Gently exfoliate area to be tattooed 24-48 hours before your session. this step should be skipped if within 24 hours of your appointment, as exfoliation can cause micro-abrasions in the skin.
Moisturize skin often in the days leading up to your tattoo.
Please do not shave the area. i will take the time during your session to shave you, to avoid any potential cuts. if you have very dense/long hair, you are welcome to clip the hair shorter using electric trimmers.
Arrive to your appointment clean, fed, hydrated, and comfortably dressed.

What should I bring to my appointment?You can not get tattooed without a valid ID and form of payment. If you show up without these things, your deposit will be forfeited and you'll need to put another deposit down to reschedule your tattoo. ​ Beyond that, arrive to your tattoo hydrated and fed. You are welcome to bring items of comfort such as a pillow, headphones, water bottles, snacks. You will never be asked to remove clothing unless required for access to the tattoo area (we have stickers/pasties available if needed). With that being said, please dress in clothing that allows your artist access to the area being tattooed, and that you don't mind ruining permanently with ink.

Can I bring my friends with me?Yes! We have space for one person to sit in the tattoo booth with you, but we offer other seating areas, refreshments, and shopping for you and anyone you'd like to bring! If you plan to have a child with you, please bring another adult who can watch and entertain them while you are getting tattooed.
-
I need to cancel/reschedule my appointment. What are my options?Clients must give at least a 48-hour notice to reschedule their appointments (limited to one reschedule per booking) to avoid loss of their deposit. ​ Cancellation of the appointment, more than one reschedule, or an outright no-show will result in loss of the deposit. ​ If you need to reschedule, please reach out via email ASAP!
-
Can I get tattooed while pregnant/breastfeeding?We do not perform tattoo procedures on individuals who are currently pregnant or have been breastfeeding for less than 6 months. While the risk of complications from getting tattooed is small, it is not zero; our staff is committed to providing the safest environment possible for each client.
-
When can I see my design?Your artist will show you the design at your tattoo appointment (unless it's a freehanded design). Small changes will be allowed, however total design changes will be asked to reschedule and the deposit will be forfeited. Due to this, we ask that you be as descriptive as necessary when consulting your artist about your tattoo. ​ If you feel strongly about seeing your tattoo design before committing to an appointment date, we can book you an appointment for a drawing review.
-
How does a drawing review appointment work?Instead of choosing a date for your tattoo and placing a conventional deposit, you will pay a non-refundable $50 fee and choose a date to come back to the studio to review your design with the artist. This fee is to compensate your artist for the extra time spent on your appointment and does not go toward the price of your tattoo. It will be forfeited in the event of a no-show. ​ After confirming the design, a deposit will be required and you can then choose a date for your tattoo procedure. *If multiple drawings and reviews are required, you'll be charged a $50 fee for each review appointment booked.*
-
Do you do piercings?No we are a tattoo-only studio.
