Frequently asked questions

Everything I get asked most often. If your question isn’t here, message me directly.

Before you book

Does it hurt?

Yes, getting a tattoo involves some pain, but the intensity varies a lot with placement. Some areas are more sensitive than others. We can talk about it during the consultation based on where you want your piece.

Do I need a precise idea, or is a vague inspiration enough?

Even a vague idea is enough to start. That said, some inspiration (images, references, the mood you’re after) helps me head in the best direction for you quickly.

Do you do cover-ups?

Yes, if the existing tattoo allows it: the design has to be clear enough, with a real possibility of working with it to create something new.

What’s the minimum age?

18. A minor can be tattooed with permission from a parent or legal guardian.

Can I bring someone with me?

Absolutely.

Pricing and booking

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.

Is a deposit required to book, and is it refundable?

A deposit is required to confirm every appointment. It’s refunded if you cancel at least one week before the session. Rescheduling isn’t possible: changing the date counts as a cancellation.

What’s the cancellation policy?

The deposit is refunded if you cancel at least one week before the session. Rescheduling isn’t possible: changing the date counts as cancelling.

Are touch-ups included?

Yes. A touch-up session is included in the price if the result needs it after healing.

The session

How long does a project take?

It depends on the size and level of detail: every piece is different. We’ll talk about it during the consultation so you have a realistic idea before we start.

What does a session look like, start to finish?
  1. We review the project together.
  2. I apply the stencil and let it set for a moment.
  3. The tattooing begins, with breaks whenever you need them. For long sessions, we take time to eat.
  4. We take photos of the result, and the session is done.
What are your hygiene and sterilization standards?

I complete SB Distribution’s sanitation course every year, to guarantee strict hygiene and sterilization standards at all times. All equipment is single-use.
