Frequently asked Questions

How do I book with you? Go to the booking section and answer the questions on the form. Or send me an email.

What does “by appointment” mean? It means you have to book an appointment to come into the shop. There are no walk ins.

What is a private studio? A private studio is a one on one space with you and your artist. Unlike a big tattoo shop where there are several artists and stations operating at once.

Do you use a machine or do you hand poke? I use a tattoo machine.

How do I care for my tattoo? I will send you an after care email detailing how to care for your tattoo during the healing process. We will also chat about aftercare before your tattoo and you can ask me any questions that come to mind.

Will you tattoo this picture I found on printrest? No, I don’t tattoo other people’s art, but we can make a personalized design inspired by that piece.

Can I send you reference pictures? Is that rude? Every artist is different but I love reference pictures. I ask that you try to narrow it down to 5 and tell me what you specifically like about it.

Can I make an AI drawing for you to tattoo? No shame to those who use it but no AI scares me please don’t.

I am under 18, will you tattoo me with my parents consent? I’m sorry I can not! I am not insured to tattoo minors.

Is it rude for me to ask for edits on my design? It will not hurt my feelings at all. Please make edits beforehand instead of on the spot/during the tattoo.

Will you tattoo a design on me that is from a different culture than my own? Sorry I won’t tattoo things of cultural significance on someone outside of that culture.

Can you tattoo over keloid or SH scars? I have worked with many scars and it all depends on the scar. I’m happy to have a consultation and talk about it.
