How do I get an appointment?
- Pick the artist whose style best suits the tattoo you want to get.
- Send us a request via the booking form. Please fill in the form to the best of your abilities and read all the information we provide. The more complete your request, the better we can respond to you.
- Once you’ve completed the form, we’ll send you a confirmation via email.
- Please allow up to 14 days to receive a positive or negative reply.
- Please read carefully through our reply and the info material we send along with it.
- We’ll provide you with a few options regarding available appointments. Please note that these are the only options available.
- If you want to accept one of the appointments, you can follow the instructions in the email and send us a down payment within three business days.
- The down payment will be deducted from the final price of your tattoo.
- Again: please read the information provided in the email carefully, especially regarding payment methods, our address, etc.
What happens to my down payment if I have to cancel my appointment?
- It’s fine if you absolutely can’t make it to an appointment, but we’d ask you to consider when confirming an appointment that cancelling it later usually results in a financial loss for us because we can’t give it to someone else on short notice. So please check carefully if you really can and want to accept an appointment.
- We can pay you back a maximum amount of 100€ if you cancel at least one month prior to your appointment. If you cancel after that, we’ll have to retain the entire sum.
- We require a down payment not only for reserving an appointment for you but also as an advance payment for your artist to prepare for your appointment.
What do I have to take into account on the day before my appointment?
- Please don’t take any blood-thinning drugs such as Aspirin for 24 hours before your appointment.
- Don’t drink alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment.
- Please come to our studio well-rested, and do eat something and drink some water before your appointment.
- Bring some snacks and something to drink.
What happens during my appointment?
- The exact process differs with all our tattoo artists (for example, only some send you the design beforehand), but we’ll explain what you can expect in the confirmation email.
- There will be enough time before the actual tattooing starts to discuss the design, size, and placement of your tattoo with your artist and adapt it to your wishes.
- Don’t be afraid to tell your artist about your wishes as they will do their best to get you the tattoo you want in a manner you feel comfortable with.
- You can always tell your artist if you need a break during the tattooing process. Whether it’s a bathroom break, getting something to drink, or doing some stretches – please listen to your body and its needs.
Can I bring someone else?
- Please come alone. You and your experienced tattoo artist are the best team there is to decide which tattoo fits you best. Your opinion is the only one that matters because your tattoo is going to remain on your skin forever.
- If your family or friends want to take you to the studio or pick you up after, they are welcome to stay in our outdoor area for a bit.
Let’s talk money…
- Our tattoo artists calculate their prices differently, but you can expect an hourly rate of about 170-270€.
- You’re on the clock once your artist receives you in the studio.
- The final price consists of the costs for the design, necessary preparations, equipment, and administration costs, plus the artist’s rate.
- If this sounds like a lot to you, please consider that tattoos stay on your skin forever – they’re not short-lived accessories. Our artists conform to the strictest of hygiene regulations and focus only on you and your design to create a unique work of art on your skin.
What do I have to consider regarding sunbathing, holidays, sports, or swimming?
- You shouldn’t expose your skin to too much sunlight for about a month before and after your appointment. This means that if you’re planning a nice long summer holiday, you might not want to book an appointment directly after, and much less before.
- If you can’t avoid the sun, please use sunscreen SPF 50+ and stick to the shade as much as possible.
- You cannot go swimming for the first two weeks after your appointment. Wait for a month or so before you take a swim in the ocean and expose your tattoo to the sun.
- You can get back to working out/doing sports two weeks after your appointment.
What does the aftercare process look like?
- First things first: aftercare is as important as the tattooing process itself and requires a lot of attention
- Your tattoo artist will talk you through the details at your appointment
- Once your tattoo is done, your artist will apply a stretch film on the tattooed patch of skin. Keep it on for two hours or so, then you can wash and disinfect your hands and remove it carefully. Gently clean the area with water and a paper tissue and let it dry. You can throw away the film, you won’t need it anymore
- You should gently wash your tattoo with water and paper tissues twice a day (mornings and evenings) for a week
- Apply perfume-free lotion (specialized tattoo crème or petroleum jelly works best) 3-4 times a day for 3-4 weeks. Rub in the lotion rather than slathering it on – you shouldn’t leave a film on your skin. Take care that the affected area does not dry out
- It’s better to wear loose clothing over the tattooed area for a while
- It’s completely normal if your tattoo appears a bit dry after a week or so. Just stick to your care regimen
- If you detect any scabs, please don’t scratch or remove them. These might last for a few days, but you’ll see them break up and fall off soon
- Since the first month after getting a new tattoo is extremely important for the healing process: don’t go swimming in the ocean and protect your tattoo from the sun. You should also avoid strenuous sports, pools and the bathtub for two weeks after your appointment
Any age requirements?
- You have to be at least 18 years old to get a tattoo from us.
