Lettering and script
A name, a date, a line that matters: drawn letter by letter, never typed in a font.
Good lettering is drawn by hand for the placement: the letters follow the curve of the body and the spacing is adjusted so that it stays readable as it ages.
What is included
- Two or three lettering proposals drawn for you
- The spelling checked with you, letter by letter, before the stencil
- The stencil placed and adjusted
- Aftercare instructions in writing
Good to know
Send the text in writing, with accents and punctuation: we tattoo exactly what you sign off, and we read it back to you before starting.
Very small script blurs: under about 4 mm per letter, a word becomes a line. We will suggest a size that lasts.
Keeping the greys soft
Keep the film on
For as long as we told you: a few hours for a classic film, several days for a second-skin dressing.
Wash, dry, a thin layer
Clean hands, mild soap, pat dry with paper, then a thin layer of healing cream, two or three times a day.
No bath, sea, pool or sun
For about three weeks, until the skin has closed. After that, sunscreen keeps the lines sharp.
Do not scratch
The skin peels and itches: let it. Picking a scab takes the ink with it.
Tell us about your project
A few lines are enough: the idea, where on the body, roughly how big. Paste links to references if you have some. We answer within three working days with a price range and a consultation date.
Deposit from €50, deducted from the final price. Kept if you cancel less than 48 hours before.
