What are the nearest appointment dates?Expand

It depends on the artist you choose and the design you want to have tattooed. In the case of smaller designs, you may need to wait about 2 weeks, whereas in case of designs that require all-day sessions at least 3 months. We work from Monday to Friday, from 11 AM to 6 PM, and on Saturdays from 11 AM to 3 PM. Send us your design, and we will suggest nearest appointment dates.

How can I make an appointment with the Studio?Expand

Fill out the contact form, email us, contact us on FacebookInstagramcall us or come to the Studio. Remember, the more information we have about your design (place, rough size, style, colors), the easier it is for us to price it and define time needed to make it.

Why do I need to pay a deposit?Expand

Your deposit is the confirmation of your appointment and a guarantee for us that time booked with the tattoo artist to develop a design and session will not be wasted. Your deposit will be calculated towards the final price for the session. You will lose your deposit if you fail to come for your session on an agreed date and do not inform the studio about the fact 3 days before at the latest. The payment of the deposit also means that you have read and accepted our studio regulations.

Will you send me a design for my tattoo?Expand

We do not send tattoo designs in advance. Designs are based on consultation and information you provide. You can review designs on the date of the session. Once you go through the portfolio of the artist and share all necessary information, you can be sure that the final effect will be satisfactory. Before you start the session and after you have reviewed the design, you can make some minor changes that do not interfere with the main concept of the design. Since we respect your and our time, we use due skills and care to meet your expectations. Regrettably, since some of our designs have been stolen in the past, we do not email them prior to the session.

Why the price is approximate only?Expand

We price your tattoo based on information you provide and each time we define a price spread. During your session in the Studio, the tattoo may be extended or reduced, since we do not calculate the price per centimeter but instead adjust the size to fit its place. Pricing is based on the size, complexity, colors, style and details included in the tattoo. With larger projects, a tattoo price is broken down to daily sessions, and the total cost depends on the number of sessions necessary to make your tattoo.

How long does a session take?Expand

A one-day session is usually about 5-6 hours. You should add to that time needed to prepare for the session, and in the case of the first session also time necessary to lay-out and transfer the design. In the case of one-day sessions, please reserve your entire day for your appointment in the Studio, since there might be unexpected situations that prolong the duration of the session. In the case of smaller tattoos, we will try to estimate time needed for their rendering and inform you on making the appointment.

Do you offer tattoo cover up?Expand

Yes, we do cover old and unwanted tattoos with new designs. However, our possibilities depend on the design of the tattoo you already have. After consultation with the artist, we will tell you what we can or cannot do. Sometimes, before making a cover up, we suggest getting the tattoo lasered in a recommended location.

What are contraindications for tattooing?Expand

  • treatment with antibiotics, prolonged medication involving strong drugs, e.g. steroids
  • heart decease, e.g. hypertension
  • hemophilia, prolonged bleeding tendency
  • skin disorders and allergies
  • large scars healing of which has not been completed
  • pregnancy and breast feeding
  • post-operative period, raised temperature etc.
  • you need to inform your tattoo artist if you are HIV or Hepatitis B positive!

How can I get ready for the session?Expand

You need to rest and eat well before the session. While being tattooed your cloths may get stained, so it is worth wearing dark colors or bring other clothes to change. You should wear something suitable for the tattoo you are going to have to ensure the best possible access to the tattooed place (e.g. shorts in case you get your legs tattooed, shirts with their back cut in case of back piece tattoo etc.). You should shave and balm your skin before the session to prevent it from drying during the process. For longer sessions, we suggest taking snacks and drinks. Since the tattoo process might be burdensome, you may feel weakness, fatigue, shivers or even fever. Do not plan any activity after the session.

Since I am afraid it will hurt, can I use painkillers before getting my tattoo?Expand

Pain sensations are very subjective and depend much on the spot being tattooed. If you are concerned that making the tattoo may hurt, use numbing creams, such as Emla, Dr. Numb, and Swiss Medical. Apply cream on your skin at the tattooed place and cover it tight with plastic wrap about an hour before coming to the Studio. The wrap will be removed by the tattoo artist in the Studio. Time needed for numbing cream to take effect and wear off is very individual and it is usually between 30 minutes to 2 hours. This type of anesthetics cannot be repeated during the procedure since you need to wait at least an hour before the cream takes effect.
