almost believe it’s a photo! It is full of intricate details with high amounts of shading, layers, and generally takes the most amount of time to complete…






















Hello! I’m Noémi Kovács, a tattoo artist with 10 years of experience, working at Bern Tattoo Studio, conveniently located just 300 meters from the train station and a 2-minute walk from the bus stop in central Bern, Switzerland. I offer three daily time slots for discussing your tattoo ideas, with a complimentary 15-minute meeting. You can easily book your appointment online through the contact menu.
I’d like to share some insights into black and grey tattoos. This style focuses on creating lifelike images using only shades of black and grey, without incorporating color. By utilizing various tones of diluted black ink, I can achieve depth and realism, making the tattoo appear almost like a photograph.
The technique involves diluting black ink with distilled water to produce lighter shades, known as “wash,” allowing for subtle shading and smooth gradients. This method is essential for capturing intricate details and achieving a three-dimensional effect on the skin.
Black and grey tattoos are versatile and can depict a wide range of subjects, from portraits of loved ones to detailed representations of nature, animals, or symbolic imagery. The absence of color directs focus to the design’s details, highlighting the artist’s skill in rendering textures, contrasts, and expressions.
How Long Do Tattoos Last?
Tattoos require proper care to maintain their brilliance over time. Here are some tips to keep your tattoo looking fresh:
• Follow Aftercare Instructions: I’ll guide you through the healing process to ensure the best results.
• Use Sunscreen: Always apply SPF 50 when your tattoo is exposed to the sun to prevent fading.
• Moisturize Regularly: Keep your tattooed skin hydrated for a long-lasting, vivid look.
