F.A.Q.s

New to Tattoos? Here’s What to Know:

Every tattoo is unique, and so is the time it takes. Factors like skin type, design detail, size, and placement all affect how long your session will run. That’s why I don’t give exact time estimates—I focus on quality, not the clock.

Your comfort and the final result matter most.

How much will it cost me?

I book in Half or Full Day sessions to keep things simple and flexible. This lets us focus on creating the best possible piece without rushing the process.

  • *Full Day is (~6 hours) $1000 Beginning Large scale work: back pieces, half-sleeves/sleeves etc.
  • *Half Day is (~3 hours) $600 ~5”- 8” area
  • *Smaller sizes flat rate of $100-$600

Fill out the consultation form and we can figure out what best suits your ideas.

Does it hurt?

Some spots hurt more than others, but everyone’s pain tolerance is different. Most people find it very manageable. I’ll check in with you during the session and we can always take breaks if needed.

How do I prepare for my tattoo?

Make sure you are well rested before a big appointment. Eat before you arrive and wear comfortable clothing. Feel free to bring headphones or anything you may need to entertain yourself for longer sessions.

What's the healing process like?

Healing usually takes 2–4 weeks. I’ll give you clear aftercare instructions to help your tattoo heal properly and stay looking its best. Avoid sun, swimming, and heavy workouts for a bit while it heals. Moisture and frictions can mess with the healing and color retention.

Can you copy an exact tattoo that i bring in?

I’m happy to use your reference for inspiration, but I always create custom designs to make sure your tattoo is original and fits your body best. I like to provide unique artwork for my clients.

Can I bring a friend?

You’re welcome to bring one support person, but I do ask that they remain respectful and low-key during the session. No crowds, no filming without asking.

Appointment only or do you take walk-ins?

I usually work by appointment but I can make same-day appointments if time allows
