It’s my first tattoo, any advice?
We are all such uniquely different people! It’s okay to feel your feels.
Yes there’s a pain element involved but we all process pain differently. Some placement on the body can be more sensitive than others.
Try to eat something beforehand and minimise your caffeine intake. Tattoos can vary in time so bring something to occupy yourself with if you need. Water and snacks will be provided and you’re welcome to bring your own.
I am there to guide you with my professional opinion and respect that this is your body and your choice.
Can I split your Half / Full day rates with my Mates or Lovers?
You sure can! Any time over the allocated session will flow into the specials hourly fixed rate.
Do you take Credit card payments?
Yes, I have a card tap option available.
Other options available for International requests.
Do you have gift vouchers?
I sure do!
I can either post the gift voucher to the recipient or email you a printable card for more time sensitive requests.
Please include the recipients name, how much you’d like to contribute to their tattoo, who it’s from and an address when applicable.
Can I bring a support person to my Tattoo Session?
Yes. Your support person is absolutely welcome to join. Please keep in mind a few factors when bringing a support person.
This is your tattoo. If you wish, your support person is welcome to contribute an opinion and I will also give you my professional advice but ultimately this is your body and your choice.
While I am tattooing, we will all have to keep conversations to a minimum. This is to ensure the best outcome for your tattoo. Sudden body movements can occur from talking/ laughing, which can affect the application of the tattoo.
I recommend your support person bring something to occupy their time, like a book or charged phone, as the tattoo process can take some time.
Can we talk while I am getting tattooed?
I love a good banter and genuinely enjoy the chats with all my clients!
That being said, when it comes to the application portion of our session I ask we keep conversations to a minimum. This is to ensure the BEST outcome for your tattoo. Sudden body movements from talking / laughing can affect the application of your tattoo along with my concentration. Conversations can also affect the time it takes to finish your tattoo.
Please remember, you’ll always have a voice throughout the tattooing process. There will be moments of pause and you will be heard.
What do you recommend I do while I am being tattooed?
If the position of the tattoo allows it, here are some suggestions for you…
Read that book you’ve been meaning to start.
Listen to a podcast you love.
Watch your favourite movies or series.
Or perhaps, this is that moment to give yourself permission to be still and sit with your body and mind?
All options are wonderful - remember to fully charge your devices.
How do I look after my new tattoo?
We will go through my aftercare instructions at the end of the session and you’ll receive a copy of the instructions discussed. You will also have time to ask any further queries.
I offer ‘second skin’ which is a breathable, waterproof, medical-grade adhesive bandage that forms a protective barrier over a new tattoo to prevent contamination and friction, promoting faster and cleaner healing.
