Please read the information below before your session. This will allow both you and your tattoo artist to focus fully on creating a unique tattoo. Proper preparation is the first step toward a beautiful, long-lasting result.

Eat a wholesome meal

Before visit at White Rat Tattoo, naszym studio in Warsaw, eat a filling and well-balanced meal. Stress before a first or subsequent tattoo session often causes a loss of appetite; however, getting tattooed is physically demanding and requires an adequate amount of energy.

A nutritious meal helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, reduces the risk of feeling faint, and enables your body to better cope with the discomfort of getting a tattoo. This makes the session much more comfortable for both you and the tattoo artist.

Avoid sun

If You are planing tattoo in Warsaw, ensure your skin is in good condition. Avoid tanning and prolonged sun exposure for a few days before your appointment.

Tattoos are not performed on skin that is tanned, sunburned, irritated, abraded, wounded, cut, or has undergone chemical peels.

Healthy, unirritated skin allows the tattoo artist to execute the tattoo precisely and significantly influences the proper healing process.

Ensure proper hydration

Drink the right amount of water regularly in the days leading up to the session. A well-hydrated body means better-prepared skin.

Proper hydration increases skin elasticity, facilitates tattooing, and promotes faster recovery after the session. It's one of the easiest ways to prepare for your appointment at tattoo studio..

Moisturize your skin

For about a week before your appointment, regularly apply a moisturizing lotion or cream, ideally once or twice a day.

Well-hydrated skin is more elastic, making it easier for the skin to take the ink and better able to withstand the tattooing process. This has a positive impact on both comfort during the session and the subsequent healing of the tattoo.

But remember to do not apply lotion or cream immediately before the appointment in tattoo studio.

Don't rush

Plan your day so that you don't have to rush. Allow enough time and do not schedule important meetings or other commitments immediately after the session.

Getting a tattoo requires focus, precision, and a calm atmosphere. Rushing can negatively impact the client's comfort and the tattoo artist's work. In White Rat Tattoo Warsaw we always prioritize the highest quality, which is why it is worth allowing yourself plenty of time.

Come sober

Arrive at your tattoo session completely sober and well-rested.

Do not consume alcohol or intoxicants before your appointment. Also, do not use numbing creams without first consulting your tattoo artist. If you plan to use a numbing products, please discuss it with us beforehand—if necessary, we use only proven products available at our studio in Warsaw.
