FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

If you are using your own transport, please note that there is a large free car park in front of the building and you are encouraged to use it.
Using one of the many taxi companies is also an efficient option.

Public transport:
SKM train line S2 towards Sulejówek.
From Warszawa-Śródmieście (i.e. the station located exactly between the Central Station and Metro Centrum, opposite the Palace of Culture, on the Jerozolimskie Avenue side), the train takes 19min.
There is also a crossover station with the M2 - the National Stadium. From this point it's just a 15min drive.
You get off at Warszawa-Wesoła station. The first ticket zone applies. The studio is 200 metres away, going left down the main street from the station.
The same train is accessible from Chopin Airport or the West Railway Station.
Bus 514 to the Politechnika metro or 173 to East Station are also available. Unfortunately, the bus equals a long journey. This is due to ongoing renovations as well as the number of stops.

After the session, the tattoo will be covered with a bandage, usually a secondskin type.
Depending on the tattooist's recommendations, leave it in place for 1-3 days.
Then remove the dressing, preferably by lightly soaking it.
Wash the exposed area with cool water and use neutral soap.
Dry the tattoo with a paper towel.
Then lubricate the fresh tattoo with the cream indicated by the tattoo artist.
You should moisturise the tattoo 3-4 times a day until the skin is fully broken out.
The healing process of a tattoo, is dependent on many individual factors.
Usually within 5-7 days, the top layer of the epidermis peels off, along with the visible ink particles in it. This is a natural process, but do not rush it and mechanically remove dry skin. Do not scratch or pluck.
After a period of desquamation, fresh skin can cause irritation and itching, and the skin needs to be moisturised for this condition to subside.
For the next three weeks, skin regeneration continues.
During this time, you need to be extra careful not to irritate or damage the area.

During the first few days after the tattoo, I order rest.
For the body, tattooing is a major challenge and focusing on recovery sometimes brings general weakness. Up to a week, it is a good idea to take a break in the increased effort.
Contact sports and the swimming pool I recommend returning no sooner than two weeks.
Light training, cardio or technique is possible after a week. However, without rubbing the freshly tattooed area.
Trauma to a freshly tattooed area can cause skin scarring and prolonged recovery.
Tanning:
In the first four weeks after getting a tattoo, it is best to abstain from sunbathing and full exposure.
Afterwards, it is a good idea to use sun creams to protect the skin itself and the tattoo.
Of course, it depends on preference. And it is an individual choice.

The most important thing is to come well rested, after a meal, in good shape and with a positive attitude. Do not consume alcohol or other stimulants 24 hours before your appointment.
Bring comfortable clothing(white is not the best choice when working with ink) that will not interfere with the area you are tattooing.
It is very important to be full before the session and not to forget to eat during the session. You can take something to drink with you, an audio book or headphones if you want to relax.
If you wish take flip-flops, a change of clothes, your favourite blanket or pillow. You can take your favourite mascot if it helps you with your session.

It's an intimate space where we stay one-on-one with you. Sometimes I have the pleasure of hosting friendly tattooers of the country and from around the world. 
 
Therefore, the most important thing is:
-to make you feel comfortable
-communicate all your needs and feelings to me
-we address each other as 'you
-trust in the creative process, I have 22 years of experience in tattoo creation. 
- it is a long process, better be alone 
-try to make your own decisions on the project.
-don't be afraid to talk, I am very open to dialogue and discussion on any topic. 
-if you prefer to eat a meal with delivery let me know
-Try to keep the sounds on your phone muted. I find it harder to concentrate during a session when you're watching videos on your phone and there are weird sounds all the time. 
 
All this so that we can go through our tattooing process in the best possible way.

You don't have to. All you need is a general concept, emotion or theme you want to include in the tattoo. Based on your description and inspiration, I prepare the design - individually, for you. I do not copy other people's work.

Definitely not. I have been tattooing since 2003. During this time I have had the opportunity to do all styles and themes. And that's why I don't refuse any designs or ideas as long as they are in line with morals and my ethics.
Over the years I have developed my own unique style of tattooing. Neotraditional tattooing is a modern form based on classical techniques. It is characterised by permanence, strong contrast and spatiality. It mainly results from the combination of different forms of tattooing. Orient, realism, traditional American tattooing. This gives me the opportunity to create a story written on the skin so as to achieve unique compositions. I try to perfectly match the pattern to your anatomy in order to perfectly emphasise it and additionally anticipate the ageing processes of the skin.

The design is done by me during the session. I have a reasonable amount of time allocated for this so that the whole process is unhurried. I execute it after final consultation with you and seeing the tattooed area live.
During the consultation I discuss all the details with you and get to know in depth your expectations for the tattoo. I believe in trusting the process and a shared vision. That is why I prepare the design individually with you and consult certain aspects that bother me.
If there are elements to change then of course I follow your lead. I also try to have a dialogue as to why I did the project the way I did and what my goal is in doing so.

Because of his experience, he performs cover ups without stress.
In many situations it depends on your openness and the horizons of possibilities you have. Most of my large compositions are based on covering larger or smaller tattoos.
The situation is never hopeless if you are open to solutions.
However, there are key principles to bear in mind.
-from a dark tattoo, I will not do a light one
-from the coloured one I will not make shaded
-from a big tattoo I will not make a small one

Tattoo pricing is always based individually on the design, the person and expectations.
No tattoo space is the same and leave the features to be included in a given tattoo.
I provide a quote with an online consultation bad knows live. Use the form and I will get back to you quickly with a quote.

A typical session lasts between 4 and 8 hours, depending on the design. During this time I make the design, then after your approval we move on with the tattooing.
The tattooing itself takes no more than 5 hours per session. Due to his experience and technical skills, he works very efficiently. This is enough time to do a larger format tattoo with all the details. If, of course, there is no undue hardship on your part.
The session includes time for eating, drinking and resting.
