Tattoos

Since learning the craft of tattooing in 2019, many people have entrusted me with their skin. I've had the privilege of creating a wide variety of designs: memories of pets, childhood stories, friendship tattoos, or simply anything that people find beautiful.

Tattoos are far more than a fleeting trend. For thousands of years, people have used them to express something that is important to them. Who we were yesterday, a year ago, or twenty years ago doesn't disappear. These experiences, this self, and these tattoos remain a part of us.

Over time, tattoos become a multifaceted, personal patchwork: a collection of moments, meanings, and life phases that together tell the story of who we were and who we have become.

My style

Fine Line

A wide variety of motifs can be depicted using fine black lines. It is eye-catching, yet subtle and delicate. It also offers high contrast, thus providing the best chance for a motif that will look good not just for a few months, but for many years.

Black ink

There are some truly beautiful colored tattoos, but I've personally stuck with blackwork.

Motives

What works really well in my style, and what I love to tattoo, are nature motifs, flowers, animals, and mandalas. My style allows for a wide range of designs, including fantasy or folklore-inspired motifs. Contact me, and we can discuss your design idea!

Frequently asked questions about tattoos & appointments

1. Certain areas : I generally don't tattoo on the head, neck, toes, or hands. I also avoid elbows and knees and tattoo around them.

2. Certain motifs : I do not tattoo anything that glorifies violence or supports political views that I do not approve of.

3. Some styles: It's best if you look at my photos. I only work with fine, black lines.

I deliberately design my tattoo motifs together with you on the day of your appointment . Many clients bring references, ideas, or a specific feeling that can best be developed further in a personal conversation. This allows us to discuss details directly, adjust elements, and flexibly respond to new ideas.

This sometimes makes the appointment take a little longer, but it results in a very personal motif that feels truly right. And in the end, what matters most to me is that moment when it's clear:

"Yes! That's it." ♡

Make sure you get plenty of sleep, food, and drink beforehand. Feel free to bring some food or drinks with you, such as water and soda. Please refrain from alcohol, drugs, and blood-thinning medications.

Make sure you wear loose clothing that leaves the area to be tattooed uncovered, or bring something to change into.

Feel free to research various skincare products and what works well for your skin. I've had good experiences with Hustle Butter (the small tube is plenty), or simple dexpanthenol ointment. I do NOT recommend Vaseline, perfumed creams, or those containing zinc. I'll give you further skincare tips during our appointment, or of course, if you have any specific questions afterward.

Currently, I do not require any deposits, and since the prices are very individual (depending on size, location, level of detail, etc.), we will discuss this during our conversation after you have written to me.
