A traditional tattoo, also known as old school tattoo design, is one of the most iconic tattoo styles.

It is defined by:

• Bold, solid outlines

• Strong, simple designs

• Limited but powerful color palettes

• High contrast for long-lasting results

Traditional tattoos are made to age well over time, which is why they are still one of the most popular styles in every tattoo studio in Berlin.

Berlin is known for its creative scene, and the city offers many tattoo studios. Choosing a traditional tattoo artist in Berlin means choosing a style that is:

• Timeless and classic

• Bold and easy to read

• Durable over the years

• Perfect for both small and large tattoos

At Abra Tattoo Berlin, each tattoo is designed to fit your body perfectly while staying true to the traditional tattoo aesthetic.

Some of the most popular old school tattoo designs include:

• Panthers

• Eagles

• Daggers

• Roses

• Skulls

• Snakes

• Pin-ups

• Spiderwebs

These designs can be customized to create a unique tattoo design that fits your personality and placement.

When booking a tattoo in Berlin, you usually have two options:

Flash Tattoos

• Pre-designed artwork

• Faster process

• Still customized slightly for each client

Custom Tattoos

• Designed specifically for you

• Adapted to your body and placement

• Perfect if you want the best tattoo design tailored to you

At Abra Tattoo Berlin, both options are available, and every tattoo gets personal attention.

The placement and size of your tattoo are just as important as the design.

During your appointment:

• The design will be placed directly on your body

• Different sizes will be tested

• We adjust everything until it fits perfectly

This ensures your traditional tattoo looks natural and balanced.

Pain depends on the placement and your personal tolerance.

More sensitive areas:

• Ribs

• Knee ditch

• Hands

• Neck

Less sensitive areas:

• Arms

• Thighs

• Calves

No matter the placement, I make sure you feel comfortable throughout your tattoo session at my tattoo studio in Berlin.

To get the best result:

• Sleep well the night before

• Eat before your appointment

• Stay hydrated

• Avoid alcohol

• Wear comfortable clothing

Good preparation helps your body handle the tattoo process better and improves healing.

Proper aftercare is essential to keep your tattoo bold and clean.

• Clean your tattoo gently

• Use aftercare cream regularly

• Avoid sun exposure

• Do not scratch or pick

• Keep the skin hydrated

Following proper aftercare ensures your traditional tattoo design heals perfectly and stays vibrant.

At Abra Tattoo Berlin, I focus on:

• Traditional tattoo style

• Clean, bold linework

• Custom and flash tattoo designs

• High attention to detail

• Tattoos that age well

Each tattoo is created with care, experience, and respect for the craft.
