    There's plenty of room on the back for the detail you'd want in a really rocking dragon lower back tattoo. Add a splash of color or some tribal tattoo elements for the perfect lower back tat.

    I'm not super clear on the point of a crown as a lower back tattoo. Maybe you're an LA Kings hockey fan? You're secretly royalty? Your behind is the boss of the body? Regardless, if you find yourself a great crown tattoo design, it can make a splendid lower back tat.
