AftercareA knowledge base written in Wrocław, not copied from the internet
We write every article in this base ourselves, based on what actually happens at our studio in Wrocław’s Psie Pole. If we recommend something in aftercare, it’s because we see the results on our clients’ healed tattoos — not because it ranked first in a search.
Where to start? Before a first visit, three guides do the most work: preparing for your first tattoo, the pain map and fresh tattoo aftercare. In summer, add the guide on protecting a tattoo from sun and water.
The categories speak for themselves: Aftercare covers healing and protection, Guides walk you through decisions and the session itself, Style & technique takes styles apart, and Inspiration suggests ideas — from lettering to mandalas.
Didn’t find your answer? The shortest route is a free consultation at the studio — and if the topic turns out bigger, it may well become the next article. That’s how most of this base came to be.

The questions that matter most
The price depends on size, complexity and time required. After a consultation at Parvata studio, we provide an individual quote — no hidden costs.
Fill out the contact form on this page or message us on Instagram. Our Wrocław tattoo artist will get in touch to discuss the design and date.
Yes. Every tattoo is a custom design. You can also choose one of the ready-made designs available in the "Designs" section.
The studio is at ul. Poświęcka 17/40 in Wrocław, in the Poświętne area on Psie Pole. Buses 129 and 248 stop on Poświęcka (note that 129 does not run through the centre), and the nearest tram loop — “Poświętne” on Żmigrodzka, lines 1, 7 and 15 — is about 1.3 km away, roughly a 16-minute walk. Door to door from the centre by public transport, allow 35–45 minutes; by car it is about 7 km to the Market Square and 8 km to the Main Station, realistically 15–25 minutes with traffic. The area lies outside the paid parking zone, so parking on the surrounding streets is free.
We tattoo from the age of 16 — with prior written consent from a parent or legal guardian, signed on-site at the studio. The chosen design must be approved by both the parent/guardian and the tattoo artist. Adults do not need consent.
Parvata Tattoo is typically open 10:00–22:00, usually Monday to Sunday — always by prior appointment. We agree on the exact date and time individually when you book.
For the first days you wear a second skin dressing, then you wash the tattoo with lukewarm water and apply a thin layer of the recommended cream. The outer skin regenerates in 2–4 weeks, and during that time you skip pools, saunas and direct sun. You get the full aftercare guide from us in writing after the session.
Placements without constant friction and constant sun stay readable longest — forearm, upper arm, back, calf. Hands, feet and joint creases fade fastest, which is where a touch-up is needed most often. Once healed, every piece is protected by SPF.
