Questions? We’ve got answers

Everything you need to know before booking your next tattoo. If you’re curious, you’re in the right place.

How do I book an appointment?

Booking is easy—just fill out the contact form or send a direct message on Instagram. I’ll get back to you personally to chat about your ideas and set up a time for a consultation that works for you.

How do I prepare for a consultation?

Bring any references or inspiration you like, even if it’s just a rough idea. You don’t need to have everything planned out — that’s what the consultation is for. We’ll sit down together and design something that fits you perfectly.

How do I take care of my new tattoo?

If you’ve got Second Skin on it:
Don’t mess with it. Don’t scrub it in the shower, don’t soak it, and keep it out of direct sunlight. Just leave it be for the first 3–4 days. When it’s time to take it off, gently remove it (like pulling off a command strip) and start your aftercare.

After Second Skin comes off:
Wash it twice a day with antibacterial soap, keep it moisturized as needed throughout the day, and stick with that for about two weeks.

If you don’t have Second Skin:
Same basics, just start right away. Clean it twice daily with antibacterial soap, moisturize throughout the day as needed, and keep it going for about two weeks.

For both:
No soaking (no pools, hot tubs, or Jacuzzis), no direct sun, and no scrubbing, scratching, or picking—let it heal in peace.

What should I do to prepare for my appointment?

Get a good night’s sleep, stay hydrated, and eat a solid meal beforehand — your body will thank you. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being tattooed. No need to shave ahead of time; we’ll take care of that if needed. Don’t forget a valid ID, and feel free to bring snacks or a friend along for support.

Can I bring a friend or family member?

Of course! You’re welcome to bring a friend or family member for support. Since our space is cozy and seating is limited, we ask that guests be limited to one person per appointment.

What should I avoid before getting a tattoo?

Well… try not to show up half wore-out or half wild. That means skipping the heavy drinking, drugs, all-night partying, and rolling in on no sleep. Don’t come in sunburnt, freshly waxed, or with your skin all beat up—we need a good canvas, not a rough draft.

Best to eat a solid meal, get some rest, and make halfway decent life choices the night before. And if you can help it, avoid anything dramatic—like car wrecks or decisions your wallet’s gonna regret later.
