QuestionWould it be a good idea to design a multiple-layered tattoo?María Fernández González is a Tattoo Artist based in Hamburg, Germany. She works out of her tattoo studio, Alchemist’s Valley, which has locations in both Hamburg and Madrid. She specializes in fineline tattoos with soft shadings. While she mainly works with black ink, she sometimes includes touches of color in her work as well. Her original tattoo designs often reference her love of nature and are defined by graphic and clean elements. María creates unique tattoo compositions that leave an indelible mark on her clients. As an early adopter of the concept of modern tattooing, which features designs with fine lines and unique illustrations, María has become a highly sought-after tattoo artist and is considered a true visionary in the field of modern tattooing. She graduated with a Master's in Fine Arts from the School of Art in Hamburg, and with a Degree in Fine Arts from Complutense University of Madrid, Spain.It's generally not a good idea to layer different designs of tattoos in one go. If you're seeking something personal, avoid trendy, commercial designs that lacks personal significance. Also, cramming multiple elements into one tattoo, especially for first-timers, try to represent everything in a single tattoo such as family members and memorable trips which can result in a cluttered and unattractive design. While it may hold significant meaning initially, you might end up disliking the tattoo over time. So, it's better to focus on a few elements that work well together and remember that less is more.

QuestionDo I have to use baby powder or can I just use hairspray?Community AnswerIt would be best to use both of them at the same time. I tried this and it has a much better result than using only one of each.

QuestionWhat if I don't have rubbing alcohol? What can I use instead?Community AnswerIf you have an old perfume, you can use that instead since it is largely made of rubbing alcohol. Whatever you use, be sure to wash off the alcohol with warm water and soap, then moisturize well.

QuestionSo, can I use anything else than perfume?Community AnswerPerfume is mainly alcohol based, so you could use hand sanitizer, or plain alcohol.

QuestionCould I use nail polish as well? What do I use if I don’t t have baby powder?ZOE CORNELLCommunity AnswerUsing nail polish would have to depend on where you are putting your tattoo, the only bad place to use the nail polish is the face, your eyes will burn up even though you don't put it near the eyes. Also when removing, nail polish remover makes your skin dry, maybe removing it with something else would work. If you don't have baby powder, use cornstarch instead.

QuestionWhen I try to do the hairspray thing, it smudges the Sharpie. Advice?ZOE CORNELLCommunity AnswerIf it starts to smudge, then there is a cause. Try to hold it as far away from the tattoo as possible, but still get a good amount of hairspray on the tattoo. If it starts to run even though, dab it off very quickly and get a cotton swab/Q-tip and swipe away the excess with hot water.
