What Tattoo Clean is for
Off-white, a dark hairline, serif labels, square corners and the date on. Reach for it when the work has to be examined rather than admired: line healing, a scar cover, a laser fade series, a piece a client is deciding about. A near-white frame is the only honest background for judging ink, because it is the one that adds nothing.
The ground is flat #FAFAFA, with no gradient anywhere in it. 1 point of #222222 hold the two photographs apart, with Playfair Display Bold labels bottom centre. Corners are square, with no radius at all, on a 1:1 square frame, and the default wording is Before and After. The date stamp is on by default, which is what you want on a series where the gap between the two shots is part of the claim.

Every value in Tattoo Clean, as the build holds it
What makes a trade template a trade template lives mostly in the small values: the wording already sitting in the labels, the palette, the crop it was cut to. The geometry is drawn below at the app's drawing scale, and the panel next to it lists the record's words, default labels included, so the retyping you avoid is visible up front.

Shooting for itNiche category
How to shoot a pair for Tattoo Clean
Trade work is judged by people who do the same work, so the pair has to survive an expert eye. Hair and makeup need the same head angle and the same light, because a chin lifted two inches reads as a different face. Nails need one fixed distance, hands in the same position both times. Detailing and landscaping need the wide shot before the close-up, or nobody believes the panel belongs to the car. A pair that would satisfy somebody in your trade will satisfy a customer easily.
In orderWritten for niche work
- 01Take the before before you start work, not after you have half finished. This is the step every trade skips and every trade regrets.
- 02Mark your standing spot. A tile, a chair leg, a wheel arch, a paving stone: something that will still be there when you shoot the after.
- 03Shoot the after from that mark with Ghost Camera on, then take a second one a step closer for the detail.
- 04Pick the pack for your trade. The label wording and the palette are already right, so the only real decision left is the canvas shape.
- 05Add your business name in the branding strip if the template reserves one, then export. Trade work gets shared, and a name in the frame travels with it.
Trade work gets judged by people who do the same work, so hold the pair up to that eye before it goes out. The browser slider tool does it on your own device in about two seconds, and the guide to fake-looking pairs is built around the mistakes trade pairs make most often.
Honest limitsTwo of them, and both are real
What Tattoo Clean will not do
A template tuned to a trade is a palette and a default label, nothing more. It does not know your subject, and it will happily frame a pair that does not match. The two hardest cases in this category are honest ones: hair and makeup change with the light, so a warm salon bulb over the after does most of the work you were hoping the haircut would do, and a pet photographed wet looks like a different animal from a pet photographed dry. Shoot both frames dry, in the same spot, or the post argues with itself.
On this template in particularA one point rule is the thinnest divider in the catalogue. Against a busy pair it can stop reading as a divider and start reading as a seam, which is worth checking at the size the post will actually be watched rather than on a preview.

Common questions
- Who is the Tattoo Clean template for?
- Off-white, a dark hairline, serif labels, square corners and the date on. Reach for it when the work has to be examined rather than admired: line healing, a scar cover, a laser fade series, a piece a client is deciding about. A near-white frame is the only honest background for judging ink, because it is the one that adds nothing.
- When should I use something other than Tattoo Clean?
- Pale skin against an off-white border needs a boundary. Include some clothing, some background or some negative space in the shot, or the arm and the frame merge along the edge.
- Is Tattoo Clean free?
- No, it is one of the Pro templates. The free tier opens 8 of the 100, and everything else in the editor is free with them: all four comparison modes, Ghost Camera, the filters, the stickers, the full label editor, and your own logo and business name.
- What shape is Tattoo Clean, and what will it export at?
- The template's canvas is 1:1 square. The export ratio is a separate choice made in the export sheet: 9:16 and 1:1 on the free tier, plus 4:5 and the original ratio on Pro. 1:1 is among them, so the canvas and the export can match exactly.
- Can I change the BEFORE and AFTER wording?
- Yes. Tattoo Clean starts with "Before" and "After", and every part of that is editable: the text, the typeface, the colour, the size, bold and italic, uppercase, a shadow, the background opacity, and the position, either one of five presets or dragged anywhere on the canvas.
- Can I compare two video clips with this?
- Not at all. Take a photograph before the job and a photograph after it; that pair is the entire input, and the app turns it into a reveal. Filming the job and cutting it down is a different tool's work.
