Our process and booking
When is the next available appointment?
A suitable date depends on the project, artist and your available days. The team needs to check current availability; historical examples cannot establish a waiting time.

Read the full answerHow can I arrange an in-person consultation?
An in-person consultation is arranged in advance so the studio can prepare for your project. If a personal conversation matters to you, say so: a smaller budget does not automatically exclude it. The studio will discuss whether and how to arrange it.
Read the full answerHow can I book a tattoo session?
An enquiry or preferred date does not confirm an appointment. The agreed appointment is confirmed when the deposit is received; an exception must be agreed separately with the studio.
Read the full answerWhat information is needed for a project estimate?
An initial estimate needs the idea, placement, approximate size, height, preferred artist and available days. Examples or a description convey the idea; a cover-up also needs the existing work’s current condition.
Read the full answerIdea, artist and design
How can I book a particular artist?
If you want a specific artist, the date depends on their availability. You may discuss a suitable alternative if you wish. Changing artists is your choice; the same price or result is not promised.
Read the full answerCan my existing tattoo be covered up?
An artist assesses a cover-up using the current tattoo and the desired new idea. Not every combination can be achieved without changing the composition or size.
Read the full answerWhen will I see the design?
The finished design is normally shown and discussed at the studio, where it can be adapted with the artist. Showing it beforehand may be arranged separately. The general process does not override an individual agreement.
Read the full answerCan I change my idea or design?
Describe what you want to change: motif, style, placement, size or detail. Changes may affect preparation, artist and price and need agreement with the team. We do not automatically impose charges, cancellation or forfeiture of a deposit.
Read the full answerCan my idea work on the chosen placement?
The motif and composition are adapted to placement, size and body proportions. Identify the elements that matter most to you. Feasibility and design are agreed with the artist, without a guarantee of an exact copy.
Read the full answerPrice and payment
How is a tattoo price determined?
The price depends on the design, area, placement, style, detail and artist. Project details are needed for an initial estimate; a more precise assessment is agreed with the artist. Prices from other work are not an offer for your case.
Read the full answerWhat does a day-session price cover?
A day session price depends on the artist and the agreed work. If several sessions are needed, it is not automatically the total project price. The final price and possible changes are discussed with the artist, without automatic hourly recalculation.
Read the full answerWhich payment methods are available?
Under the described current process, the tattoo and remaining balance are paid in cash. A cash or bank-transfer deposit and its recipient are arranged with the team. Confirm the payment method for the specific artist; card or other options are not promised without confirmation.
Read the full answerWhen and how should I pay a deposit?
First agree the appointment and deposit arrangements with the studio. The agreed appointment is confirmed when the deposit is received; exceptions are agreed separately.
Read the full answerHow much is the deposit?
A usual deposit is 100 euros per session and is credited towards its price. The team confirms the specific amount and individual exceptions. This guide is not a payment instruction for your case.
Read the full answerPreparation and session
How many sessions will my project need?
The session count is estimated for the project and artist. Area, style, details, placement and how work progresses affect it; an exact count cannot be promised in advance.
Read the full answerHow long does a session last?
Duration depends on the artist and agreed scope. There is no fixed number of hours for all sessions; the visit also includes preparation and finishing.
Read the full answerCan I bring someone with me?
The studio prefers visits without companions. Participation in a consultation or discussion may be arranged if needed; this does not mean staying during tattooing.
Read the full answerHow should I prepare for a session?
Choose comfortable clothing allowing access to the placement and confirm the time, payment and individual arrangements. You may bring suitable food and headphones if needed; these are not mandatory for everyone.
Read the full answerWhat should I do if I am running late?
Tell the studio when you expect to arrive and clarify the appointment type. Without knowing the schedule, we cannot promise that the full planned work will remain possible. The team will discuss the next step.
Read the full answerRescheduling and cancellation
How can I cancel an appointment?
Under the described process, the studio asks for cancellation notice as early as possible, normally at least three days before the session. Borderline cases are discussed with the team rather than calculated by a strict 72-hour timer. With timely cancellation, the deposit is transferred to a newly agreed session under this process; this is not a promise of a cash refund. Exceptional circumstances and disputed terms require personal review.
Read the full answerHow can I reschedule a session?
Tell us which appointment you want to move and which new days suit you. Rescheduling depends on the calendar and agreement with the team. This request itself does not change your booking.
Read the full answerWhat if I become ill before my appointment?
Tell the studio as early as possible if you are ill before a session and identify the appointment. Discuss the next step with the team. Reporting illness does not itself cancel the booking or confirm that you can attend.
Read the full answerResult, touch-up and aftercare
When is a touch-up needed and what does it cost?
The studio team assesses the need, scope and cost of a touch-up individually. Describe what you would like corrected. We cannot promise free work or quote a price without reviewing the case.
Read the full answerHow long should I keep the dressing or film on?
We are preparing a detailed answer about dressings after a tattoo session. In the meantime, follow the individual instructions you received at the studio.
Read the full answerHow long does a tattoo take to heal?
We are preparing a detailed section on tattoo healing and aftercare.
Read the full answerHealth, age and individual circumstances
What if I take medication?
Discuss medication with the studio before the session and, where necessary, medical suitability with your treating clinician. This guide does not declare a particular medicine safe or change how it is taken.
Read the full answerCan someone under 18 get a tattoo?
The studio may consider an enquiry from age 16; at 16 or 17, a parent must visit in person and give written consent. This describes studio practice and is not legal advice.
Read the full answerWhat about allergies or skin concerns?
Quality materials do not guarantee the absence of an individual reaction. The studio can review practical questions and work results, but the guide does not diagnose symptoms or confirm medical safety.
Read the full answerCan I get a tattoo while breastfeeding?
The source does not treat breastfeeding alone as automatic studio rejection. This does not establish medical safety: discuss your circumstances with a clinician and the project with the studio.
