Your Enquiry

For booking please include the idea (flash available or references for custom) with an estimate of size and placement. If you have other tattoos surrounding the area and a very specific gap to fill, please send a photo of said area with your booking.

Though it's not an absolute necessity, if it is your first tattoo, it is helpful if you tell me so. It gives me the opportunity to provide you with more information prior and after your appointment and give you a more comfortable and knowledgeable first experience.

Deposits & Payment

I require a deposit to make a booking. This is the only way to secure your date and time slot.

All PayPal deposits and payments need to be made via friends and family. If they aren't, I will refund the transaction and ask you to do it again.

Cancellations

I require 48 hours' notice for cancellations to rebook. If you cancel last minute or if you no-show, your deposit will be lost and you may not be offered another appointment.

Health & Accessibility

If you have a health condition (nerve problems or damage, tics, OCD, blood-thinning medication, or anything that could potentially affect your ability to sit or the tattoo process) it is incredibly important that you personally disclose that with me ahead of time as well as on the consent form.

If you have any sensory issues (noise, texture, smell, touch, etc.) that may potentially affect your comfort during a session, please tell me. I want to make everyone's experience an enjoyable one if it is in my capabilities.

Numbing Cream

If you are using numbing cream for the first time, please do a patch test of the product 48 hours before the appointment (preferably in a spot away from the area we are tattooing, just in case you have a reaction). I have numbing creams I recommend and like working with more than others so don't hesitate to ask for help if you are unsure.

After the Tattoo

After the tattoo is completed, I will wrap your tattoo in cling film or cover with second skin (your preference) and provide you with comprehensive aftercare.

Touch-ups

Touch-ups are part of the overall service and a normal part of tattooing. If ink has fallen out or hasn't healed correctly, the first touch-up is free of charge. Feel free to contact me after 2 weeks of your initial appointment to book this in if needed.

Custom Work

For custom work, please do not ask me to show you the design before the appointment. Unless a client is travelling from overseas and we have a very big piece to get right in one shot, this is non-negotiable. I will not show anything until your session to protect my work and also have a healthier quality of life and work-life separation. I will allocate time for changes on the day during your appointment if needs be.

Please don't repeatedly message me for photos of tattoos. Sometimes it takes me months after an appointment to get to photos to post or I just don't get a good one. If you would like me to take a picture on your phone after the tattoo, that is perfectly fine and something I am happy to do.

What to Wear

If you have a specific placement that requires exposure to an area and you still want to be comfortable and covered, here are my clothing recommendations:

• Chest: bikini tops with ties, tube tops and strapless bras, button-open shirts (nipple covers will be provided)
• Stomach/sternum: button-open shirt or tube tops (nipple covers will be provided)
• High hip/bum/under bum/groin area: wrap skirt, bikini bottoms with tie sides, popper track pants, stretchy boxers, a boil-washed towel

I always have a freshly boil-washed blanket available to cover extremities, provided the fabric goes nowhere near the area we are working on.

A modesty screen can be provided on request for more intimate areas.

Consent

I will never touch or physically move anyone at any point during the process without explicit consent. This includes taking photos of the tattoo at the end.
