Question 2

Can I shower after getting a tattoo?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can shower after getting a tattoo! Keep the water lukewarm and avoid very hot temperatures if the area feels sensitive. Keep showers short, gently rinse the tattoo without scrubbing, and pat it dry with a clean towel. Avoid soaking the tattoo for extended periods.

Question 3

Do color tattoos tend to fade faster than black and grey tattoos?

Accepted Answer

This is a common question, but the answer is more nuanced. The first and most important factor is tone, not color. Lighter tones fade faster than darker tones, regardless of whether the tattoo is colorful or black & gray. Pastels, light yellows, light blues, and soft pinks naturally lose contrast faster than deep blacks or dark shades. The second key factor is the tattoo artist's technique. Color pigments — especially bright and vibrant colors — are thicker than black ink. The tattoo artist must know exactly how to implant the ink at the correct depth in the skin. If the ink is not placed properly, it won't settle well and may fade prematurely. When colors are applied correctly and with the right technique, color tattoos can age beautifully and last for many years.

Question 4

How long after getting a tattoo should I wait before returning to exercise or physical activity?

Accepted Answer

In general, there is no strict restriction on physical activity after getting a tattoo. Tattoo aftercare can be divided into two main phases. Phase one — from the tattoo session until a scab develops (about 3-4 days). During this phase, light to moderate physical activity is usually fine. The most important thing is hygiene — making sure the tattooed area is cleaned properly after any workout. As long as the activity doesn't involve heavy friction, excessive sweating for long hours, or direct contact with the tattoo, it is generally safe. Phase two — once the scab has developed (about the following 1-1.5 weeks). At this stage, avoid activities that could tear, rub, or pull off the scab. High-contact sports or movements that put strong tension on the tattooed area are best avoided until the skin finishes healing.

Question 5

Is there parking available near the studio?

Accepted Answer

There is street parking available near the studio, based on availability. Parking in the area is regulated, so make sure to use Pango when required. Because cars in this area change frequently, you may get lucky and find a spot nearby. To save time and avoid stress, we recommend using one of the nearby parking lots: Hayarkon St. 112 or Tel Nordau parking on Frishman St. 28.

Question 6

What should I do to prepare for my tattoo session?

Accepted Answer

To prepare for your tattoo session, get a good night's sleep and eat a hearty meal beforehand. Avoid alcohol or drugs, and arrive well-rested. For the best results, moisturize the area to be tattooed with unscented lotion for two weeks prior. Being in good physical condition helps ensure a smooth process and great results.
