Tattoo Lettering is basically a type of inking tattoos that involves writing quotes, texts, verses etc rather than in carving pictures and symbols. The most famous example of Tattoo Lettering is the letters in carved on the arm of Saif Ali Khan. He inked the letters of the name of his now wife and then sweetheart Kareena Kapoor.
Poor Tattoo Lettering can make you a laughing stock for all; hence here we are to guide you through the process. When you decide on getting Tattoo Lettering, keep in mind these few handy steps and Tada! You will not get the text-based tattoo of your dreams.
Step 1: Search for the Right Artist
First thing is to find a guy who can do letters like a professional. That’s important as lettering isn’t supposed to be for every other artist. Lettering isn’t for everyone. Search out the web and find out in your vicinity the one person who’s very good at lettering or else you won’t get the right Tattoo Lettering. In short have a thorough look at on the whole portfolio of the artist.
Step 2: Pick Out the Right Font
If you’re getting a portrait, you don’t want gang banger lettering, if you want your stomach done, you might want it to look hard, it needs to fit the look you want to accomplish. Don’t just run and decide on just any font but in actual choose the one that depicts the feelings you want your tattoo to portray. Tattoo lettering needs to be clear, just like any tattoo. Make sure that your tattoo reads out clear and perfect and the colours used are true to the feel of the tattoo.
Step 3: Make Sure There are No Spelling Errors
Third thing is to check for any spelling and typo errors. Spelling out your sweetheart’s name wrong can get you into lots of trouble. Hence avoid such errors, don’t just get all hyped up about tattooing rather we suggest keep your eyes open and avoid such kind of errors.
Step 4: Make Sure The Font Fits in Your Specified Area
Make sure that the lettering fits in the area you want the Tattoo Lettering done. If not so you won’t be able to get your dream Tattoo Lettering. Make sure that the font size fits in the area you want to be tattooed.
Step 5: Sit Patiently
