Hi,

I’ve been planning to get a fairly large tattoo on my side with a poem. What is the recommended font size I should consider that would be small enough to fit a lot of text without blurring over time? Is it also possible to get a customized text in my own handwriting? Thanks!

Here are the following steps you should take:

1) write the poem in your own handwriting. Make sure its easy to read.

2) Find a reputable studio with highly skilled/experienced tattoo artists.

3) Bring said poem to highly skilled/experienced tattoo artist and let them know where you want it and what other design work you want with it.

4) The highly skilled/experienced tattoo artist will be able to tell you what needs to be done in order to make it work. ie: how big the font has to be, if it will even fit, the potential of it working with the other design work you want,etc.

It really is as simple as it sounds. And without knowing the poem, seeing your body, figuring out what design work,etc you want. Nobody can really give you any solid statement of how big the font would need to be,etc…Especially if you’re doing it in your own handwriting.
