope this post has inspired you and given you some ideas for your own small tattoo design. Remember, the key to a great tattoo is finding a design that has personal meaning to you. So take your time, do your research, and choose a design that you’ll love for years.
