TATTOO SHOP

We use a waterproof Second Skin protective film on fresh tattoos to help protect the area during the first days of healing. You can shower normally while wearing it.

If you are on holiday in Madeira, you can still enjoy your trip — just be a little careful with your fresh tattoo. We recommend avoiding prolonged swimming in the ocean or pool during the initial healing period. Short exposure is less of a concern if the film is fully sealed, but prolonged immersion is still not recommended.

For sun exposure, keep the tattoo covered with clothing or a light bandage and avoid direct sunlight on the fresh tattoo. The protective film itself does not provide UV protection.

Yes. We regularly work with travellers and may have short-notice appointments available. Send us your dates and tattoo idea and we’ll check the closest suitable slot.

The surface usually settles within around 1–2 weeks, while deeper healing continues for several weeks. Healing time varies depending on size, placement and your skin.

Send us your idea, approximate size, placement and preferred dates. We confirm the artist, price and availability, then your appointment is secured with a deposit.

A deposit is required to confirm your appointment and is deducted from the final tattoo price. Rescheduling and cancellation conditions are explained in our Booking Rules.
