Tattoo artist
in Bratislava

There are plenty of tattoo artists in Bratislava, and that is a good thing — it means you get to choose. This page is here so you can tell whether I am the right one for what you actually want.

Who I am right for

• You want Japanese work — a dragon, a koi, a hannya, a shishi, or a whole sleeve in an irezumi composition.
• You want american traditional — an eagle, a rose, a panther, an anchor, the classics with a heavy line.
• You care that the piece sits on your body rather than being stuck onto it.
• You have no finished design and you want someone to draw one for you.

Who I am not right for

If you want a realistic portrait, photorealism, or an exact copy of a tattoo you found on Pinterest, I am the wrong address. I will tell you so in my first reply — and gladly point you to someone who does that work.

Where to find me

Rose And Dagger, Karpatská 23, 811 05 Bratislava. I have my own chair there; I am not the studio owner. I come in for booked appointments, so always let me know in advance — contact details are here.

Karpatská 23 is in Staré Mesto, the old town, close to the main railway station. Easy to reach by public transport or by car, with street parking nearby.

What a tattoo costs in Bratislava

My rates: a minimum charge of 80 € and a day rate for large projects of 400 €. A small piece comes to 80 – 200 €, a medium one to 200 – 500 €, a sleeve from roughly 1200 €. The detail is in the price list.

People travel in for this

Besides Bratislava, clients come from Pezinok, Senec, Malacky and Trnava, and from Austria and Hungary. For larger projects the sessions can be planned so the journey is worth it — two longer days back to back, for instance.
