Daria Malińska · Halo Daria Tattoo, Kraków
I have over 10 years of tattooing experience. I graduated in Interior Architecture from the Academy of Fine Arts with distinction. Composition, proportion and form are close to my heart, so I pay a lot of attention to how a tattoo sits on the body and how it works as a whole.
I don't work from flash. Every design is drawn from scratch, for a specific person and a specific spot. I love when a tattoo has something personal in it - a story, an idea, or simply what you like.
You don't need a finished vision. Come with a clear idea, a few references or just a general direction - I'll help turn it into a design and work out the details.
During the session I care about a good atmosphere and your comfort. If you need a break, we take a break. If you have questions about the design or the process, there's always time to talk them through. What matters most to me is that you feel comfortable and truly love the result.
Got an idea for a tattoo? Write to me - even if it's only the beginning of an idea.
Fill in the form: your idea, placement, size and reference photos.
I reply with a quote and a proposed date. A deposit secures your booking.
I prepare the design for you. We discuss any changes before the session.
We tattoo. You get aftercare instructions and I stay in touch through the whole healing.

Booking: a deposit of usually 300 PLN (approx. 30% for larger projects), deducted from the final price. You can reschedule up to 14 days before your appointment and the deposit moves to the new date.

Get a good night's sleep, eat a proper meal and drink water. Skip alcohol for 24 hours before. Wear comfortable clothes that give easy access to the area being tattooed.
Pain depends mostly on placement, not style. Realism does need longer sessions, so we plan breaks well.
Yes. Send a photo of your current tattoo in daylight and I'll tell you what can be done.
The surface heals in about 2-3 weeks, fully in about 1-2 months. You get aftercare instructions after the session - read them here.

Yes. If you let me know at least 14 days before your appointment, we set a new date and your deposit moves to it in full. If you reschedule later than that, cancel, or don't show up, the deposit is forfeited. The deposit secures the date and covers the time spent preparing your design; when the tattoo is done, it is deducted from the final price.
I answer messages after my sessions, so it can take a few days - thank you for your patience! I don't take phone calls, because while I work, all my attention belongs to the person in the chair. The fastest way to get a quote is the form below.
Yes! Many clients travel for their tattoo. Send your idea and travel dates in the form and I'll do my best to fit you in. For larger pieces, plan a full day and allow a few days of healing before swimming or sunbathing.
The more details, the faster you get a quote. Contact via the form, e-mail or Instagram only - during sessions I focus 100% on my client, so I don't take phone calls.
