Atelier Friendly Bones

This is my workplace! I tattoo in my beautiful studio in Duisburg. I usually only have one client a day, so I have plenty of time for you!

Directions

  • With the public transport

    From Duisburg Central Station, take the U-Bahn line 79 toward Düsseldorf and get off at the "Musfeldstraße" stop. From there, turn right onto Musfeldstraße. The number 83 subway line is just a few meters away!

  • By car

    The studio is located very close to the A40 and A59 motorways. Coming from the A59, take exit 11 Duisburg Mitte; from the A40, take exit 12 Häfen/Zentrum. The address is Musfeldstr. 83, 47053 Duisburg.

  • Park

    The studio is located in a residential area with street parking. Musfeldplatz is also nearby, and there's a small parking lot there (best to enter it into your navigation system). Keep an eye out, though, as many parking spaces are for residents only!

If you can't find a parking space nearby, you can park in the yard to the right of the studio if there's space. Just let me know, and I'll help you.

FAQ

How does a tattoo appointment work with you?

After you've arrived well-rested, we'll discuss any remaining questions regarding the design and the area of ​​the body to be tattooed. You'll then fill out a consent form allowing me to ink your desired motif into your skin. Allergies and other medical information will also be noted on this form. I'll create a stencil of the motif, which will then be transferred to your skin, similar to a temporary tattoo. Once you're happy with the position, you'll make yourself comfortable on the couch, and I'll begin tattooing. Short breaks for toilet breaks and water breaks will be taken as needed.

Can I bring someone with me to the appointment?

You're welcome to bring ONE quiet person along for moral support 🙂 Unfortunately, there's no room for more people. Besides, tattooing requires a lot of concentration, and too much hustle and bustle makes it more difficult for me to work and more unpleasant for you. But: The studio is about a 10-minute walk from the city center, so it's a great place to stroll around or grab a coffee. So, drivers and hand-holders can stretch their legs in between 😉

Do you tattoo clients who are younger than 18 years old?

No, not at all. Not even with parental consent or presence.

I have illness XY, can I still get a tattoo?

I have no medical training and cannot (and, more importantly, am not allowed to!) provide any information on this matter. Please discuss your tattoo request with your doctor.

Can you tattoo over scars?

This is usually doable. The scars should take 2-3 years to heal. It's best if I examine the affected area or you send me photos. Then we can discuss what's possible together.
