FAQ

some of the most frequentLY ASKED questions

  • Hello! Malva is a Slovak tattoo artist currently living and creating in Copenhagen. She has a master’s degree in Marketing and she used to work as a graphic designer and illustrator. Then in 2020 right before the pandemic she learned the magic of tattooing. And she loves it!

  • Please use my booking form. You’ll find all the important information in there.

  • Sleep well, eat something before the session and stay hydrated. Having a meal or natural sugars will help your body deal with blood sugar dropping during the tattooing and can prevent nausea and fainting. For longer sessions is recommended to bring some snacks (nutrition bar, fruit, etc.).

    Don't drink alcohol before or right after a tattoo.

    Wear something comfortable or bring some comfy clothes. White clothes are not tattoo friendly.

  • Remember that you can't go to a sauna/spa/swim/take a bath with a new tattoo at least for 3-4 weeks.

  • My price estimate depends on a design/creative project, size and placement.

    ORIGINAL FLASH DESIGNS

    All flash designs are originals and would not be tattooed twice (the only exception is for matching tattoos). My starting price is 2000 Dkk.

    CUSTOM TATTOO

    My starting price is 2000 Dkk and the estimate also depends on a complexity of a design. Don't hesitate to ask for an estimate for your custom project.

    FULL DAY SESSION

    Price for a full day session or multiple days depends on our creative project.

    Feel free to contact me for more details if you are interested in a specific project.

  • I tattoo only my designs or custom designs in my style.

    All flashes are originals and will be tattooed only once. Only exception is for matching tattoos. I believe that a tattoo should be always an original and embrace your personality.

    My booking is also open to your custom design ideas. If your idea matches my style, I’ll be happy to draw something for you.

  • Please use my contact form or email me to malva.tatt@gmail.com.

  • Yes! I'm using vegan inks (REACH approved) and products (tattoo butter, soap, etc). I'm also trying to be as sustainable as it gets, even if it's hard in this type of business because of all hygiene rules, which are super important to me.

    You deserve the best care!

  • YES! It was the first thing I did before I moved here. You can't work legally as a tattoo artist in Denmark without this certificate and you have to absolve “Hygiejnekursus for tatovører”- Hygiene course for tattoo artists organised by Danish Health Authorities.

  • It’s totally up to you. But it is always very appreciated.

    Do you wanna know a secret? All tattoo artists like to be spoiled with treats or tips.

  • I can always help you to find the best placement and size for a tattoo design you like. Even if you like multiple designs, we can try to fit all of them.

  • No. The healing in this case is unpredictable.

  • You can find some available slots for Saturdays in my booking calendar.
