you don't need another tattoo course.
YOU want ✣GUIDANCE✣
If it was just about learning to tattoo, you would have started already.
Even if you've already started, you know what I'm talking about.
✣ Information overload. ✣
A million YouTube videos. Instagram artists making it look easy while you're sitting there wondering if you're even doing it right.
Here's the thing: it's not that you lack information. You don't need to pay for another course to find out how to tattoo. All of that is out there for free. What you actually need is someone to look at what you're doing and tell you — without frills, without worrying about offending you — exactly what you need to fix.
That's where I come in.
Hi, I'm Fia ✣
I've been tattooing for nearly 10 years and training artists one-on-one for about 3 years.
I'm not gonna do the usual "I've trained thousands of people" thing.
Because I haven't. I work with a small number of students at a time. Because I actually value the trust my students put in me.
Think of me like a personal trainer. But for tattooing. I watch your form, correct your mistakes, push you to the next level, and hold you accountable.
And if you're done with me? You can stop anytime. No strings, no hard feelings. I'm passionate about making this about you, not my ego.

"Fia has been an excellent mentor on my tattoo journey. She has not only taught me how to be a tattoo artist but also shown me how to navigate social media as a tattoo artist and artist."
@saboru_ink
"Best coach there is for learning how to tattoo, I’m amazed at how well she can help you and how much passion she brings to the table. She organizes everything so well and detailed, would recommend her to anyone who wants to learn tattooing and needs guidance with it :)"
@alixx.tattooist
"Fia took me from being a client to becoming a student, and I'm so grateful for everything she taught me. She gave me not only tattooing skills and helped me found a place to tattoo full time, but also the confidence, passion, and direction I need to grow as an artist"
This is not an apprenticeship.
I call my coachees students because I'm teaching them. But this is completely remote, one-on-one training—not an in-shop apprenticeship.
I have strong feelings about apprenticeships and what's broken in the system. If you want the full sauce, book a call and ask me. I'll tell you everything.
Q ✣ A
Q: I'm a complete beginner. Can I still join?
A: Yes. Some of my students had never held a tattoo machine before we started. We go at your pace, and I meet you exactly where you are.
✣
Q: How is this different from watching YouTube or taking an online course?
A: YouTube can give you all the information you need. And for some people, that's enough—they figure it out on their own and they're fine. But for a lot of artists, information isn't the problem. The problem is not knowing what to do with it, or not being able to see what you're doing wrong. That's where I come in. I give you guidance, not just information.
✣
Q: What if I don't have a style yet?
A: That's one of the things we can work on. We'll look at your strengths, your interests, and your technique, and build a style that actually fits you. You're not limited to what's out there already, you can invent your own individual style.
✣
Q: What if I sign up and it's not for me?
A: You pay month-to-month, so you can stop whenever you want. No contracts, no hard feelings. I'm here to help and support. If you don't think I can contribute to your growth, you are free to cancel any time. (Please note that all payments are non-refundable. To cancel, you must notify me before the start of your next billing month.)
✣
Q: Do you teach hygiene? And how?
A: Absolutely. Hygiene is the one thing I'm strict about. If you think you've got it down, I'll still check. If I see a problem, I'll tell you. Every time. I will request you to film yourself during the process and I can audit your hygiene during live 1 on 1 calls.
✣
Q: How is this different from an apprenticeship?
A: An apprenticeship is in-person, in a shop. This is remote, one-on-one, done through Google Meet video calls.
✣
Q: What happens on the free call?
A: Whatever you want. Ask me anything. Show me your work. Tell me where you're stuck. There's no pitch and no pressure—just a conversation to see if we're a good fit.
✣
Q: Can I see examples of your students' work?
A: Yes. Check our Instagram @fiatattoos.collective to find all of our pages and work.
✣
Q: What does CHF 200/month include?
A: Everything. Weekly calls, work reviews, message support, the Collective membership, hygiene audits. No tiers, no hidden costs. Pay month-to-month, stop anytime.
