Mr and Mrs Suits Benidorm Watch out for them

Mr and Mrs Suits Benidorm

Phil & Jackie Stanley known as Mr and Mrs Suits are no strangers to Benidorm regulars and locals. although for some their flamboyant dress sense may appear strange.  Their style of dress and choice of bright colours have certainly caught the eye, not just in Benidorm but throughout the UK as well since their appearance on Bargain Brits in the Sun.  Always dressed immaculate and in matching colours, they are both big supporters of the Benidorm Cabaret circuit and well known to just about all of the entertainers.  They have been members of Benidorm Seriously since day one and regular attendees at group meetings.  So expect to run into them out and about around Benidorm.  You will have no problem spotting them and both are always happy to pose for a quick snapshot.

They love to hear from those who enjoy their dress sense, you may be able to contact then here or you may be able to catch them in our Social Club

Getting a tattoo

Getting a Tattoo in Benidorm - Your Ultimate Guide

🐙 Getting a Tattoo in Benidorm – Your Ultimate Guide

Thinking of getting a tattoo while visiting Benidorm? It’s one of the most frequently asked questions. Here’s everything you need to know – from finding the best studios to aftercare tips – to make sure your holiday tattoo is a safe, meaningful, and beautiful experience.

Plan Your Tattoo Carefully

💡 Top Tip: Book your tattoo for the end of your holiday. Tattoos take 4 to 6 weeks to heal. Getting it done towards the end of your trip means you can still enjoy the beach and swimming earlier without risking infection or fading.

🏆 Choosing a Safe & Professional Tattoo Studio in Benidorm

Don’t just walk into the first shop you see when your feet are tired from walking around the market! Here’s how to choose the right place:

Do Your Research

  • Check reviews online or ask locals for recommendations.

  • Visit the studio in person and talk to the tattoo artist about your ideas.

  • Look at their portfolio to see previous work and style.

🧼 Check for Proper Hygiene

  • New needles only, opened in front of you.

  • Artists must wear single-use latex or nitrile gloves.

  • Tools and surfaces should be disinfected between clients.

🪪 Ask to See Their Licence

All tattoo parlours in Spain must be authorised by the local City Council to operate legally. Don’t hesitate to ask.

🔥 Top Recommended Tattoo Studios in Benidorm

🎨 Choose the Right Tattoo Design

Your tattoo is forever. Take your time to choose something meaningful.

Double-check everything:

  • Spelling and grammar – Mistakes last forever.

  • Foreign language designs – Make sure they mean what you think!

  • Cultural symbols – Respect meanings, placement, and orientation.

💶 Tattoo Prices – Quality Over Cost

While it’s tempting to hunt for bargains, remember: cheaper isn’t always better.

💡 Top Tip: Bring your design idea to multiple studios and get quotes. Choose the artist you feel most confident and comfortable with. Paying more often means better hygiene, quality ink, and superior results.

🚫 Never Get Tattooed While Drunk or High

Any reputable tattooist will refuse service if you’re under the influence. Here’s why:

  • Alcohol thins your blood = more bleeding = ruined ink.

  • It makes the process more painful.

  • You’re more likely to make poor decisions about the design or placement.

🥗 Prepare Properly for Your Appointment

✅ Eat a good meal before your session.
Shower beforehand – hygiene matters!
✅ Bring headphones or a playlist to stay calm and distracted.

🩹 Tattoo Aftercare Is Everything

Follow your tattoo artist’s aftercare instructions strictly:

  • Wash gently and apply antibacterial cream.

  • Don’t scratch it, even if it itches.

  • Keep clingfilm or wrap on for as long as advised.

  • Touch only with clean hands.

  • Avoid swimming, chlorine, and saltwater.

  • Stay out of direct sunlight while healing. After it’s healed, use a high SPF to protect it.

FAQs – Getting a Tattoo in Benidorm

What age can you get a tattoo in Benidorm?
You must be over 18.

Can you get a tattoo if you have sunburn?
No. Your skin is already damaged and healing, so getting a tattoo over sunburn can cause infection and affect the tattoo quality.

Can you travel after getting a tattoo?
Yes, but remember it will be uncomfortable on the plane. Ensure you’re not allergic to the ink before flying.

How long after getting a tattoo can I go in the sun?
Wait at least 3-4 weeks until the tattoo has fully healed and always use sunscreen afterwards.

How long until I can swim with a new tattoo?
Do not swim until all scabs and dry skin have fallen off, usually 3-4 weeks. Getting your tattoo wet in the shower is fine, but don’t soak it.
