Preparing for tattoo appointment

1. Exfoliate and moisturize in the days leading up to your appointment. This will make your skin easier to tattoo & can potentially make the tattoo hurt less

2. Gets a good nights rest

3. Shower!

4. Eat a big meal & drink lots of water

5. Avoid alcohol

6. Feel free to bring anything so youre comfy (headphones, book, snacks, light blanket or pillow)

Aftercare

1. Take off Saran Wrap 1-2 hrs after appointment

2. Wash fresh tattoo with unscented & antibacterial soap (Dial is great!)

3. Air dry or paper towel pat dry

4. Apply a THIN layer of Aquaphor

5. Repeat this twice a day for 2 weeks

6. Avoid submerging new tattoo in water (pools, oceans, baths), direct sunlight, and saunas for first 2 weeks

7. General rule of thumb is to wait at least 48 hours before working out

8. Your new tattoo is an open wound, it’s important to keep it clean & moisturized. Scabbing, flaking, and itchiness is normal, no picking or scratching!! Lightly tapping the itchy tattoo is a great alternative to scratching.

Pricing

Pricing for tattoos is typically structured as a flat rate. Once you complete and submit a form found in the “Book” section of this website, I will send you an email with a detailed price quote. While the quoted price is generally final, it may be subject to change based on factors such as adjustments to the design, size, or placement on the day of the appointment. Should any changes to the cost arise, I will ensure clear communication with you prior to starting the tattoo.

For larger-scale projects, I may charge an hourly rate, which ranges from $150 to $200 per hour, depending on the tattoo’s complexity, size, and placement. An estimated number of hours required will be included in your initial quote.

If you have a specific budget in mind, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I will do my best to accommodate your needs while maintaining the integrity of the design.
