Try-on helps evaluate size, placement, and proportions before application. You'll be confident in your choice before visiting the artist.

Try Tattoo on Photo —

The technology works for any body part: arms and forearms, shoulders and biceps, chest and back, neck, legs, calves, and thighs. AI analyzes the surface contours and automatically adapts the design to anatomical features, creating the most realistic image.

Use try-on to test different options: compare multiple designs on the same photo, try different sizes and placements. The try-on result can be downloaded and shown to your tattoo artist.

Frequently asked questions

How does virtual tattoo try-on work?
You upload a photo of the desired body area — arm, shoulder, forearm, back, leg, etc. Then choose or create a tattoo design. AI analyzes the body shape, lighting, skin tone, and perspective, then realistically overlays the design on the selected area. The result is a photorealistic image of how the tattoo will look on your body.
How realistic is the try-on result?
The AI try-on considers body contours, lighting and shadows, and skin surface curvature. The result closely approximates how the tattoo would look in reality. This helps evaluate the size, placement, and proportions of the design on a specific body part before making a final decision.
What size and format should the photo be?
The photo should be clear and well-lit. JPG and PNG formats are supported. Recommended resolution is at least 800×800 pixels. Make sure the desired body area is clearly visible and takes up most of the frame — this ensures the most accurate try-on result.
Can I try a tattoo on any body part?
Yes, virtual try-on works for any body part: arm, forearm, wrist, shoulder, chest, back, neck, leg, thigh, calf. The key is to upload a clear photo of the desired area with good lighting. AI automatically adapts the design to the shape and contours of the specific body part.
Is my photo saved?
Photos uploaded for try-on are used only for processing during the current session. We do not publish your photos publicly or use them for model training. Your data is protected in accordance with GenTattoo's privacy policy.
How much does tattoo try-on cost?
Virtual try-on is available within your general credit balance. Upon registration you get 3 free credits without a credit card. For extended use, credit packages are available — purchased credits never expire.
