I only do tattoos that align with my style. I have a deep love for American Traditional but anything with thick lines and dark shading is my go to. If you aren't sure if your idea matches up with my style, feel free to reach out or take a look at my flash page for reference.
I do not do cover ups!
-
I charge on a flat rate basis with a minimum rate of $200. The end price is dependant on size, colouration, level of detail, and location of the piece.
Alternatively, when booking larger scale pieces, like the back, I charge a day rate of $800. If you are looking into booking a larger scale piece, please reach out to me via Instagram or email for more info!
All bookings require a minimum $100 deposit.

I do not take walk-ins. All bookings are done in advance via my website.
With that being said, keep your eyes on Instagram for potential flash days.

The night before your tattoo, try to avoid drinking as alcohol can increase bleeding up to 24 hours, can dilute pigment, affect the appearance of your tattoo, and prolong the healing process. Get a good night's rest:).
Before your appointment, have a decent meal and hydrate! It is also a good idea to pack a sugary snack or drink in case you start to feel sick or dizzy.
Make sure you wear or bring clothing to your appointment that can easily reveal the area being tattooed. Tattoos on places like the torso or ribs may require you to be shirtless. If this makes you uncomfy, consider bringing a button down shirt or crop top that can easily expose the area.
-
Depending on the extent of work done, tattoos can take anywhere between 2-4 weeks to fully heal. With this being said, it takes months for the skin to fully regenerate. You can find more extensive after care information here.
-
You must be 18 years of age at the time of your appointment date. I do not make any exceptions to this rule even if you have parental consent. You must show a valid ID at the time of your appointment.
-
When it comes to booking your tattoo, I take payment on my website for both flash and custom pieces. At your appointment, I accept E-transfer or cash to pay for the remainder of your appointment.

Tipping is never required but appreciated! We recommend tipping like you would any other service professional.

When having a reaction of any kind, immediately remove the bandage and wash the area with unscented soap. No matter the degree of reaction, please reach out to me via email for any questions or concerns. Seek medical attention immediately if your symptoms seem serious.
Reactions may be caused by certain types of coloured ink or the adhesive on your second skin bandage. Unfortunately there is no way for me to predict how each client's skin will react.
