Letter tattoos

Letter tattoos: the intimacy of every stroke

There’s something quietly powerful about the shape of a single letter. A curve, a serif, a flick of ink – it’s more than just typography. It's memory. Identity. A whisper of someone you love. Our letter tattoos are designed to hold meaning close to the skin — minimal and chic, yet emotionally rich.

Whether it's an initial that reminds you of your mother’s voice or a word you return to on heavy days, letter tattoos carry secrets in the most understated way. Unlike larger statement pieces, these temporary tattoos invite intimacy. They're noticed not just for their design, but for the stories tucked beneath them.

Letter tattoos as keepsakes of connection

No two tattoos in our collection are quite the same — because no story is. We've curated a set of letter-based designs that range from classic to contemporary, allowing you to find the one that fits your personal rhythm. Some speak in soften cursive, others in bold glyphs. Some say one letter. Others spell out a lifetime.

• Initial tattoos: Mark your skin with a single letter that says everything. From remembered names to quiet dedications.
• Short words & minimalist quotes: 'Hope', 'Free', 'Stay', 'Mum' — a few simple letters that anchor you. Ideal for subtle self-reminders or tributes.
  
• Script styles: Let the elegance of handwriting mirror your voice. These designs pair gracefully with ribcage, collarbone, or wrist placements.

If you're exploring font-based designs or want to create something that feels utterly yours, our lettering tattoos collection opens up even more typographic inspiration.

Where your letter belongs: spaces that speak quieter

Placement often says just as much as the tattoo itself. With letter tattoos, your canvas is your own – and sometimes, it’s less about visibility than about wearing intention.

The inner wrist bears initials like a heartbeat. Along the collarbone, small letterings shimmer, soft and deliberate. The ankle holds secrets only some get to see, while the forearm allows full words to stretch their meaning. There's no right or wrong spot — only what feels right for you.

Need inspiration? Many pair our letters with symbolic tattoos, like those in our tattoos for mom or tattoos for dad categories — a meaningful linkage of script and sentiment 🤍.

Form, style, and the way it feels on skin

Our vegan temporary tattoos are made for sensitive skin, crafted with EU-certified materials, and entirely waterproof — so you can wear your story through showers, swims or nights out. They last up to a week and fade gracefully, inviting you to change, evolve, speak something new.

Letter tattoos also sit beautifully within more layered aesthetics. If you're drawn to minimal writing, explore the writing tattoos range. And if wordplay is your art form, you may fall in love with our quote tattoos too.

Your letter. Your story. Your moment.

Temporary they may be, but these tattoos often mark forever moments: a birth, a breakup, an unspoken promise. That’s their magic. You don’t need a sleeve to make a statement — just the right letter, beautifully placed.

Choose what matters most to you. Wear it for yourself. Or gift it to someone who’ll understand exactly what it says without a single word.

Let your letter speak for you.
