Hand tattoos you can take back
Hand tattoos are some of the most visible you can get, which is exactly why they're worth trying first. A temporary hand tattoo shows you how a design looks at work, in photos and every time you reach for something, without the permanent decision.
This collection covers designs sized for the back of the hand, the side of the hand and the space between thumb and index finger: hearts, suns, daggers, symbols and small line work. For the smallest spots, see temporary finger tattoos.
The ink is semi-permanent and plant-based. It develops over 24 hours into a tattoo-like finish. Be realistic about wear time: hands get washed, sanitized and rubbed more than any other spot, so a hand design usually fades sooner than the 10-day maximum.
How long do temporary hand tattoos last?
Less than on the arm or back. Frequent washing wears the ink down, so expect a shorter run than the 10-day maximum.
Can I wear one to work?
Yes. That's the point of trying one: you see how it reads in a real week before you decide on a permanent hand tattoo.
Which designs suit the hand?
Small, bold designs hold up best. Fine lines on the palm side fade fastest.
