Remove Instagram Highlight Names: A Quick Guide!

March 28, 2018 By Stephanie Hope 2 Comments

One of my favorite features so far on Instagram is the highlights. Being able to save certain stories in it’s own category has been a game-changer for me. However, I don’t always like to have the IG highlight names on there- it looks so busy! I tried searching for a way to remove it, but IG still hasn’t made it an option to leave it blank, so I came up with a method for you to successfully remove the IG highlight names and have a clean looking grid!


Hey! Be sure to check out my Instagram account @thetinyherbivore and follow if you’d like! I’m actually pretty cool, plus I discovered this really neat trick! I really appreciate your support!


Here’s what mine looks like!

Obviously, I am currently using the names because of these adorable icons I created for my highlights, but I’m still going to show you how to make it look without all the extra clutter of words on your bio. First, I want to show you what happens when you try to leave the name blank.

Remove Instagram Highlight Names

Click on one of your icons and choose the … in the bottom. Click “Edit Highlight”

For demonstration, I deleted my “trick” to show you what happens when you leave it blank.

Instagram will automatically change it back to “Highlights” which is just ridiculous. I don’t know why, after a few years now, they haven’t updated this so you can just leave it blank normally.

Okay, let’s go to this website! Click here to get there!

i still can’t believe there’s a wee baby insid i still can’t believe there’s a wee baby inside my body right now ready to come out soon. just squirming around, hiccuping. it’s so unreal. the fact that my body just knows what to do despite spending my entire adult life convinced i 1. didn’t want a child and 2. wasn’t capable of being a (good) mother. 

if i’m being honest, my fears came from my poor relationship with my own mother. i was raised to be afraid, to never feel like i would be good enough (spoiler alert: never was to her!) but to constantly try, and to feel like i had to buy love from people around me. now i know better. i know that i can just love my daughter unconditionally, help her see that i will ALWAYS be her safe space and never the thing to be afraid of, and that she never has to buy my love.

being a mom is something i never thought i would do, but i am ready to dive in and be the mother i always wanted growing up but never had. 💕 Photos are all from @jaceyanastasio ! #motherhood #pregnancyjourney #maternityshoot
I don’t see my stretch marks as battle scars, ti I don’t see my stretch marks as battle scars, tiger stripes, or a badge of honor. To me, they’re just skin stretching—because that’s what skin does. It doesn’t have to carry a deeper meaning or be a symbol of anything. It doesn’t have to be proof that I’m a mom to make me feel like a mom. My motherhood isn’t defined by the marks on my body; it’s in the love I give, the patience I practice, and the moments that shape this journey.

I don’t need to call my stretch marks anything to accept them, and for me, that’s freeing. They’re not good or bad, beautiful or ugly—they just are. A natural part of being human, of growing, of changing.

That being said, if giving them a name or a purpose helps you embrace them, that’s amazing! Every mom’s journey is different, and so is the way we process the changes that come with it. This is simply what works for me—letting my body be, without pressure to find meaning in every mark. No labels needed, no justification required. Just me, existing as I am. #pregnancyjourney #stretchmarks #pregnancyphotoshoot #maternityshoot
reminder that everyone’s experience is different reminder that everyone’s experience is different and valid 💕 you never know what someone is going through or what they went through, so it’s best to just congratulate them and move on 💕what’s the worst “just wait” you’ve heard so far? #pregnancyjourney #pregnancyproblems
its for the baby, duh. it’s me. i’m the baby. its for the baby, duh. it’s me. i’m the baby. #pregnancylife #thirdtrimester #pregnancyjourney
