MINORS - TATTOO
In Croatia, there is currently no minimum age limit for tattooing.
Each salon determines it separately according to its own ethical code.
At Octopus tattoo studio, individuals must be 16 years old to get a tattoo, with the presence of a legal guardian. Siblings and other relatives cannot give permission for tattooing unless they have a written confirmation of legal guardianship over the minor. Legal guardian must be present during the consultation about the design and tattoo price. They do not need to be present during the actual tattooing if they prefer not to be.
To avoid any uncomfortable situations, please finalize design and size arrangements beforehand. If there are any disagreements during the consultation in the salon, we kindly ask you to resolve them among yourselves in a manner that does not create discomfort for those around you.

Keep in mind that it is much easier to get a tattoo than to remove it, so carefully consider your choice of design and placement.
We do not perform first tattoos on highly visible areas that cannot be covered by clothing (head, neck, hands).
Children under 12 years of age are NOT ALLOWED to enter the salon.
