If you’re looking for a truly unique, custom tattoo in Berlin, I can’t recommend Lea Plinsky at Nuclearabbit Tattoo & Piercing in Friedrichshain enough!
Lea is a true artist, not simply someone who tattoos a design. She takes your ideas and transforms them into completely unique compositions, carefully created for your body and your vision.
Her Trash Polka and Abstract style is incredibly distinctive, with a beautiful use of contrast, shapes and negative space. The result feels like a genuine art piece created for the skin rather than simply an image.
The whole process is personal, creative and professional. If you want a tattoo that feels truly individual and artistic, Lea and Nuclearabbit are definitely worth visiting ❤️

Whether you’re looking for a unique custom tattoo or a professionally done piercing, the team takes the time to understand what you want and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the entire experience.

If you’re looking for a tattoo or piercing in Berlin, especially in Friedrichshain, I highly recommend Nuclearabbit. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

I’ve had several piercings done by Mariano at Nuclearabbit Tattoo & Piercing in Friedrichshain, and every experience has been fantastic.
What immediately stood out to me was how much time Mariano takes to understand what you actually want and, most importantly, to check whether the piercing is suitable for your anatomy. He never rushes the process and is always honest about placement, healing and possible complications.
His knowledge and attention to detail are exceptional. Whether it’s choosing the right placement, finding the right jewelry or explaining the healing and aftercare process, I always felt completely informed and in safe hands.
The studio itself is clean, welcoming and relaxed, and the whole experience feels very personal. Mariano is genuinely passionate about piercing and takes the time to answer every question, no matter how small.
If you’re looking for a professional piercing studio in Berlin, especially in Friedrichshain, I can highly recommend Nuclearabbit. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my piercings.
I’m already looking forward to my next one!

I came to Nuclearabbit in Friedrichshain for a custom tattoo with Lea Plinsky, and the whole experience was amazing.
I had an idea and a few references, but no finished design. Lea took the time to understand what I wanted and transformed my ideas into a completely unique composition that feels truly personal.

Lea is a real artist. Her approach to Trash Polka and Abstract is incredibly distinctive, and the way she works with shapes, contrast and negative space makes the tattoo feel like an actual art piece created for the body, rather than simply an image placed on the skin.
The whole process was relaxed, personal and professional, and I loved how much thought went into the composition and placement.
If you’re looking for a truly original custom tattoo in Berlin, I can’t recommend Lea and Nuclearabbit enough. I absolutely love my tattoo 🤩

I had an incredible experience getting my tattoo from Lea Plinsky, co-founder of Nuclearabbit Tattoo & Piercing in Friedrichshain, Berlin.
I came to Lea with an idea and a few references, but I wanted something truly personal rather than simply choosing an existing design. From our first conversation, it was clear that she approached the project as an artist, not just as someone executing a tattoo.
She took my ideas and transformed them into a completely unique composition designed specifically for me and for the way it would sit on my body. The way she works with shapes, movement, contrast and negative space is amazing. The final result feels like a real art piece on my skin rather than simply a tattoo.
Lea’s Trash Polka and Abstract style is incredibly distinctive, and I love how every element of the composition feels intentional. You can really see the creativity and thought that goes into every custom piece.
The whole experience at Nuclearabbit was just as special. The studio has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, and Lea took the time to discuss the concept, composition and placement with me without ever making me feel rushed.

If you’re looking for a truly unique custom tattoo in Berlin and want to work with an artist who will create something specifically for you, I couldn’t recommend Lea and Nuclearabbit enough.
I absolutely love my tattoo. It genuinely feels like a piece of art created just for me, and I already know this won’t be my last piece from Lea!

i got my anti-eyebrows pierced here (four symmetrical cheek dermals) a little over a month ago and i just loovvvvv mariano. he was very professional and cool and just as neurotic as me about the placement of the piercings. i found out about them because the shop was along my daily commute and i walked in for help one day on one of my existing piercings and mariano was more than happy to help me change my nose stud without any appointment. he was also very accommodating with my budget for the bigger piercing project i got done and it truly felt like i was getting pierced by a friend who was just as excited about this project as i was. nuclear rabbit is a pillar of community to me in friedrichshain and i would recommend anyone looking for piercing services in berlin to go and see mariano!!! pictured is the placement and dermals after they were pierced! it is also worth mentioning that the places i wanted pierced were particularly stubborn and bony with them just sitting on top of my cheekbone, and mariano was really good at explaining the entire process and possible complications to me even though i speak close to no german. i ❤️ nuclearabbit i ❤️ mariano

I was here today, having my nipple bar swapped, and custom coloured anodized balls put on, and can only recommend the friendly and professional service.
Simple, pain-free, knowledgeable service ~ I'm extremely happy with my 'new' piercing and getting to meet the piercer :D
Thanks so much,
Would 100% recommend :) *****

Definitely the best place in Berlin to get pierced or tattooed.
The staff is SO friendly and warm, it really was an amazing experience. They don't rush anything, you can ask as many questions as you want, they take the time to listen and chat with you. They make sure the piercing you want is the best option for you and they take really good care of you during the whole process and even afterwards by encouraging you to stay in touch for any questions. They really make you feel super relax and at ease. I have many piercings and this is definitely the best experience I've ever had. The studio is super clean and cozy and the staff is simply the best.
I am so grateful, thank you so so much again !

Gentle and attentive :)

I’ve got all my piercings here and Mariano is the only person I’ll trust for doing it. The studio is really cute and beautifully decorated by Lea which makes really sick trash polka tattoo! Really kind and friendly people. I really recommend to pay a visit if you are around Friedrichshain
