How do I schedule a consult or appointment?

To schedule a consultation, click on consultations and fill out the forms there.

After we have had a proper consultation, you may book your own appointment times for that specific tattoo.

Existing clients and on going projects may use the appointments calendar to book until completion of that project.

* Yes you will need to have a consultation for all new work. If you book an appointment without a consultation OR without talking with me beforehand, that appointment may be canceled until we have completed a conversation about your new project.


As of 2022 Saturday appointments will require a 2 hour minimum unless otherwise spceified

Will you do cover-ups and or reworks?

I absolutely do coverups, but you must be open to design collaboration, size and placements.
I will also rework your older tattoos, but will have to see them in person to make that decision. Also if it is unfinished due to circumstances beyond your control, I would love to help make it a better experience and finish it for you.


Do you take deposits?

Yes, I take deposits on all tattoos that require appointments or are one off designs, including flash tattoos.

These deposits are non refundable / non exchangeable ( no exceptions ) and will guarantee your appointment times until we finish the tattoo.

The deposit will come out of your last session of any tattoo appointment(s)

Deposits are $100 for small work and $250 for large scale hourly work.

Half and full day appointments, deposits to be determined at time of booking.


Do you have a cancellation policy?

Yes, my cancellation policy is as follows :

If one does not give at least 24 hours notice for flash or ready to go pieces, or 48 hours notice for custom work ( aside from actual emergencies and circumstances beyond our human control ) your deposit will be forfeited and a new one will need to be put down in order to make another appointment.

No call, or No shows deposits will be forefitted immediately, No exceptions


Can I bring people with me to my appointment?

Yes, you may bring 1 person with you to your tattoo session, but we can not accommodate more than that due to the close spaces that we have and share with other artists.


Can I see my custom design ahead of time?

You will only be able to see the drawings the day of your appointment. If there are any small changes that need to be made, we can do those on the spot and continue on with the appointment. Any major changes will require a re-scheduling of your appointment, due to having to redraw the entire piece to accommodate said changes.

If you are happy with the work that I have done prior and if you are happy with what you see in the galleries here / tattoos in the real world, I would hope that you will be happy with your drawing the day of. Trust me, I understand the excitement of getting a new tattoo!


Do you have pre-drawn custom designs or flash?

Yes, I generally have a handful of ideas large and small that are ready to go.

I will link those here once the time has come and people can make appointments straight away for those.
