Katherine Velazco

Most tattoos begin
with a conversation.

I'm Katherine Velazco, a tattoo artist based in Dublin, working between Europe and Paraguay.

Most of my designs begin the same way: with a conversation. A flower. A pet. A memory. An idea. My job is to turn it into something that feels natural to wear.

How to book.

Common questions

How is the price defined? +
Pricing depends on the size, placement, level of detail and overall complexity of the design. Send me your idea on WhatsApp and I will give you a quote before confirming your appointment.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule? +
The deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable if the client cancels. If you need to change your appointment and keep your deposit, please let me know at least 72 hours in advance.
Can I see the design before my appointment? +
Yes. I usually send designs a few days before the appointment so we have time to review any final adjustments together.
How do I prepare? +
Get a good night's sleep, eat before your appointment and stay hydrated. Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours beforehand and wear comfortable clothing. Please avoid fake tan, oils and heavy moisturisers on the area being tattooed.
Do you do guest spots outside Dublin? +
Yes. Alongside my work in Dublin, I regularly travel for guest spots across Europe and Paraguay. Join the 2027 waitlist and I will let you know as soon as I open dates.
Client love

What they say

Katherine transformed my vague idea of "something floral" into the most exquisite piece I've ever seen. She has a gift for listening between the lines.

— Sofia M.

The level of detail in her fine line work is extraordinary. My rose tattoo looks like it was drawn with a single hair. Three years later, still perfect.

— Jamie L.

I was nervous for my first tattoo, but Katherine made the experience completely serene. The studio, the music, the conversation — all of it.

— Adele R.

Caring for your tattoo

The second skin +
Keep the second skin on for a minimum of 2 hours and a maximum of 5 days.
What to avoid +
No exercise or gym for at least 5 days. No swimming and no saunas for 15 days. No direct sun exposure for 15 days. Avoid excess alcohol or drugs for 48 hours after your tattoo.
Cleaning +
Once the second skin is off, start cleaning your tattoo 2 to 3 times a day with a gentle soap. Any soap labelled pH neutral will do.
Moisturiser +
Start using a moisturiser from day 3. I recommend Cicaplast by La Roche-Posay.
For the next 30 days +
Keep up your routine of gentle soap and moisturiser for the next 30 days.
Long-term +
Use sunscreen for life, SPF 50 minimum.
