✦ Design

When you arrive, I’ll have artwork ready for you to proof based on the ideas and references you submitted. From there, we’ll collaborate on any adjustments to layout, sizing, or final details to make sure everything feels right before we start. This part of the process is collaborative and making sure we’re aligned before anything goes on skin.

✦ Placement & Sizing

Once we finalize the design, I’ll prep a custom stencil so you can preview the placement on your body. I may also draw freehand elements directly on the skin to make sure the design flows naturally with your anatomy and sits well on the area we’re tattooing.

✦ Pricing

For smaller tattoos, I give a price range based on the size, placement and level of detail. Larger or more complex pieces are done at my standard rate of $200 per hour.

For multi-session tattoos, I can provide an estimate of sessions, however that estimate is not a guarantee. Factors such as skin type, placement and healing response all affect how the work progresses. Ultimately, the tattoo takes the time it needs to be done properly.

✦ Aftercare & Touch Ups

I’ll go over aftercare instructions with you verbally at your appointment and you’ll leave with written guidelines to take home. I’m always happy to answer any healing questions, no matter what stage of the process you’re in.

In the rare case your tattoo needs a touch up after it’s fully healed, I offer one complimentary session within 6 months of your session. There’s no charge for my time, I just ask that you cover a small supply fee to offset materials. Please note: this offer doesn’t apply to excessive fading in high-wear areas or touch ups needed due to neglect.
