Before your appointment...
Moisturizing the area to get tattooed and drinking plenty of water in the days or weeks leading up to your appointment can aide in a smooth tattoo experience as dryer skin does not accept ink as well as hydrated skin. Please come to your appointment well rested, well fed, and sober with your ID and payment method.
Feel free to bring a personal device for audio or video if you would like it as a distraction, but please keep navigating your device to a minimum whilst being tattooed.
Snacks and drinks (non-alcoholic) are also encouraged.
Deposits and Pricing
A $100 non-refundable deposit is required for all appointments. 48 hour notice is required to retain your deposit if rescheduling is necessary, up to three reschedules before a new deposit is required. The deposit goes towards the final cost of your tattoo.
Consultations are free. Although they may not be needed for smaller scale tattoos, coverups and larger projects typically require a consultation in person, which aides in my design process.
I have a $100 minimum, and go by an hourly rate of $160 for larger scale projects.
Aftercare
Every tattoo is unique, and so is its aftercare. At the time of your tattoo I will provide you with verbal instructions for general tattoo aftercare as well as a physical copy of aftercare instructions. We will also go over any specific instructions in regards to the type of tattoo, placement, and any questions that you may have.
