After-care & Policies
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
For medium/large scale tattoos, the time estimation I provide is not always accurate as some tattoos take longer than I initially expected.
I highly recommend you book for a time when you do not have any major priorities after the session.
Avoid drinking alcohol, caffeine or nicotine 24 hours before your appointment.These substances can result in excess bleeding which makes tattooing more difficult for the artist.
Ensure you have showered and applied personal hygiene products before your appointment. The adrenaline causes most people to sweat.
Please eat a solid meal and drink water at least 2 hours before your appointment.
RESCHEDULE POLICY
Please let me know 24 hours ahead of time that you would like to reschedule.
Last minute rescheduling (made less than 24 hours prior to your appointment) will result in a $35 charge to book a new date/time.
LATE POLICY
Please let me know if you will be running late for an appointment, things happen and I understand.
Clients more than 25 minutes late for their appointment will have to reschedule and are subject to a $50 reschedule fee.
GUESTS
1-2 Guest are allowed. Please inform me on guest prior to your appointment start time.
No kids/pets are allowed.
AFTER CARE FOR YOUR ART WORK

Reach out to your artist (me) about any concerns/ questions.
