Quotes

Quotes can help turn a set of meaningful words into something to wear every day. Whether they are meant to motivate you, push you forward, or just make you embrace yourself, the right words can become very personal. At Inkbolt, we provide quote tattoos in various styles and sizes for those looking for words that would reflect their personality.

Choose Words That Mean Something

Do not choose a quote just because it looks nice on a website. Think of what it will mean to you in the future.

It may be a message about self-confidence, self-worth, perseverance, or any other aspect that matters to you. Quotes like "Fearless," "Breathe" or "You Are Enough" can serve as daily reminders, while some longer ones can become a bit more personal.

What really matters is that you will relate to them in a year or two from now.

Short or Long Quote?

How long your selected quote is will determine the size and placement.

Short quotes are easier to wear on the wrist, hand, neck, or forearm. They are also more visually appealing if accompanied by minimal fonts.

Larger quotes will require more space so that it does not appear congested. You could get a larger canvas like the forearm, chest, ribs, or the back.

Fonts Could Alter the Whole Tattoo

While choosing a tattoo made up of words, the font becomes just as crucial as the words.

A sleek and bold font makes for a contemporary look, whereas handwriting or a script font appears to be a little soft. For tattoos where legibility of the words matters, choose minimal fonts.

The style of dressing is also to be taken into consideration. It should go well with your attire.

Where Should You Get It?

Visibility is an important factor to consider when choosing placement.

Wrist: Best for short phrases

Forearm: For short and long phrases

Neck: Best for legible and visible writing

Chest or ribs: Private phrases

Back: Large phrases

Remember to also take into consideration how often the area gets into contact with jewelry and clothing.

Try It Before Going Permanent

In case you are not sure how the writing will look in terms of wording, font, and placement, then try a semi-permanent tattoo.

Quotes may look great on the computer screen; however, they may seem otherwise after they are put on your skin. Testing the design in the temporary manner will help you decide whether the writing size is okay, whether you like how it is written, and whether you like wearing it.

Semi permanent tattoos are great for beginners.

Find Words That Feel Like You

A quote tattoo does not need to encompass everything about your life story. Even one word can be sufficient, but if you choose a longer sentence, then it would surely convey something personal.

At Inkbolt, you have the opportunity to experiment with different types of quote tattoos, even temporarily, before getting a permanent one.
