Two friends, a couple or a family agree on a small symbol, pick a day and get it done together. A small piece makes it easy: you can decide in the morning and be tattooed in the afternoon.
What counts as matching
It doesn’t have to be identical. Common ways to do it:
- The same small design in the same place on both people.
- Two halves of one design: a pair of shapes, a drawing split in two, a word and its translation.
- A shared detail with each person’s own twist: a date, a set of coordinates, a Málaga landmark.
A design that works at 5 × 5 cm or smaller can stay walk-in. We work out with you the smallest size that carries it. A small tattoo packed with detail blurs as it ages, so a clean shape beats an intricate one.
Choosing the placement
Pick a place both of you are happy with. Some skin ages badly: we don’t tattoo hands, feet, elbows or knees, because the lines blur and fade fast there. Tell us your idea and we suggest a placement where it still looks like your design in five years. For more, see fine line tattoos: how they heal and age.
What it costs
Walk-in fine line prices, up to 5 × 5 cm:
| Pieces | Price |
|---|---|
| 1 | 50 € |
| 2 | 80 € |
| 3 | 120 € |
VAT (IVA) is included. Tell us when you message how many people are coming and how many tattoos, and we confirm the price. A small piece takes 15–20 minutes, so allow time for two. If the design is bigger or custom, we quote it for free from a photo or a sketch. A deposit to hold a date is 20 € at walk-in prices and from 50 € for a custom piece, and it comes off the final price.
Before you both sit down
- Be 18 or older, with a photo ID. Under 18 is possible with written consent from a parent or legal guardian: message us first.
- Decide sober. Skip alcohol the day before, and sleep and eat well.
- Agree the design in advance. Send us the idea on WhatsApp so the artist has time to draw it. You can also pick a frame from our work.
- Tell us about health. Anything that could affect healing, for each of you.
You each read and sign an informed consent form before the session, as the Andalusian health rules require.
After the tattoos
You both leave with the same written aftercare: keep it clean and lightly moisturised, and keep it out of the sea, pools and direct sun for a month. That includes the beach day you may have planned for the next morning. The tattoo on holiday guide suggests getting tattooed near the end of your trip. Aftercare in hot weather covers the practical side.
Questions people ask
Can we walk in together?
Yes, for small pieces, Tuesday to Sunday, 11:00–23:00. If it is a bigger or custom design, send it first so the artist can prepare. Walk-in tattoos in Málaga explains how it works.
Do we have to have the same design?
No. Matching can mean two halves, or the same symbol in different places. Send us your idea and we draw a version that fits each of you.
What if one of us is not sure?
Then wait, or have only one tattoo. It is much easier to add a second one later than to undo one.
Can a group of friends do it?
We have had groups. One of our reviewers describes leaving with five tattoos after a day with their best friend. Message us with the number of people so we can plan the time.
