FAQ

How do I book an appointment?

All tattoo appointments are by request only. To begin, use the contact form on the website and include a clear description of your idea, reference images if you have them, placement on the body, approximate size, and any relevant details. Once your request is reviewed, you will be contacted to discuss next steps.

Do you accept walk-ins?

No. I work by appointment only and tattoo one client at a time. This allows every project to receive full attention without rushing or distractions.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. A booking fee is required to secure your appointment. This fee goes toward your session total and is non-refundable. It ensures your time is reserved and protects against last-minute cancellations.

Can I bring a friend?

Only the client being tattooed is allowed in the tattoo area. Guests are welcome to wait in the lobby if needed.

Do you do consultations in person?

Most consultations begin through the contact form. In-person consultations may be scheduled if needed depending on the project.

Do you do cover-ups?

Yes, depending on the size, location, and condition of the existing tattoo. Not all tattoos are good candidates for cover-ups, so photos are required for evaluation.

Do you design tattoos in advance?

Every tattoo is custom, but full finished designs are generally created shortly before the session. Tattoo design often depends on body shape, movement, and placement, which cannot be finalized without seeing the area in person. I may provide rough concept direction beforehand when appropriate.

Can I see the design before my appointment?

In most cases, designs are reviewed and adjusted on the day of your appointment. Minor changes are expected, and collaboration is part of the process. If a large design review is requested in advance, it may require a separate design session.

What styles do you work in?

I work in a wide range of styles including realism, surrealism, black and grey, color, portrait work, abstract design, and large-scale projects. While many clients are drawn to my cosmic and futuristic designs, I am not limited to any single aesthetic.

How much will my tattoo cost?

Pricing depends on size, detail, placement, and time required. Large or complex projects are typically done at a day rate. Smaller pieces may be priced by the piece. Final pricing is discussed after reviewing your request.

What should I do to prepare for my appointment?

Get a good night’s sleep.
Eat before your appointment.
Stay hydrated.
Avoid alcohol and drugs at least 24 hours prior.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being tattooed.

Do you offer numbing?

Topical numbing may be allowed in certain situations, but it must be discussed before your appointment. Not all products are suitable for tattooing.

How should I care for my tattoo after?
Aftercare instructions will be provided at your appointment. Following them carefully is essential for proper healing and long-term quality.

What if I’m running late?

Please communicate if you are delayed. Excessive lateness may result in cancellation with loss of deposit.

What if I need to reschedule?

Rescheduling requires advance notice. Booking fees may be transferred once when proper notice is given.

Can I change my design after booking?

Minor adjustments are normal. Major design changes may require rescheduling or a design session depending on the scope.

Do you tattoo over scars or stretch marks?

This depends on healing, age of the scar, and location. Photos are needed for evaluation.

What payment methods do you accept?

I accept credit/debit card, ApplePay, Venmo, Cash
