Frequently Asked Questions and Information

My books are closed currently, which means I’m not taking on custom tattoo requests. They will reopen on Saturday October 5th for December appointments.

At the time of the booking date, I will make available a ‘booking’ page here on my website to access for custom tattoo requests. There will be a form asking for information pertaining to you, and your tattoo request and concept.

This is the only way to book with me. I will not read DMs explaining tattoo ideas.

Please note that this does not guarantee an appointment.

I schedule appointments and consultations monthly, and take requests through a submission form on my website on a planned date.

From there, I decide which projects to take on based on interest, skillset, and alignment. I send out emails letting you know if I have chosen to take on your project and what the next steps are. I send emails out to EVERYONE, despite whether we move forward on the project together.

It typically takes 1-3 weeks for me to reach out to let you know if I’ve decided to take on your project. I will send a booking link to you if we are moving forward on your design, in which you can schedule your own appointment while paying your deposit. Please note, I only schedule consultations for those who have an appointment date set/ scheduled.

Starting with appointments booked during the October ’24 booking round, I will be charging based on a full day (6 hours at $1000), half day (3 hours at $600), or select hourly rates.

Pricing takes into account size, placement, details, material & supplies, time spent making changes and drawing, doing freehand work, etc.

For single session projects, I will provide you your final, fixed cost at the time of our consultation/booking.

For multi-session projects, I will provide you a range of how many sessions I expect we will need.

If you are working within a specific budget, please include this within your booking request and I will do my best to design/work within it. If this requires adaptations to the design/idea, I'm always happy to discuss changes in our consultation or provide alternative options. 

I do require a deposit to schedule an appointment and consultation.

Deposits are $100 for small- medium tattoos, and $150 for full day sessions.

Deposits are applicable to the total cost of your tattoo. If you have multiple sessions, your initial deposit will be applicable to the last appointment scheduled. Please note that your deposit is nonrefundable, and will cover one appointment reschedule if given at least 72 hours (3 days) notice.

Your deposit will be forfeited and a new one will need to be placed If you need to:

reschedule a second time, rescheduling under 3 days notice, cancelling after booking an appointment, not showing up to your appointment, or showing up more than 30 minutes late.

Anytime I release a design that I would like to tattoo, an inquiry can be made on the design inquiry form here on my website, or through the custom booking form when I open my books.

Please list the number associated and desired placement.

Small adjustments can be made, but if there are numerous changes you would like, I would recommend submitting a custom request when my books open.

Your original deposit covers one reschedule if given at least 72 hours notice. If for any reason you need to reschedule a second time, or if given shorter notice, the original deposit is forfeited and a new one will need to be paid to get back on the books.

Please allow for 1-2 weeks response time. I respond to inquiries in small chunks in order to stay organized. Even if I don’t accept your proposal you will still receive an email from me.

It's my job as an artist to turn you ideas into a long lasting and beautiful tattoos, while staying true to my artistic expression. Once we've settled on a direction for your tattoo (sometimes with a consultation), all you've got to do is wait. You'll receive your design at the appointment, with time available to make any necessary changes.

This situation varies case by case. Appointment slots are booked based on the discussed design. I can always discuss any changes you may have, but know that our appointment slot may not accommodate your changes. You're welcomed to make small changes and adjustments to your design after your original request. Any drastic changes may result in the forfeit of your appointment slot, needing to reschedule.

Yes, but doing so will forfeit your deposit. I would recommend rescheduling!

All designs will be available at the time of your appointment, with time to make small changes beforehand, and explore sizing options.

Yes I do! Because it will be apparent whether a touchup is needed within the first few months, I do them for free for the first 6 months after the tattoo was made. After that I do charge a $100 minimum for touchups.

If you have pre-existing skin conditions such as eczema, you can be tattooed as long as the placement is not where you have continued flare ups.

Please mention this when booking as this will need to be considered while designing.

I do not tattoo any other designs than the ones I draw myself. There are various reasons (a couple being to ensure it is tattooable, and staying true to my artistic expression).

No, I do not tattoo anyone under the age of 18.

Micro tattoos, color, other artists work, small birth flower bouquets, script, realism

Florals, botanicals, fantasy/whimsical designs, insects, snakes, dragons, animals, fish, birds, skulls, tarot card inspired designs, vases, scissors, daggers, to name just a few!

Yes I do. Please include all people in one booking form.

Tips are always appreciated, but never required. Non-monetary tips are also appreciated and loved.

Yes, I do!

I can take card payments at the end of our appointment, or cash. Cash is preferred, but I understand if carrying a larger amount of cash is unnerving.
