Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an appointment?
Simple! Click on the "Book an Appointment" button at the top. From there you can click a link to fill out a short form telling me more about the project.
What if I need to reschedule my appointment?
If you are feeling under the weather please reach out to us as soon as possible and we will get you rescheduled
How long will my tattoo take?
For larger tattoos, the process is quite involved and I highly suggest to set aside your day for your appointment.
For smaller or medium tattoos, set aside a few hours for your appointment.
The typical tattoo day looks like:
Starting with your paperwork
Starting the numbing process if you opt for it(see numbing cream policy below)
Figuring out the placement and size of your piece
Stenciling (This may take a few tries in order to get the perfect placement)
Getting comfortable and tattooing!
We take bathroom and stretch breaks when needed
Finally when we're all done, we'll go over aftercare, get you wrapped up and checked out!
How can I prepare?
-Drink water
-Get a good nights sleep
-Eat a good meal the morning of.
-Bring a snack/beverage (In closed containers)
-Pillow
-Headphones
-Wear loose comfortable clothing that will limit obstruction to the area that we will be tattooing, and that you don't mind getting ink on!
Numbing cream
-I recommend only using Tattoo Numbing Cream brand.
-Make sure that you follow the instructions on their site and do a test spot before the day of your appointment.
-I do sell them at the shop, you can pick it up before your appointment and apply it yourself or I can put it on for you after you get there.
-If you want to purchase and apply it yourself I sell them for $20 for a 3g tube. Apply it 90 minutes prior to your appointment, following the instructions listed on their website. That way we can get right to it!
-Alternatively, I can apply it before your appointment at the shop and would charge $45 (which we will add to the total at the end of the day) for the time, materials and application.
-Make sure that you let us know that you’re planning on using numbing cream and let us know if you have any questions!!
