A considered tattoo appointment is not simply the next available slot. First establish that the portfolio direction, body placement and scale are a good fit. This guide explains the enquiry and visit process for Trois Tattoo Studio’s appointment-only Kwun Tong studio.
Start on WhatsApp, rather than walking in
Trois Tattoo Studio works by appointment. The first message does not need to be a long brief or a finished drawing, but useful context makes the next step clearer: the subject or feeling you want, intended placement and side of the body, approximate size, references, preferred artist if any, budget range and several dates that work for you.
References are useful when they explain what you respond to — lines, black and grey contrast, colour, composition or atmosphere. They are not a request to copy someone else’s tattoo. If the concept is still forming, explain the elements you want to keep and the results you do not want.

Choose an artist from the work, not only a name
The same subject can look very different when it is adapted for a different body placement or creative direction. Browse the portfolios first, then compare your idea with the artist whose existing work feels closest. The three current directions are:
HIM · Black & grey realism
Black and grey, figurative imagery, realism and larger compositions, with attention to contrast, visual weight and body flow.
View HIM’s portfolio ↗LC · Anime & colour
Colour, anime and character-led work, organised through silhouette, movement and colour relationships.
View LC’s portfolio ↗Moon · Fine line
Fine lines, florals and lighter compositions, with attention to rhythm, negative space and proportion on the body.
View Moon’s portfolio ↗It is fine to enquire before choosing. Send the visual direction, placement and size, and the studio can compare it with the current portfolios. Whether a request can be taken on still depends on the full brief and availability.
Four details to confirm before the appointment
A WhatsApp message starts the conversation; it does not itself confirm a booking. Before paying or arranging travel, make sure the conversation records:
- Direction and artist: confirm the principal style, subject, placement and approximate size, as well as the artist who will handle the enquiry.
- Quote or estimate: size, detail, placement, black and grey or colour, expected session time and whether multiple sittings are involved can all affect the arrangement. Major changes may require a new assessment.
- Deposit and date: follow the deposit arrangement and date confirmed in WhatsApp. Read the studio policy before asking to reschedule or cancel.
- Day-of instructions: confirm the appointment time and any preparation needed. Do not travel to the studio and wait without a confirmed appointment.

Before leaving, use Google Maps for the live route and allow reasonable time to arrive.
On the day, eat normally, hydrate, wear clothing that gives practical access to the tattoo area and avoid alcohol. Share any skin, health or medication matter that may affect the service or healing before the appointment.
