“how should i prepare for my tattoo?”

• make sure to regularly exfoliate and moisturize the area you’d like to be tattooed in, at least one week before the appointment!

• stay hydrated, and please eat well before your tattoo! feel free to bring food or snacks, please bring your own water bottle!

• i like to chat with my clients, but i recommend bringing your headphones for longer sessions

• i will not tattoo you if you are intoxicated with drugs or alcohol

“when can i see the design?”

i will do my best to send the design at least a day prior, however, please do not ask to see it earlier. i will most likely send the design during the night

“how do i take care of my tattoo?”

i will provide printed care instructions on the day of the appointment, but here is what you need:

• Unscented, antibacterial (bar or liquid) soap (Dr. Bronner's Unscented Baby Mild Liquid Soap, or gentle cleansers like Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser or Dove Sensitive Skin Fragrance Free Beauty Bar.

• Unscented lotion or ointment (Cetaphil, Lumberderm and coconut oil; if you’re using aquaphor, please use a very thin layer NO VASELINE PLEASE!!)
