01 — The Studio

Ink with a history on the island.

John Lymperopoulos took over the studio in 2015 — the very first tattoo shop ever opened on Mykonos. A decade on, every piece is still drawn by hand, in private work areas, with fully sterile single-use needles and full state licensing.

We open seasonally, April through the end of October, when the island is awake. The studio shares its space with our sister barbershop next door — same address, same family of craft.

05 — The Process

How a piece is made.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    Send the idea — reference, placement, size. We reply with a quote.

  2. 02

    Design

    We sketch a custom piece and refine together until it feels right.

  3. 03

    Ink

    Single session or staged — private room, your pace, sterile every time.

  4. 04

    Aftercare

    You leave with a clear plan to heal the piece for the long run.

06 — Aftercare

Looking after fresh ink.

01

The first 24 hours

Keep the wrap on for exactly the time we tell you. Wash gently with lukewarm water and fragrance-free soap. Pat dry — never rub.

02

Days 2 – 14

Apply a thin layer of healing balm 2–3 times a day. Do not pick or scratch. Wear loose, clean clothing over the area.

03

Sun, sea, sauna

No direct sun, no pools, no sea, no sauna for at least two weeks. After healing, sunscreen keeps the ink sharp for years.

04

When to call us

Heat, swelling that gets worse after day three, or anything that feels off — message us. We'd rather you ask.

08 — FAQ

Questions, answered.

  • Every piece is custom, so pricing depends on size, placement and detail. Send your idea over WhatsApp and we'll come back with a quote.

  • Appointment first. We'll fit walk-ins around the book when the day allows — always message ahead.

  • Fully licensed by the Greek state. Single-use sterile needles, private work areas, hospital-grade practice — every session.

  • Seasonally, April through the end of October. Outside that window we answer messages but the chair is closed.

  • Yes — cover-ups are one of our core services. Send a clear photo of the existing piece and your idea, and we'll design around it.
