Having a personal, unique signature used to be a THING, but people don’t seem to care about it anymore.  We don’t need to sign things as often as we used to . . . and when we do, it’s usually on a DIGITAL pad, and it doesn’t come out looking right anyway.  But that might be changing.

There’s apparently a new trend of people in Shreveport and across the country getting SIGNATURE MAKEOVERS . . . by HIRING someone to help them improve it.

There are multiple people promoting signature design services on social media . . . and the prices are all over the map, from $10 to $600.

One woman has a business called Planet of Names where she does around 300 custom signatures a month.  The packages include stuff like:  Up to three ways to sign . . . limitless drafts . . . or a new set of initials.

She charges between $10 to $55.  And you can choose a style . . . “elegant, subtle, dramatic, sharp, classic, artistic, condensed, curvy, or even illegible.”  And you can also get coached on how to PRACTICE your new signature.

One thing to note:  Drastically changing your signature CAN be a headache though.  For things like voter rolls, passports, credit cards, health documents, and legal papers, you may need to update your signature on file.
