The tattoo you have in mind,
on your skinin 30 seconds

A stencil is a pre-traced transfer the tattoo artist applies to your skin before starting to tattoo. It works as a guide to reproduce the design faithfully, without straying a single line. With Tatua, you walk away with your design in high definition, sharp and with no cluttered background: the ideal reference your tattoo artist uses to prepare their stencil. No more blurry screenshots shown on your phone.

The main styles you can pick in Tatua:

• Blackwork = solid black, filled areas, ultra high contrast
• Dotwork = built from thousands of dots (stippling)
• Fineline = ultra-thin lines (single needle), minimalist, feminine look
• Old school = bold colors and thick lines (traditional sailor style)
• Neo-traditional = old school enriched with detail and rich colors
• Japanese / Irezumi = waves, dragons, cherry blossoms
• Realistic = detailed photo effect, realistic shading
• Geometric = clean lines, sacred geometry
• Watercolor = paint-wash effect, splashes of color with no outline
• Tribal / Maori = Polynesian patterns, sweeping solid curves

You can test any style on the same subject to compare the renders.

A sleeve is a large tattoo that covers part or all of the arm. Half sleeve = shoulder to elbow. Full sleeve = shoulder to wrist. It's usually a coherent assembly of several designs tied together by a theme (Japanese, nature, biomechanical, religious, etc.). Tatua has a Sleeve Assistant that guides you through 5 steps to build yours without getting lost.

A cover-up is a new tattoo designed to cover an old tattoo you no longer want. The design has to be bigger, denser and darker than the old one to mask it completely. With Tatua, you can generate dense, dark ideas suited to a cover-up, then show them to a cover-up specialist who will confirm what's feasible.

Yes. Each generation produces 4 unique designs based on your precise description. The AI never reuses other users' designs. You can then try your favorite one on a photo of your own skin to see the final result.

A tattoo artist works from a reference: the sharper it is, the better. Your designs come in high definition, sharp and with no cluttered background, exactly what's needed to prepare the session. Many artists then redraw it in their own hand, and that's exactly how it should be.

You upload a photo of your arm (or back, leg, etc.), pick your design, and the AI applies the tattoo photorealistically, following your skin's curve and relief. No more regrets. Your photo is used only for your try-on, never appears in any gallery and is never resold.

You buy credits that never expire and each tool uses them based on its real cost. Rough guide: 500 credits ($8.99) ≈ 12 generations of 4 designs. A generation = 40 credits, a try-on on your skin = 20 credits. You top up only when you want to keep exploring.

You hold all commercial and personal rights to the designs you generate. You can tattoo them, print them, resell them, share them. You can also use them in your tattoo portfolio without crediting us.

Your full creation (4 designs) starts after payment. If the results miss the mark, rephrase your idea and run it again with your remaining credits: it's often down to the description. And the 14-day money-back guarantee has you covered.

Within 14 days of your payment, email support@tatua.fr from your account email address (or mention it). No justification required. The refund is issued within 7 business days to your original payment method.

Pinterest = a design already seen and tattooed on 1,000 people. Tatua = a unique design made to measure from your precise description, your favorite style, your placement. Plus a visualization on skin before you decide. Plus a clean HD file for your artist. In short: zero chance of ending up with the same tattoo as 100 other people.
