Word Tattoos and Lettering - Finding the Best Quotes, Sayings and and Script For Your Tattoo Designs

So you are looking to get tattooed and have decided to go with text instead of images as theme for your body ink. Word tattoos, lettering tattoos or script tattoos - no matter what they called it, they all have one thing in common. They all rely on the message of the text to be embedded on your body to make it personal and significant to you.

With that being said, you have to be careful about several things before getting word tattoos. First of all, you have to decide on what kind of words will be inked to you forever. Will you go for a favorite quotation, lyrics from a memorable song, a verse from a bible or something that you personally composed or wrote? Whatever you choose, make sure that its something that you can relate to, something that you feel strongly about or simply something that reflect a part of your personality. Bear in mind that it will be with your forever so don't afford to make mistakes or regrets in the end.

The other important thing that you have to be aware of when going for word or lettering tattoos is to watch out for misspelling or grammatical errors in the text of your design. There are a lot of instances that a tattoo artist messed up the spelling thus spoiling the whole thing. Watch it for this situation and clear everything with your tattoo artist before starting with the whole process.

What fonts to go for is another crucial step. Script and old english fonts are some of the most popular types but it does not mean that you should go stick with these two. Nothing is set in stone and there are a lot of options for you to explore. Think outside the box and be creative:when it comes to your tattoo designs, the possibilities are endless.
