-
Does it hurt?It is natural to wonder about the level of pain involved. While everyone's pain tolerance is different, it is important to note that the sensation of pain during tattooing is linked to the presence of free nerve endings and nociceptors in the skin, which react to tissue-damaging stimuli. However, it is also worth noting that the body releases endorphins and adrenaline during the tattooing process, which can result in a euphoric state and make the experience more enjoyable for some individuals.
-
Can i workout after the tattoo session?NO, Avoid overstraining and overheating the tattooed area during the first week after the session. Engaging in intense workouts can raise your body temperature and cause excessive sweating, which may prolong the healing process and potentially affect the outcome of your tattoo.
-
Can I drink alcohol after the tattoo session?No, Alcohol significantly lowers your immunity, so the results can be unpredictable. Abstain from alcohol for 5-7 days after and before the session.
-
How long does a session take?Plan ahead and make sure you have enough time set aside. A full day tattoo session can take more than six-eight hours, including breaks and discussions of details, so it is important to clear your schedule for the day.
-
How old I have to be get a tattoo?It is strictly prohibited to tattoo a minor, even with parental consent. Therefore, we have a strict No Minors policy in place, and all clients must be at least 18 years of age to receive a tattoo. Additionally, we require valid Photo ID to prove age, and we do not make any exceptions to this policy. We understand that this policy may cause inconvenience, but it is important to prioritise the safety and well-being of our clients and comply with state laws.

How do I schedule a walk-in appointment?I am generally booked a few weeks in advance. However i also offer walk-in sessions on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on availability due to cancellations. I will always do my best to accommodate your request to the best of my ability.
-
Can I bring my friend?We kindly request that you attend your tattoo appointment alone, similar to a doctor's office. This is to ensure that the tattoo artist can fully focus on their work without distractions. Bringing a friend may divert the artist's attention and potentially compromise the quality of the tattoo. Additionally, it is important to consider that fatigue can increase when multiple individuals are present during the session. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in maintaining a conducive environment for the tattoo artist to provide the best possible service.

How much does a tattoo cost?The cost of a tattoo can vary depending on several factors, including the style of tattoo, size, detail of the design, and location on the body where it will be placed. All tattoos start at $120, but the final price depends on the aforementioned factors. The hourly rate is $180 + Tax.

Things you need to know before the session?Yes, there are a few important things to keep in mind. Firstly, it is important to note that not all skin types are suitable for certain tattoo styles, such as color realism. It is recommended to choose a body part where your skin is the palest, as the lighter the canvas, the more shades are visible to the artist, resulting in a better-looking tattoo. Secondly, it is important to moisturise your skin with Bepanthen or any other moisturiser at least a week prior to the session, a couple of times a day, to ensure that your skin is well-moisturised. Thirdly, Do not consume liquor at-least 72 hours before and after tattoo, instead drink ample amount of water and high protein. Walking around outside all day in the summer, without drinking any water and then coming get tattooed on an empty stomach is a sure recipe for passing out. Therefore eat well before you come in, and remember to stay hydrated. Fourth, wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that will allow easy access to the area being tattooed. It is also important to consider the placement of your tattoo when choosing your clothing. For example, if you are getting a tattoo on your back or ribs, wearing a bra may not be suitable, and if you are getting a tattoo on your thigh, wearing shorts or a dress that ends above the knee is recommended meal. Lastly, it is recommended to make the depilation of the chosen body part just before the session, as this will make the process easier.
-
Do I need to leave a deposit if I decide to schedule an appointment?Yes, a minimum of $120 is deposit for tattoos costing less than $200. For tattoo costing above $200, a 50% deposit is required to secure your spot. This deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable, and it will be applied towards the final price of your tattoo. This policy ensures commitment from both parties involved and allows the artist to prepare the design and station for your session. By requiring a deposit, we aim to ensure a smooth and efficient process for both you and the artist. It helps us manage our schedule effectively and provide you with the best possible experience during your tattoo session.

Do you do tattoo Cover ups ?Yes, I do take all kinds of cover-up projects, including creating new designs over old/existing tattoos, covering up scars, birthmarks, or any kind of mark or spot you want to hide with a beautiful design. I understand that everyone has their own unique reasons for wanting a cover-up tattoo, and I am here to help you achieve your desired result. However, it's important to understand that there are limitations, and it's not always possible to choose a design that exactly matches your liking. Therefore, it's important to be flexible and open to suggestions from the artist.It's also important to understand that the process of covering up a tattoo is a long one and takes multiple sessions to layer up the tattoo ink. Therefore, patience is key. Cover-up tattoos cost more than fresh new tattoos because of the expertise, skill set, effort, and time required. However, I assure you that the end result will be worth it.If you're interested in getting a cover-up tattoo, I highly recommend booking an in-person appointment and discussing the possibilities with the artist. Together, we can come up with a design that you'll love and that will make you feel confident and beautiful.
