Financial Questions

Questions about finances

01 How much will my desired tattoo cost?

The cost of your tattoo depends on various factors such as size, detail, and placement. For an accurate price quote or a non-binding appointment request, please fill out our inquiry form and include relevant information and photos, or get advice directly at our studio. We can then give you a more precise estimate.

02 Why do I have to make a deposit?

The deposit secures your appointment and covers part of the planning and preparation costs. It ensures that the artist has the necessary time to prepare your design and secures your place in the schedule.

03 Can I get my deposit back?

If you cancel your appointment 72 hours before the scheduled time, you will receive a full refund of your deposit. Otherwise, we have to retain a cancellation fee of at least €200. If you do not show up for the agreed appointment without timely cancellation, your entire deposit will be forfeited. This is because the tattoo artist has reserved time and resources for you that cannot be used otherwise. However, if we have to cancel your appointment for any reason, you will of course receive your deposit back in full.

04 What payment methods do you accept?

Each tattoo artist settles their own accounts at our studio. Therefore, please ask your artist or our shop manager about the correct payment method before your appointment. Most accept cash or PayPal. The deposit can usually be made by bank transfer or PayPal, while the remaining amount must be paid in cash on the day of the tattoo.

05 Do you offer financing options?

Currently, we do not offer financing options. We recommend saving for your tattoo and planning the costs in advance.

06 What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule my appointment?

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please contact us as early as possible. Cancellations or rescheduling must be communicated at least 72 hours in advance. Otherwise, part of the deposit (€200) will be retained. With timely notification, we will try to arrange a new appointment with the same deposit.

07 Do you offer discounts or special promotions?

Occasionally, we offer special promotions or discounts, especially during specific events. Subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on social media to stay informed about such offers.

01 How do I choose the right tattoo studio?

When choosing a tattoo studio, you should look for cleanliness, professionalism, and the quality of work. Read reviews, look at portfolios, and visit the studio in person to get a sense of it.

02 Is it safe to get a tattoo?

Yes, it is safe to get a tattoo, provided you go to a professional studio that adheres to high hygiene standards. Our artists use sterile disposable materials and follow strict hygiene protocols to prevent infections.

03 Can I get a tattoo if I am sick?

It is not advisable to get a tattoo if you are sick. Your immune system is weakened, which can affect healing and increase the risk of infection. Wait until you have fully recovered before getting your tattoo.

The healing time for a tattoo varies depending on the size, placement, and your individual healing process. Generally, it takes about 2 to 3 weeks for the outer layer of skin to heal. However, complete healing of the deeper skin layers can take several months.

05 What should I bring to my appointment?

Bring a valid ID to confirm your age. It’s also a good idea to bring snacks and drinks, especially if you have a longer session. Wear comfortable clothing that makes the area to be tattooed easily accessible.

Your satisfaction is very important to us. If you are not satisfied with your tattoo, please contact us as soon as possible to discuss the issue. We will do our best to find a solution, whether through a touch-up or other measures.

10 What should I avoid after my tattoo session?

Avoid exposing your new tattoo to direct sunlight, scratching or rubbing it, and bathing in pools, hot tubs, or natural waters until it is fully healed. Do not wear tight or abrasive clothing over the tattoo and follow your tattoo artist's aftercare instructions.
