FAQs

 

How do I book a tattoo appointment?

My tattoo books are closed at the moment. I will make updates on my social media platforms(FB & IG) when the time has come to open them again. Thank you for checking in.

I didn’t get a response back. Now what?

Due to the large amount of requests I receive, I cannot take on every project. If you do not hear from me within two weeks, it is unlikely that your idea was chosen. I do appreciate the time you took out to type and send me your idea/opportunity. Thank you thank you!

Do you have a waiting list?

I do not have a waiting list. I like to take projects on that will be scheduled to finish each time I open my books.

What do you charge?

My full day rate is $1700. A full day of work is around 6-7 hours of tattooing. My half day rate is $1000. A half day of work is around 3-4 hours of tattooing. Smaller pieces are priced out by piece.

Do I need to leave a deposit?

I do require a non refundable $400 deposit per day to book an appointment. Ex. 3 days booked=$1200 deposit. The $400 deposit comes off the price of your tattoo for that day. I do require a 48 hour notice if you have to reschedule your appointment.

What kind of payments do you accept?

I accept cash or card payments.

What kind of work are you taking on?

I am focusing on medium to large size pieces. I specialize in black and grey, expressive realism, portraits, and floral work. I would like to do add more experience in color portrait work. I am open to take on smaller pieces wherever I can fit them into the schedule. The more artistic freedom given, the more likely your tattoo idea will be selected.

What is your design process?

After your request form is accepted, I will reach out and chat with you about our appointment. We will discuss the information submitted along with any questions you or I may have. I will also ask for reference pictures if you have any. I do not design anything until the night before the appointment or the day of. I like working in the moment so the design/idea is fresh in my head. Depending on the style and design of the tattoo, there is also a chance I will draw the tattoo on your body with markers to get a better natural flow to fit with the flow of the part of your body I’m tattooing.

Do you do cover ups or reworks?

It all depends on what the existing tattoo looks like. It also depends on what the client wants to cover the existing tattoo with. I am ultimately open to these pieces if I feel the final product will be able to work as a cover.
