HOW DO I BOOK AN APPOINTMENT WITH YOU?
The best way to reach me is through the Booking Form or Instagram — both are great for sharing your ideas, reference photos, and placement details. I’ll get back to you as soon as possible to plan your session and bring your vision to life.
DOES GETTING A TATTOO HURT?
Short answer: yes.
Long answer: it depends! Everyone experiences pain differently, and factors like placement, size, and your own pain threshold can make a big difference. I always do my best to create a calm, comfortable environment so you can actually enjoy the experience.
DO YOU DO COVER-UPS?
Yes — depending on the tattoo and design. Every cover-up is unique, so please send me a clear photo of your existing tattoo and tell me what you’d like to achieve. I’ll review it and let you know what’s possible, along with my honest recommendations.
WHAT SHOULD I BRING (OR NOT BRING) TO MY APPOINTMENT?
Your comfort matters! Here’s what I suggest:
-
Bring an open mind, ideas, and references for your design.
-
If your tattoo will be in an intimate area, wear or bring adjustable clothing (zippers, ties, or stretchy fabric).
-
Black or dark clothes are ideal — ink stains happen!
-
Bring snacks, water, and maybe a pain reliever or anti-inflammatory for afterwards.
-
Headphones or something to keep you entertained are great too.
-
If you bring someone along, make sure they’re supportive and help keep you relaxed.
DO I NEED TO DO ANYTHING BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?
Yes! Healthy skin is the best canvas.
-
Avoid sunburn, tanning, or any cuts and scratches before your appointment.
-
Moisturize in the days leading up to your session.
-
Have a good meal before arriving — a full stomach helps with energy and comfort during your tattoo.
DO YOU USE NUMBING CREAMS OR CAN I BRING MY OWN?
Numbing creams can affect how the skin reacts and how the tattoo heals. Because of this, I generally don’t recommend them unless absolutely necessary.
If you feel you might need one, let me know ahead of time — I can recommend a suitable product and guide you on how to apply it safely before your session.
