It depends on the design and size of your tattoo. A small, palm-sized tattoo can take 1-3 hours to complete; full sleeve tattoos take 6-10 hours, and very large tattoos can take up to 30 hours. Consult your technician before you book your appointment so you have a clear idea of exactly how long your tattoo will take to create.

Research artists whose portfolio style matches the tattoo you want. Look for clean line work, consistent shading, and healed tattoo photos in their portfolio. Book a consultation to discuss your concept, placement, and their approach before committing.

Tattoo shops offer custom tattoo design and application, cover-up tattoos, touch-ups, and often body piercing. Artists specialise in a range of styles including traditional, neo-traditional, realism, blackwork, watercolour, fine line, Japanese, and geometric.

Aftercare varies between tattoo studios, so follow your tattoo artist's advice to the letter. You’re likely to need to cover your new tattoo for the first 2-5 hours of having it, then wash it carefully with mild soap and lukewarm water before applying a thin layer of an unscented moisturiser to it. You’ll then either leave your tattoo exposed to the open air, or cover it with cling-film or gauze. Your tattoo artist will recommend an aftercare regime, but you’ll probably need to clean your tattoo 3-5 times a day.
