In 2018, we opened our studio with the commitment that the people who collaborated with us would feel at home, providing the space and tools necessary for them to give free rein to their creativity.

Our work
We are Fèlix, Esther and Aleix and we are responsible for this small and familiar space dedicated mainly to tattooing. We would like to take advantage of this section to introduce ourselves and for you to get to know us a little better.
For some time we have been living in Igualada in a flat that we have made to our liking together with two cats, Gus and Griz. Sometimes the fact that we live 63 km from where we work makes it a little difficult for us to "exist" and have family conciliation, but not living in Barcelona has many advantages.
Felix was born on All Saints' Day 2022 and since then he has changed our lives, filling them with smiles, love and hope.
It's not all flowers and violets (like we say in catalan)... The stress level has also increased and the time we can devote to other things than this "cute little monster" has decreased.
Esther doesn't need to be introduced much, as she is the visible image of Why Not, she puts the talent and the creativity that you all see.
Now that I know her as a mother I have no words to describe her, she is amazing.
Fineness, delicacy and kindness that makes your ideas come true on your skin. But you know... sometimes she's a bit clueless and that's where I, Aleix, come in: photography, logistics, accounting and communication.
From the first project we did together (some invitations for a wedding there in 2015) we saw that we made a great team. And in 2018 we culminated it with the opening of our Tattoo studio.
Over the years we've done things well and things not so well, but I'm proud that we've always done it our way, met so many people, collaborated with amazing artists, and all together it has led us to continue growing as people and to continue to be excited by each of the tattoos that come out of the studio.
We are very lucky to be able to have great artists who collaborate with us and help us in this growth.
Our story doesn't end here, there are many pages left to fill in this story, and they are dark pages (sorry I couldn't help it...if the "dad" humor is my fault, now I have an excuse because I'm a dad now... ).

Can I come to the studio at any time to get tattooed?
At the studio we prefer to work by appointment to be able to better work on your idea, but if you want you can come and ask about our availability.

The individual attention of our artists may change.
Can I see the artists' previous work before I decide?
Yes, you can explore each artist's portfolio in the "Artists" section of our website. This will give you a full view of their styles and skills before you make a decision.
You can also see their work on Instagram, both in the studio and on each artist's personal account.

What is the minimum price of the studio?
The minimum price of the study is 80€.
This minimum price can include anything from a dot to a word or a small, very minimalistic design.
How much does a tattoo cost?
The price of a tattoo is assessed by the artist who performs it. Other points include the complexity of the design, the hours spent, both in the design and in the tattoo itself, the size, the area of the body and all the material necessary for the practice. If you want to check prices, don't hesitate to write to us or directly to the artist you want.
Do you do 2x1 or some kind of offer?
No, at Why Not Tattoo we don't follow the practice of 2x1 or offer other promotions. We firmly believe that tattooing is an art made by artists in an exclusive, personalized and individual way. We do not consider it to be an industrially mass-produced product.
For us, tattooing is a privilege, not a necessity. Each tattoo we create is a unique work, designed and executed with special attention to the preferences and personality of each client. In addition, it is important to remember that we are carrying out an intervention with a health risk, and this prevents the reduction of costs to guarantee safety and hygiene at all times.
Do you do white tattoos?
If you want to get a tattoo with only white ink, we recommend that you know the result beforehand once it has healed.
Sometimes on the internet we see photos of recently done white tattoos, where the color looks very vibrant, but it is not the reality. Once the wound has healed, the first layer of skin has regenerated, the white will turn into a flesh color similar to ours, only slightly different. In some cases it will stand out more than others but it won't stand out.
Will you post my tattoo on Instagram?
If we have your permission, we usually upload an image of the process or the result in the studio.
Each artist decides which works to post on their social networks, either in story, post, reel.. format.
Nothing happens if we don't upload your tattoo, don't take it the wrong way, every tattoo is unique, we simply often don't publish everything we create.
If you don't want your tattoo to be shown on our networks, don't hesitate to tell the artist or the Why Not team.
You took pictures of my tattoo, can you send them to me?
Yes, there is no problem, you can ask the artist who tattooed you and he will send them to you.
