Tattoo Chair Rental in Bakırköy

Short answer: Artists who want to rent a tattoo chair in Bakırköy can go to the TattooVerseCo Chair rental section, select Bakırköy as the location and browse hourly, daily or weekly chair listings. Studio owners, in turn, can turn their empty chairs into listings and reach guest artists.

This article isn't for people who want to get tattooed; it's for professionals in the industry: traveling artists, those who want to work as guest artists, artists who haven't opened their own studio yet, and studio owners with an empty chair.

Why do artists choose Bakırköy?

  • Access: The Marmaray stops at Bakırköy (Zeytinlik), Ataköy and Florya, along with the Özgürlük Meydanı station on the M3 Bakırköy Sahil–Kayaşehir metro line, connect the district to the rest of Istanbul. Metrobus and bus lines run through it too. For an artist coming from out of town, planning daily travel gets easier.
  • A wide client base: The district has a population of nearly 220,000. On top of that, Bakırköy is easy to reach from neighboring districts like Bahçelievler, Güngören, Zeytinburnu and Küçükçekmece, which can help a guest artist reach a wider audience.
  • Shopping and the seafront: Malls such as Galleria, Carousel, Marmara Forum and Capacity, along with the seafront, draw lots of visitors to the district every day. Depending on the studio's location, that foot traffic can give you an edge in visibility.
  • Food and breaks: The many cafés and places to eat downtown and along the coast are practical for an artist on long session days.
