Getting a tattoo is an exciting experience!
Here’s how to make your session smooth and enjoyable:
Arrive on Time
A little early helps us start relaxed and ready.
Allow Enough Time
Sessions include setup, tattooing, short break times and aftercare guidance, so please plan accordingly.
Eat & Bring a Snack
Stay energized for a comfortable session.
Wear Comfy Clothing
Loose clothes make it easier to access the area being tattooed.
Stay Sober
For your safety and the best results, avoid alcohol or other impairing substances.
Plan Your Ride
Especially for longer sessions, having someone drop you off and pick you up helps.
Please Don’t Bring Friends
A calm, focused environment ensures the best experience.
Health & Age
I care about your health. Tattoo appointments are available to clients 18+.
Please Don't Use Numbing Creams
I ask that you avoid numbing creams because they alter skin texture, affecting ink absorption and creating a "mushy" feel that's harder to work on, potentially leading to uneven color or poor healing. Creams can wear off unexpectedly, causing intense, amplified pain later in a session, and disrupt the flow of long appointments. It's a hazard to your skin, your health, and the outcome of the tattoo. If you are concerned with your pain tolerance, I can recommend other pain management alternatives or I can provide you with multiple sittings
Aftercare
I provide clear instructions and offer high-quality products to keep your tattoo healing beautifully—so it looks amazing for years to come.
