FAQs - Spring Tattoo

Question 1

Do I need to book tattoo appointments in advance?

Accepted Answer

Booking ahead is essential. It lets me dedicate the right amount of time to your consultation/tattooing appointment.

Question 2

Do I need a consultation appointment before getting a tattoo?

Accepted Answer

For most designs, a consultation appointment is necessary before the actual tattooing. During this consultation, I'll discuss placement, size, and artistic ideas with you, and create a sketch of the design I'll use during the tattoo process. While very simple tattoos might not require a separate consultation, I recommend booking one to ensure I have a clear understanding of your preferences before we begin the tattooing process. I completely understand that it can be challenging to put into words exactly what tattoo you're looking for, and that's perfectly fine. It's actually where my artistic skills come into play – I'll craft a design specifically customized to what you need. To give me a better sense of the tattoo you're envisioning, I recommend collecting and bringing several reference images, ideally on a USB drive.

Question 3

How do you price tattoo services?

Accepted Answer

I charge by the hour, with a minimum fee for smaller tattoos. The final price depends on the design's complexity and size.

Question 4

What should I know about tattoo aftercare?

Accepted Answer

I share equal responsibility with you for the success of your tattoo. I deliver 50% through my skill and application, while you contribute the other 50% by following proper aftercare instructions. I recommend scheduling a follow-up visit about one month after your tattoo so I can evaluate how well it has healed.

Question 5

Can I get a tattoo during summer vacation?

Accepted Answer

For summer tattoo appointments, ensure your skin is in good condition without any sunburns or peeling. Tattoos cannot be applied to damaged skin. If you're visiting during summer vacation, swimming in the ocean or swimming pools with a fresh tattoo is prohibited for the fear of getting infected, so I recommend you schedule your tattoo for the final days of your stay.

Question 6

What are the do's and don'ts before getting a tattoo?

Accepted Answer

Make sure to get a good night's sleep before your tattoo appointment. Alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited on the day of your session. Arriving under the influence of any substances (alcohol, marijuana, or other drugs) will lead to your appointment being canceled. Consider bringing candy or sweets to your appointment to maintain your blood sugar levels during the tattooing process.

Question 7

Do you offer tattoo cover-up services?

Accepted Answer

Successfully covering an existing tattoo with new artwork is generally recognized as a challenging task. An effective cover-up tattoo doesn't need to completely conceal every inch of the original design. The primary purpose of a successful cover-up is to redirect attention away from the previous tattoo rather than hiding it entirely. When planning a cover-up tattoo, a general guideline is that the new design should be larger than the original to ensure effective and attractive coverage. Using colored tattoos rather than black and grey shading is a more effective approach for covering up existing tattoos. The opacity of color pigments provides better coverage, whereas grey shades tend to be more translucent.

Question 8

What is your experience and background as a tattoo artist?

Accepted Answer

I'm Aviv Rotshas, a professional tattoo artist with 20 years of experience. I trained under Avi Vanunu at Psycho Tattoo (2006-2011) and founded Spring Tattoo in Tel Aviv in 2012. I specialize in custom tattoo designs across various styles, with particular expertise in Japanese traditional art. I've completed over 3000 tattoos with 8000+ hours of tattooing experience and maintain a 4.9/5 rating from 189 Google reviews.

Question 9

What safety and hygiene protocols do you follow?

Accepted Answer

I follow strict hygiene protocols and use only top-quality equipment and materials for all tattoo procedures. My safety-first approach ensures client safety and well-being throughout the entire tattooing process. All equipment is properly sterilized, and I maintain the highest standards of cleanliness in my workspace.

Question 10

What tattoo styles do you specialize in?

Accepted Answer

I specialize in creating personalized tattoos that reflect your unique personality and style. My expertise covers various tattoo styles including Japanese traditional art, custom tattoo designs, and all-round tattoo styles. Each tattoo is crafted specifically for the individual client, ensuring a unique piece of art that matches your vision and preferences.
