FAQ

  • What are your rates?

    I charge all tattoos at a flat rate- you will be provided with a price estimate when I reply to your form.

    My minimum is $150

  • Why do you have a minimum?

    Mainly, my minimum is to ensure I can pay my bills and cover supply cost. I have to set up the same amount of supplies for a 1 inch tattoo that I do for a 5 inch tattoo, and supplies can be expensive!

    I have changed my minimum for $100 to $150 because I prefer to book larger scale peices or do multiple tattoos in one session.

    I’m happy to do a smaller tattoo, but I will not charge less than $150

  • What forms of payment do you accept?

    Cash or card only please!

    Card transactions will have a 3% card fee.

  • How can I prepare for my appointment, do I need anything?

    After we have communicated about your design and the date of your appointment, not much more is needed, stay hydrated, and moisturize your skin! All you have to bring day-of is your photo ID! You can visit my “what to expect” section for more info.

  • AH! it's my first tattoo! Do you have any tips?

    Don’t worry! Visit my “what to expect” section :) There I go over all you need to know!

  • How do I take care of my tattoo?

  • My saniderm came off before the three days were up, is my tattoo going to be okay?

    yes! No need to fret! just start your aftercare!

  • Can I bring a guest?

    Yes! I allow one guest per client.

  • How do I book an appointment for two people?

    Please fill out only one form with both of your availability, and let me know in the tattoo description you’d like an appointment for more than one person

  • Are you supposed to tip your tattoo artist?

    I try and keep my prices relatively low while still being able to make a living- so tips are greatly appreciated, however, are by no means expected or required when being tattooed by me!

    You want a tattoo but can’t swing the extra tip? No biggie! I’m appreciative of your support either way!

  • Do you offer consultations?

    Yes!

    consultations are free for large tattoos, cover-ups, or filler appointments.

    If I do not suggest a consult, but you’d like a consult to see a small tattoo prior to our appointment, there will be a $35 fee.

  • Is it okay if I just put my headphones on and zone out for our appointment?

    Of course! Don’t be afraid to let me know you prefer a less chatty appointment (I’m a yapper)! Whatever I can do to make sure you have a comfortable experience at the studio, I will do!

  • Do you do touch-ups?

    Yes! I offer one free touch-up within a year of getting your tattoo! Please send me an email with your availability to book a touch-up!

  • Do I need a touch-up?

    Maybe! Touch-ups are a pretty normal part of the tattoo process. Especially for fine line tattoos, You might want to schedule a touch-up appointment if you notice areas of your tattoo are a bit more faded than others, or a large area of color or black ink has become patchy/unsaturated.

  • How do I book multiple tattoos for one session?

    Please fill out ONE form for all the tattoos you’d like to book, I suggest using Pinterest to create a collage of ideas to help organize your references!
