FAQ

  • Yep. All appointments require a $50 nonrefundable deposit.

    This will hold your appointment time and cover any prep or design work. If you need to reschedule, your deposit can transfer with at least 48 hours’ notice. No-shows or last-minute cancellations forfeit the deposit.

  • Fill out the booking form on my site with your idea, placement, and reference images. Once I review it, I’ll get back to you with availability and next steps. Got a quick question? DM is fine too.

  • $50 deposit to lock your spot. Pay the rest when we’re done with our session. Tips are always appreciated. Cash is preferred, but Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle work too.

  • I price pieces based on size, placement, detail, and whether we’re doing color or black & grey. Flash sometimes has a fixed rate. Once I get a sense of what you’re thinking, I’ll send a quote—straightforward, no mystery math.

  • I am currently focused on American traditional and some Japanese traditional style tattoos, but I’m always down to take on something new! Check out my portfolio to get a feel for my work/style.

  • Get a good night’s sleep, eat before your appointment, and stay hydrated. Avoid alcohol or blood thinners 24 hours beforehand. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a snack if we’re going long.

  • You’re welcome to bring one support person, but space is limited and the vibe stays best when it’s low-key. No kids or large groups, please.

  • Absolutely. My studio is a welcoming and respectful space for everyone.
