I do both cover-ups and scar cover-ups, however not all tattoos or scars can be covered. I would have to evaluate each case and assess whether I can deliver the results you are looking for. I will always be honest and realistic with these cases. When filling out the bookings form, please include clear photos of the tattoo/scar you wish to cover up and your ideas to cover it up with.

Question 7

Can I see preview or draft of the tattoo design?

Accepted Answer

I will be working on your design the week of your tattoo appointment, and will send a draft of the design a day or two before. This gives us time to discuss any and make any adjustments or changes to the design. It is important to give me enough details and photo references during the booking process so I can be on the same page as you and interpret your ideas successfully. I will always allow time on the day as well to make any small adjustments as well. 
​
Drafts are generally rough designs and just to give you a general idea and look of the final tattoo. Stencils will be made prior to the tattoo, size options and placements will also be discussed on the day too.

Question 10

Do you use numbing cream?

Accepted Answer

I am open to using numbing cream depending on the project. It is not my recommendation to use though as numbing cream changes the skins texture and makes it harder for the ink to go in the skin and thus can effect the heal. Tattoos aren't pain-free but I try to make your appointment as easy as I can. If you feel like you can't deal with the pain and unsure about using numbing cream we can create a plan. Feel free to contact me about this.

Question 11

Please ensure you are well rested and have eaten before coming in. Also, be sure to drinks lots of water.. Please refrain from consuming drugs & alcohol at least 24 hours before the appointment.

Dress appropriately and accordingly to the tattoo you are going to get.

If your session is expected to be more than a few hours, please feel free to bring food, snacks and a water bottle with you. Feel free to also bring your own entertainment such as an iPad or laptop, earphones or a book its also recommend to bring your own phone charger.

Do I need to be 18+ to get a tattoo?

Accepted Answer

I won’t tattoo anyone under the age of 18, even with consent from a legal guardian or parent.

Question 13

Does it hurt?

Pain is subjective. The level of pain will vary depending on the placement of your tattoo, but will also depend on how long your session is and whether you have eaten and are well rested. To manage your own expectations, always expect some level of pain or discomfort.
