FAQs

How do I book an appointment?
Kuinka varaan ajan?

The booking methods vary between artists. You can check on each artist’s own page their preferred way of booking. Please contact the artist directly (in their preferred way) for booking!

How can I prepare for my appointment?
Kuinka valmistaudun tatuoitavaksi?

Sleep and eat well beforehand. One week before your appointment you can start moisturising the site of the upcoming tattoo. Do not shave the area yourself! Your artist will do that for you.

Dress in comfortable clothing that will allow your artist to easily access the area you want to have tattooed. Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.

You can bring something to help you pass the time, snacks and drinks. The studio has a fridge and a microwave.

What payment methods do you accept?
Mitkä maksutavat teillä käy?

Accepted payment methods vary between artists. Ask your artist what is their preferred way of payment is!

Can I bring a friend with me?
Voinko tuoda ystävän mukanani?

Personal assistants are welcome to our studio. You can also bring a friend for support. Please let your artist know beforehand that you’re bringing other people with you.

During tattooing your friend needs to know how to behave and not to cause dangerous situations or otherwise disturb the artist. Waiting around can be boring, so it’s a good idea to prepare for that. It’s important to let the artist work in peace, which is why we kindly ask you to not bring your whole family with you.

Are animals welcome to the studio?
Ovatko eläimet tervetulleita studiolle?

Animals aren’t allowed inside the studio due to hygiene reasons, excluding service animals who are of course welcome. Let your artist know beforehand if you’re accompanied by a service animal, as the studio has to be thoroughly cleaned after animal visitors.

Studion tiloihin ei päästetä eläimiä hygieniasyistä, lukuunottamatta opaskoiria, jotka ovat tietysti tervetulleita. Kerrothan artistillesi, jos saavut opaskoiran kanssa, sillä studio täytyy siivota erityisellä tarkkuudella eläinvieraiden jälkeen.

Is your studio accessible?
Onko studionne esteetön?

Studio Kyy isn’t fully accessible. For more details, please consult our accessibility information page.

Is your studio vegan?
Onko studionne vegaaninen?

Studio Kyy isn’t vegan. For more details, you can ask your tattoo artist if their tattoo materials are vegan safe.

How do you accommodate allergies?
Kuinka huomioitte allergiat?

We strive to accommodate our clients’ allergies as best as we can in our work.

You can ask for a detailed list of ingredients used in our tattooing products. Ingredient lists of our inks can always be read at our studio. If you know (or suspect) you have allergies, let your artist know, so they can look for alternative products.

Is it okay to be quiet during my session?
Saako tatuointiajalla olla hiljaa?

Yes, it’s okay! If you’re nervous about talking with your artist or you otherwise would prefer to concentrate on other stuff when being tattooed, you can let your artist know during the consultation, when booking your session or once you arrive to the studio.

It’s also possible to have a silent tattoo session. During a silent session the artist talks only when necessary (such as asking if you feel OK or when they need you to change position). Tattoo session is always for your benefit – we don’t get upset or judgemental if you want to chill in silence! You’re welcome to bring your headphones, a portable gaming system, etc. to help you pass the time. We have plenty of books and comics at the studio as well.

How do I care for my tattoo?
Kuinka hoidan tatuointiani?

Your artist will provide you with both verbal and written aftercare instructions, but you can also find them here.
