Have questions about getting a tattoo?

Before your tattoo appointment:

Do I need to book an appointment?
Yes, appointments are recommended to secure your spot. Walk-ins are welcome when our artists have availability.

How should I prepare for my tattoo session?
Get a good night’s rest, eat a solid meal, and stay hydrated. Avoid alcohol and blood thinners (like aspirin) for 24 hours before your appointment.

Can I bring a friend?
You can bring one guest for support, but please avoid large groups to keep the workspace calm and comfortable.

Does it hurt?
Pain levels vary based on placement and personal tolerance. Most clients describe it as uncomfortable but manageable.

How long will it take?
Small tattoos can take 30–60 minutes, while large or detailed designs may need multiple sessions.

During the tattoo:

Aftercare:

How do I care for my new tattoo?
Keep it clean, avoid soaking in water, and apply a thin layer of aftercare ointment as directed. Your artist will give you detailed instructions before you leave.

What if my tattoo starts peeling or itching?
That’s totally normal! Don’t scratch or pick at it — apply a small amount of unscented moisturizer to relieve itching.
