'''Ren Xiujuan''' ({{zh-s|任秀娟}}, born [[September 14]], [[1974]]) is a female [[PR China|Chinese]] [[Athletics (track and field)|athlete]] who specialized in the [[marathon race]]s.
Beginning in the late 1990s the '''[[Human back|lower back]] [[tattoo]]''' became popular, especially among young women. Lower back tattoos are often oblong in shape, following the slope of the back on either side of the woman's spine. The lower back tattoo is [[body decoration]], sometimes intended to emphasize sexual attractiveness. Generally, a lower back tattoo will be designed to emphasize the shape and curvature of the female figure.

===Personal bests===
Several attributes of lower back tattoos have made them popular. While the lower back is not the widest area of the human back, it has abundant space for a large design, and horizontal tattoo designs can be worked easily. An additional consideration is that while a lower back tattoo may be easily revealed by casual clothing or during intimate moments, it may just as easily be concealed by conservative clothing as circumstances require. Lower back tattoos are often displayed in conjunction with [[halfshirt]]s and [[bellyshirt]]s (also called [[crop top]]s) designed to expose the [[midriff]], and [[low-rise jeans]] that are worn low around the hips.
