Looking for a tattoo that makes a bit more of a statement but isn’t too big? Then our medium tattoos are perfect for you. These temporary tattoos have the ideal size: large enough to be noticed and convey your message powerfully, yet compact enough to fit on various parts of your body. From inspiring texts to meaningful quotes, each design tells a story.
Our collection of medium tattoos combines style with subtlety. You’ll mainly find text-based designs with powerful messages that resonate with who you are or want to be. Think motivating sayings, life mottos, and phrases that help you remember what truly matters. Perfect for anyone who wants to make a statement without committing to a permanent tattoo right away.
What makes this size so popular? Medium tattoos are versatile enough to wear solo or combine with other designs. They stand out without being overwhelming, allowing you to place them on both visible spots and more hidden locations. And of course, you can try them out first before deciding to go for a permanent version, fully in line with our philosophy: tattoo without regrets.
Why choose medium tattoos from Tatt4aweek?
A medium temporary tattoo offers you the best of both worlds. The size is large enough to make details clearly visible, especially for text tattoos where readability is important. At the same time, the format is compact enough to fit popular spots like your forearm, upper arm, or thigh without dominating the entire body part.
Our medium stick-on tattoos are dermatologically tested and made from natural ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about skin irritation. They are water-resistant and stay looking great for up to 2 weeks—long enough to truly experience what it feels like to wear this tattoo. Want to go to the beach, work out, or shower? No problem, these fake tattoos go along with your daily life.
Applying them is surprisingly easy. Within a few minutes, your new tattoo is on and you can enjoy your new look. Still unsure about that one text you’ve had in mind for a permanent tattoo for years? Try it first as a temporary version. This way, you see exactly how it looks, how others react, and whether it really suits you. Many of our customers use our semi-permanent tattoos precisely to test before going to the tattoo studio.

Suitable spots for medium tattoos
The size of these temporary tattoos makes them suitable for multiple locations on your body. The most popular spot is the forearm, where text tattoos are easily readable and you can see them yourself regularly. The upper arm is also a favorite, especially on the inside or outside where you have enough space for a slightly larger design.
For those who prefer more hidden placements, the thigh or calf are also excellent options. These spots offer plenty of space and you can decide when to show your tattoo. The collarbone is perfect for an elegant, feminine look, while the back is ideal for longer texts placed horizontally.
When choosing your spot, also consider the readability of the text. Some designs work better horizontally, others vertically. Look at the orientation of your chosen design and pick a body part where the tattoo naturally fits and remains easy to read.

Frequently asked questions about medium tattoos
How big is a medium tattoo exactly?
Our medium temporary tattoos vary roughly between 5 and 10 centimeters, depending on the design. Text tattoos are often a bit more elongated, while other designs are more compact. On the product page of each tattoo, you’ll find the exact dimensions so you know exactly what to expect and whether it fits the spot you have in mind.
Can I resize a medium tattoo smaller or larger?
Our stick-on tattoos come in a fixed size specially designed to perform optimally. We advise against resizing because it can affect quality and durability. Prefer a different size? Then check out our small or large tattoos for alternatives. Many designs are also available in different sizes.
How long does a medium tattoo last?
Like all our semi-permanent tattoos, medium tattoos stay looking great for up to 2 weeks. The exact duration depends on factors such as the spot on your body, how often the tattoo gets wet, and how much friction there is (for example from clothing). In places with less movement, like your thigh or upper arm, they often last a bit longer than on your hands or wrists.
