black & grey tattoo at 71studio Barcelona

What is a black & grey-style tattoo?

Black & Grey is a style worked exclusively with black ink, diluted to build a greyscale range and soft shading. Its visual signature is the contrast between solid blacks, smooth gradients, volume and detail; white highlights are sometimes added to enhance light points.

Common in portraits, realism, chicano pieces, religious imagery, skulls and high-contrast compositions.

When to choose this style?

For clients looking for a colour-free tattoo with clear readability, refined shading and a sober, timeless look.

Frequently asked questions about black & grey tattoos

How much does a black & grey tattoo cost in Barcelona?

The price depends on size, complexity and body area. A small piece starts from our studio minimum. Medium and large pieces are quoted by session hour, with a closed quote after consultation.

How long does a session last?

Between 1 and 6 hours depending on the piece. A mini tattoo: 30-90 minutes. A medium piece: 2-4 hours. Large pieces (sleeves, full back): several sessions.

How should I prepare for my session?

Arrive well rested, hydrated, with clothing suitable for accessing the tattoo area comfortably. Eat something beforehand (not on an empty stomach). Avoid alcohol the 24h prior.

Is it a good idea for a first tattoo?

It depends. If it's your first tattoo, we talk with you before the session to resolve any doubts: pain, aftercare, expectations. No pressure.
