GUEST ARE WELCOME.

Join our collaborative tattoo studio in Grenoble

Make yourself comfortable. Here is how it works.

Studio Pixel is a tattoo collective where everyone can work in a friendly and inclusive atmosphere. The team is made of tattoo artists with different styles.

We care about honest, respectful exchanges so we can match clients' expectations as well as possible. Style-wise, there is a bit of everything: flashy pop culture, blackwork, ornamental pieces and floral semi-realism.

We are not always all at the shop at the same time, but we like meeting for a drink at the end of the day. You are welcome to join :)

Communication

I will prepare a carousel post to announce your guest spot on the shop account, with pictures of your tattoos and flash sheets, plus several stories. You can send me more material along the way if you want me to keep posting about it.

Most of the time, I publish between 2 months and 3 weeks before the guest dates.

What we ideally need

  • 5 flash sheets in 4:5 format, Instagram recommends 1080 x 1350 px
  • 5 tattoo photos, ideally avoid only black and white pictures
  • Your hygiene training certificate, to validate the guest spot and start communication
  • A short text presenting you and/or your work, or a few keywords. Optional, but useful

The best is to have these elements 1 to 2 months ahead so we can prepare communication, but you can send more whenever you want.

Tips for visibility

  • Create a sponsored Instagram post targeting Grenoble, useful if you do not have many local clients yet.
  • Prepare a short reusable text at the end of your posts to announce your upcoming dates.
  • Add this to your bio: "Grenoble - [Date]".
  • If you post flash sheets in stories, tag @studiopixel.tattoo and/or @arthak so we can repost you.
  • Organize a giveaway, for example tattoo vouchers of 50, 150 euros or more. It works well, and we will gladly share it.

The studio

The studio has 3 technical tattoo rooms, a plant-filled reception area with a sofa, unlimited coffee and tea, and a room to prepare stencils or draw quietly.

Commission and supplies

We take a 30% commission and provide the usual consumables, except inks and cartridges. Of course, you can bring your own equipment if you have preferred products.

Equipment available at the studio: thermal copier, her name is Gertrude, Wi-Fi printer, coffee and tea for you and your clients, lamps, massage table, armrest and chairs.

Accommodation and travel to Grenoble are at your own expense. You manage your clients, deposits and payments, then pay the commission at the end of your guest spot.

Cleaning

We usually clean around 6 pm before leaving. The idea is simple: mop your technical area before you go, and if you finish after 6 pm, leave the space as you would like to find it the next morning.

Tattoo consent form

We recommend using our digital tattoo consent form during the appointment, with the QR code at the reception desk. You can also share it beforehand if you prefer: https://lestudiopixel.com/jourj

Opening hours and access

The studio is not right in the city center, but it is easy to reach by tram or bus, about 15 minutes from the center. Address: 126 rue de Stalingrad, intercom 11, 1st floor on the left, 38100 Grenoble. Feel free to share it with your clients when booking appointments.

Important: we are a private shop. No walk-ins without an appointment.

Opening hours: 10 am to 6 pm, Monday to Saturday. If your tattoo takes longer, no problem, it happens to us too. We will just have a little less time for a drink after. You can start earlier or finish later, the best is to talk about it beforehand so we can organize it.

Duration

You can come for 3 to 4 days or for a full week, as you prefer. Unfortunately, accompanying people are not allowed inside the studio, but there is a reception area where they can wait if needed.

Pricing

We do not do tattoos under 80 euros. In Grenoble, and generally in France, prices are around 100 to 120 euros per hour. Try not to undervalue your prices too much, even if you are still early in your tattoo career.

Connection

We have a dedicated guest conversation that is updated regularly. We will add you to it.

Kindness

We ask guest artists to be respectful and kind with other guests, clients and the team. We do our best to make you feel comfortable. Thank you for doing the same so everyone can have a good time here :)

Ready to come?

Before coming, tell us what time you would like to arrive, either the day before or a few days before, so we can welcome you properly. We will add you to the guest conversation so we can stay in sync.
