APPOINTMENT INFO

ARTWORK

  • MOST TATTOOS DO NOT REQUIRE A CONSULTATION
    I MAY REQUEST THAT WE SET UP A VIRTUAL OR IN PERSON CONSULTATION IF YOU’RE WANTING LARGE SCALE WORK (I.E., SLEEVE WORK, BACK OR CHEST PIECES)

  • I DO NOT PROVIDE ARTWORK PRIOR TO YOUR APPOINTMENT

  • KEWPIE TATTOOS ARE NOT SMALL
    CUSTOM KEWPIES, WITH ALL THE BELLS + WHISTLES, ARE ROUGHLY 5”-6” TALL.
    I’LL NEED AN UNOBSTRUCTED AREA ABOUT THE SIZE OF A DOLLAR BILL.

IF YOUR TATTOO NEEDS TO FIT BETWEEN EXISTING WORK,
YOU’LL BE ASKED TO PROVIDE A PHOTO OF THE SPACE

  • IT’S BEST TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE TAKE THE PHOTO FROM EYE LEVEL

  • IF YOU HAVE TO TAKE A “SELFIE”, PLEASE TELL ME SO I CAN FLIP THE PHOTO BEFORE DRAWING.

  • STAND STRAIGHT BUT RELAXED + DO NOT TWIST OR TURN YOUR LIMBS

  • MY ASSISTANT + I ARE HAPPY TO WALK YOU THROUGH THIS IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS

I.D. REQUIREMENTS

PLEASE BRING A VALID STATE I.D., DRIVERS LICENSE, PASSPORT OR MILITARY I.D.
PHOTOCOPIES OR EXPIRED VERSIONS OF ANY OF THESE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED

HELPFUL TIPS FOR SMOOTH SAILING THROUGH YOUR APPOINTMENT:

  • PLEASE RESCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT IF:

    • YOU ARE NOT FEELING WELL

    • WERE SICK WITHIN THE PAST 48 HOURS LEADING UP TO YOUR APPOINTMENT

    • IF YOU WERE KNOWINGLY EXPOSED TO SOMEONE THAT WAS CONTAGIOUS

    • IF YOU HAVE REALLY, REALLY BAD “ALLERGIES” 🙄

  • EAT!
    PLEASE EAT A SOLID MEAL ABOUT AN HOUR PRIOR TO GETTING TATTOOED.
    ALSO, PLEASE BRING A DRINK OR DRINK BOTTLE + A SMALL SNACK WITH YOU IF YOU HAVE A LONGER SESSION.

  • PLEASE WEAR OR BRING APPROPRIATE COMFY CLOTHING
    SOMETHING THAT ALLOWS FULL & UNRESTRICTED ACCESS TO THE AREA YOU'RE HAVING TATTOOED

  • FOR THE BEST EXPERIENCE, PLEASE AVOID ALCOHOL &/OR RECREATIONAL DRUGS
    I WILL NOT TATTOO YOU IF YOU'RE DRUNK, HUNGOVER OR JUST PLAIN UNFIT TO SIT STILL + GET A TATTOO

  • PLEASE DO NOT WORK OUT IMMEDIATELY BEFORE YOUR TATTOO OR WITHIN 24 HOURS AFTER
    GIVE YOURSELF + THE TATTOO A REST + A GREAT JUMP START IN TO THE HEALING PROCESS.
