Does it hurt?
Yes, getting a tattoo does involve some discomfort — but the intensity varies a lot depending on placement. Some areas are more sensitive than others. We can talk about this together during the consultation based on where you're planning your piece.
What's the minimum age?
18 years old. A minor can only be tattooed with a parent or legal guardian present during the session.
Is a deposit required to book, and is it refundable?
A deposit is required to confirm every appointment. It's refunded if the cancellation is made at least one week before the session. Rescheduling isn't possible, though — changing the date counts as a cancellation.
Are touch-ups included?
Yes. A touch-up session is included in the price if the result needs it after healing.
How long does a project take?
It always depends on the size and level of detail of the project — every piece is different. We'll talk about it during the consultation to give you a realistic idea before starting.
How is the price determined?
The price is based on the number of hours the session takes, depending on the complexity and size of the project.
Do I need a precise idea, or is a vague inspiration enough?
Even a vague idea is enough to get started. That said, having some inspiration (images, references, the mood you're going for) helps me move quickly in the best direction for you.
What does a session look like, start to finish?
We start by reviewing the project together, then apply the stencil and let it sit for a bit. The tattooing begins after that, with breaks whenever you need them — and for longer sessions, we take time to eat. At the end, we take photos of the result, and that's the end of the session.
Do you do cover-ups?
Yes, if the condition of the existing tattoo allows it — meaning the design is clear enough and there's a real possibility of working with it to create something new.
What's the cancellation policy?
The deposit is refunded if the cancellation is made at least one week before the session. Rescheduling isn't possible — changing the date counts as a cancellation.
Can I bring someone with me?
Absolutely.
What are your hygiene and sterilization standards?
An annual sanitation training refresher from SB Distribution is completed, to guarantee strict hygiene and sterilization standards at all times.
