Emilia Adamska • Emaliart • Tattoo Artist

Preparing for a tattoo session takes a few simple steps. Get a good night's sleep and eat a proper meal no later than 2 hours before your appointment — a fed body copes much better with a few hours of work. Skip alcohol the day before, because it thins the blood and makes it harder for the skin to take the pigment. Do not tan the area we will tattoo, and do not use numbing creams without checking with us first. Wear comfortable clothes that easily expose the spot, and bring water and a snack for a longer session. If you take blood thinners, have a chronic condition or are pregnant, tell us before booking. Sterile supplies and everything else are on us at the Parvata Tattoo studio in Wrocław.

Yes — every tattoo by Emilia Adamska (Emaliart) is a custom design drawn from scratch for one person and their story; we do not copy other people's designs. Emilia is most at home where nature meets darkness: she draws mushrooms, plants and symbols of emotion in fine line, blackwork or an illustrative style, so the design looks like a page from a mysterious herbarium. She does both small minimalist tattoos and elaborate compositions. The design is included in the tattoo price, and before the session you get it to approve or adjust. Describe your idea in the form on the Parvata Tattoo website and attach inspiration — we will go through it at a free consultation at our studio at ul. Poświęcka 17/40 in Wrocław.

At Parvata Tattoo we tattoo from the age of 16. A minor comes to the studio together with a parent or legal guardian, who signs written consent on site — we do not accept consent sent remotely. The design must be approved by both the guardian and the artist doing the work. Adults need no consent at all, just an ID. We may decline a tattoo if we have doubts about someone's age or consider the design unsuitable for a minor — that is part of working responsibly, not an obstacle. For younger clients we usually suggest a smaller design in a spot that heals more easily and hurts less. Any questions are best cleared up at a free consultation at our studio in the Psie Pole district of Wrocław.

The surface of the skin heals in 2–4 weeks after a tattoo, while the deeper layers take up to 2 months to regenerate. For the first days the tattoo is protected by a second-skin dressing. Once it comes off, wash the skin gently with lukewarm water and apply a thin layer of the recommended cream — too much cream does as much harm as too little. While healing, avoid pools, saunas, long baths and sun, and do not pick the scabs even if the skin itches. Once healed, protect the tattoo with SPF. You get written aftercare instructions after your session at Parvata Tattoo in Wrocław, and after about 2 months we invite you for a free check-up — the first touch-up, if needed, is included in the price. Report strong redness, swelling or discharge to us straight away.

The Parvata Tattoo studio is at ul. Poświęcka 17/40, 51-128 Wrocław — in the Psie Pole district, on the Poświętne estate. Buses 129 and 248 stop on Poświęcka itself, and the nearest tram terminus, “Poświętne” on Żmigrodzka street, served by lines 1, 7 and 15, is about 1.3 km away — roughly a 16-minute walk. From the Market Square take tram 7, and from Wrocław Main Station tram 15 with no change; door to door usually takes 35–45 minutes. By car it is about 7 km from the Market Square, and the area is outside the paid parking zone, so you can park for free on nearby streets. We see clients by appointment only, Monday to Saturday, 10:00–22:00.
