Building an aesthetic bio
- Choose one style for a short header line, like your name or a mood.
- Use small caps or plain text for the rest, separated with dots ( · ) or slashes ( / ).
- Add one or two symbols, not a row of them.
Example: ⋆。°✩ ᴍɪʟʟɪᴇ ✩°。⋆ / film photos · tea · late trains

Questions
What is the aesthetic font on Instagram?
Most aesthetic bios use small caps (ꜱᴍᴀʟʟ ᴄᴀᴘꜱ), wide vaporwave letters (wide) or soft cursive. All three are in the list above.
Why is wide text so spaced out?
Wide text uses full-width characters, which are designed to match the width of Chinese and Japanese characters. Each letter and space takes a full square.
Do aesthetic fonts work on TikTok?
Yes. Paste them into your bio, display name or captions.
