Real reviews from our clients

Andrea me ha tratado super bien!! Me ha echo la línia muy fina, y el estudio super bonito. Una experiència increible
Patricia
Me he realizado ya en este estudio varios tatuajes. El diseño del espacio, el trato amable, la higiene de cada esquina y la delicadeza con la que tatúan serían factores que destacaría de este estudio. Un lugar donde te hacen sentir cómodo y seguro. Completamente recomendado!
Pedro
Si pudiera ponerle 1000 estrellas se las daría porque me encantó! El tatuaje quedó increíble, unas líneas perfectas y el diseño súper lindo. No me tatúo en ningún otro sitio que no sea aquí.
Yamila
This was my first tattoo and they were so kind and gentle and they worked with me and my sister and we got matching tattoos and it was the best experience I could hope for! 10/10
Farrell
Me tatué con Mirna, y solo puedo decir cosas buenas. El sitio es súper bonito y acogedor, ultra limpio y todos muy agradables. La buena vibra está en cada rincón. No es la primera vez que me tatúo con Mirna, pero he podido ir viendo su recorrido porque llevo varios años tatuándome con ella, teniendo tres piezas maravillosas. Con cada tatuaje ha ido mejorando, y es un placer y todo un honor poder llevar en mi piel su evolución.
Sun
Me encantó el estudio y las chicas son súper profesionales y agradables. Especialmente Eugenia quien fue la que me tatuó, entendiendo la idea que quería y lo llevó aún mejor con sus detalles.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does a tattoo usually cost?

Prices depend on the placement, the complexity of the design and the size of the tattoo. Send us a reference, the placement and an approximate size and we will give you a quote. Large pieces are worked per session, and we always agree the price before we start — no surprises.

Can I get tattooed without an appointment?

Yes. We take walk-ins every day within our opening hours (11:30 to 20:00). It depends on the day’s schedule and the size of the piece, so if you can, message us on WhatsApp first and we will confirm availability.

Can I exercise after getting a tattoo?

Better to wait. For the first 3 or 4 days it is best to avoid intense exercise: sweat, clothing friction and stretching skin can irritate the area and pull ink out. After that you can go back gradually, keeping the area from rubbing on machines or mats until it is fully closed.

Can I go to the beach or swim after a tattoo?

Not for the first 2–3 weeks. No sea, pool, jacuzzi or baths: soaking a fresh tattoo is the fastest route to an infection. Quick showers are fine, without scrubbing. And keep it out of direct sun, covered or with full protection once it has closed.

How do I take care of a new tattoo?

Wash the area 2 or 3 times a day with lukewarm water and neutral soap, pat dry with clean paper and apply a very thin layer of healing cream. Do not scratch, do not pick the scabs, and avoid sun, pools and tight clothing. We give you written instructions when you leave, and you can message us if anything looks off.

What tattoo styles do you do?

We work in traditional and kawaii Japanese, fine line, micro-realism, realism, neo-traditional, colour, anime, illustrative and small pieces. Each artist has their own specialty, so the best approach is to look at the portfolios and pick who fits your idea; if you are unsure, message us and we will point you in the right direction.
