Frequently asked questions about the studio
Where exactly is the tattoo studio?
At Borgfelder Straße 64, 20537 Hamburg-Borgfelde. It is a 6-minute walk from Burgstraße underground station (U2, U4), and the bus stops right outside. From the main station it takes about 12 to 15 minutes.
When is the studio open?
Monday – Friday · 12:00 – 18:00. Please call ahead or arrange an appointment before your visit, as we are not at the studio at all times. At weekends we are there by appointment.
How much will my tattoo cost?
We only quote a price once we know your design, and that is deliberate: size, placement, level of detail and style determine the number of hours, and the hours determine the price. As a guide: we work in sessions of five to six hours. A hand-sized portrait is usually one session; large realism projects such as a sleeve or a back piece take several, for clients travelling in ideally on two or three consecutive days. Send us your motif, the size you have in mind and the placement via the booking request and you will receive an honest price range with our reply. The deposit is credited in full on the day.
How do I choose the right artist for my tattoo?
On our website you'll find the portfolios of all our artists. Choose based on style and skill. If you're unsure, we're happy to advise you on artist selection free of charge.
How does a tattoo consultation work?
A consultation is completely non-binding for you. We discuss your ideas and wishes and find the best placement, so your artist can think through the design in peace and advise you accordingly. The finished design is not created on the consultation day itself. You'll also get a rough estimate of the cost during the conversation.
Do you accept spontaneous walk-ins?
This rarely happens with us and is announced in advance on our social media channels. Under certain conditions a spontaneous walk-in is sometimes possible, though – best to just come in and ask.
What hygiene standards do you follow?
We work to strict standards: sterile disposable materials, regular disinfection of work areas and consistent use of gloves. Our artists are trained and certified in hygiene procedures according to Hamburg hygiene standards.
