Tattoo requests & consultations
You can submit a request through the contact form on the website. Please include a description of your idea, the placement, approximate size, visual references, and the dates you are available.
Yes. A non-refundable deposit is required to confirm your appointment. The deposit will be deducted from the final price of the tattoo.
If you need to reschedule, please provide sufficient notice. Changes made outside the established notice period may result in the loss of your deposit.
You may cancel your appointment, but deposits are non-refundable. The deposit compensates for the time reserved and the work completed in preparation for your project.
Depending on the project, the design will usually be presented a few days before the appointment or on the day of the session. Small adjustments can be made to ensure that the composition works correctly with your body.
These projects are evaluated individually. Clear photographs of the area are required to determine what options may be possible.
Get a good night's sleep, eat before the session, stay hydrated, and avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours beforehand. Do not apply numbing cream without discussing it with the artist first.
Bring a valid form of identification, comfortable clothing that provides easy access to the area being tattooed, and something to eat if the session will be long.
Space may be limited, so please ask before bringing a guest. Children are not permitted during the tattoo session.
Please ask before using any numbing product. Some creams can affect the texture of the skin and make the tattooing process more difficult.
The surface of the skin usually takes between two and four weeks to heal. Complete recovery of the deeper layers may take several additional weeks. Healing time depends on the size of the tattoo, its placement, and the aftercare provided.
It is generally recommended to wait at least 48 hours before exercising. For intense workouts, waiting between three and seven days may be advisable, depending on the size and placement of the tattoo.
Avoid any activity that causes excessive sweating, friction, pressure, or stretching over the tattooed area. If the tattoo is located near a joint, underneath tight athletic clothing, or in an area directly involved in your workout, wait until the skin is no longer tender, swollen, or oozing.
When you return to the gym, wear clean, loose-fitting clothing, prevent the tattoo from touching shared machines, benches, or other surfaces, and gently wash the area after exercising. Do not swim or use saunas or hot tubs until the tattoo is completely healed.
At the end of your session, you will receive specific instructions based on the type of bandage used and the characteristics of your tattoo. Always follow those directions over any general recommendations.
Wash your hands thoroughly before touching the area. When it is time to remove the bandage, gently wash the tattoo with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Do not use a sponge or scrub the skin. Pat it dry with a clean paper towel or allow it to air-dry.
Apply a very thin layer of the recommended product. The skin should remain moisturized, but it should not be covered with a thick or greasy layer. Applying too much product can trap moisture and irritate the area.
Mild flaking, tightness, or itching is normal during the healing process. Do not scratch, rub, peel, or pick at scabs, as this can affect the final result and increase the risk of infection.
Until the tattoo is completely healed, avoid soaking it in baths, swimming pools, hot tubs, lakes, or the ocean. You should also avoid direct sun exposure, saunas, exercise that causes excessive sweating, and tight clothing that may rub against the area.
Once the tattoo has healed, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to help preserve its definition and contrast. If you notice severe or increasing pain, excessive heat, significant swelling, discharge, fever, or redness that continues to spread, seek advice from a healthcare professional.
Any touch-ups required after healing will be evaluated individually. Damage caused by improper aftercare, sun exposure, or picking at the skin may not be included.
Getting tattooed during pregnancy is not recommended. If you are breastfeeding or have a medical condition, consult your healthcare provider beforehand.
You must be at least 18 years old and present a valid government-issued photo ID, in accordance with applicable regulations.
Puedes enviar una solicitud a través del formulario de contacto de la web. Incluye una descripción de tu idea, la zona del cuerpo, el tamaño aproximado, referencias visuales y las fechas en las que estarías disponible.
Sí. Para confirmar la cita se requiere un depósito no reembolsable. El depósito se descontará del precio final del tatuaje.
Si necesitas cambiar la fecha, deberás avisar con suficiente antelación. Los cambios realizados fuera del plazo establecido pueden provocar la pérdida del depósito.
Puedes cancelar la cita, pero los depósitos no son reembolsables. Esto compensa el tiempo reservado y el trabajo realizado en la preparación del proyecto.
El diseño normalmente se presenta unos días antes de la cita o el mismo día, dependiendo del proyecto. Se podrán realizar pequeños ajustes para asegurar que la composición funciona correctamente sobre el cuerpo.
Estos proyectos se evalúan individualmente. Es necesario enviar fotografías claras de la zona para determinar qué opciones son posibles.
Descansa bien, come antes de la sesión, mantente hidratado y evita consumir alcohol durante las 24 horas anteriores. No apliques cremas anestésicas sin consultarlo previamente.
Lleva una identificación válida, ropa cómoda que permita acceder fácilmente a la zona que se va a tatuar y algo de comer si la sesión será larga.
El espacio puede ser limitado, por lo que es recomendable consultar antes de llevar acompañantes. No se permite la presencia de niños durante la sesión.
Consulta antes de utilizar cualquier producto anestésico. Algunas cremas pueden afectar la textura de la piel y dificultar el proceso del tatuaje.
La parte superficial suele tardar entre dos y cuatro semanas. La recuperación completa de las capas internas de la piel puede prolongarse durante varias semanas más. El tiempo de curación depende del tamaño del tatuaje, la zona del cuerpo y el cuidado posterior.
Se recomienda esperar al menos 48 horas antes de realizar ejercicio. Para entrenamientos intensos, puede ser conveniente esperar entre tres y siete días, dependiendo del tamaño y la ubicación del tatuaje.
Evita cualquier actividad que produzca sudor excesivo, roce, presión o estiramiento sobre la zona tatuada. Si el tatuaje está en una articulación, debajo de ropa deportiva ajustada o en un área directamente implicada en el entrenamiento, espera hasta que la piel no presente sensibilidad, inflamación ni secreción.
Cuando regreses al gimnasio, utiliza ropa limpia y holgada, evita que el tatuaje entre en contacto con máquinas, bancos o superficies compartidas y lava suavemente la zona después de entrenar. No practiques natación ni utilices saunas o jacuzzis hasta que el tatuaje esté completamente curado.
Al finalizar la sesión recibirás instrucciones específicas según el tipo de vendaje utilizado y las características del tatuaje. Sigue siempre esas indicaciones antes que cualquier recomendación general.
Lávate bien las manos antes de tocar la zona. Cuando corresponda retirar el vendaje, lava suavemente el tatuaje con agua tibia y un jabón neutro sin perfume. No utilices esponjas ni frotes la piel. Sécalo mediante pequeños toques con papel limpio o déjalo secar al aire.
Aplica una capa muy fina del producto recomendado. La piel debe mantenerse hidratada, pero no cubierta por una capa espesa o grasienta. Utilizar demasiado producto puede retener humedad e irritar la zona.
Durante la curación es normal que aparezca una ligera descamación, tirantez o picor. No rasques, frotes ni retires costras o pieles, ya que esto puede afectar al resultado y aumentar el riesgo de infección.
Hasta que el tatuaje esté completamente curado, evita sumergirlo en bañeras, piscinas, jacuzzis, lagos o el mar. Evita también la exposición directa al sol, las saunas, el ejercicio que produzca sudor excesivo y la ropa ajustada que pueda rozar la zona.
Una vez curado, utiliza protector solar de amplio espectro para ayudar a conservar la definición y el contraste del tatuaje. Si observas dolor intenso o creciente, calor excesivo, inflamación importante, secreción, fiebre o enrojecimiento que se extiende, consulta con un profesional sanitario.
Los retoques necesarios después de la curación se evaluarán individualmente. Los daños causados por un cuidado incorrecto, exposición al sol o manipulación de la piel pueden no estar incluidos.
No se recomienda tatuarse durante el embarazo. Si estás amamantando o tienes alguna condición médica, consulta previamente con tu médico.
Debes tener al menos 18 años y presentar una identificación oficial válida, de acuerdo con la normativa aplicable.
