What are the best practices for text-based tattoos?

We love a classic text tattoo! To make sure yours comes out perfectly, here are a few things to keep in mind.

💁🏽♀️ Pro Tips for spacing your text:

• Avoid small spaces between letters and fine lines in the text. Thinner, truncated lines increase the chance your design may smudge once applied, and we definitely don't want that! 😰
• The negative (white) space between letters should be at least 4px at 300DPI.
• Letters should be a minimum of 4px thick (see the line weights article).
• When creating a design with many words, break your text up into multiple lines.
