Design
Helvetica Light is an easy-to-read font, with tall and narrow letters, that works well on almost every site.
-
Describe your tattoo idea in full detail (including the size in centimeters) and the location on your body where you would like the tattoo.
-
Email me 3-5 images that you would like to use for reference. These images are important because they allow me to visualize and design the tattoo properly.
-
If possible ask someone to take a picture of the location on your body where you would like to get tattooed and send it to me as well.
-
I will not copy other artists’ designs.
-
Usually at the beginning of your appointment we will discuss and finalize your tattoo design together.
-
For larger or more complex projects you may need to come to the studio for a consultation.
-
I won’t send out designs prior to the session. We will have time to tweak minor things on the day of your appointment.
-
As all tattoo projects are different, they take different amounts of time and effort to get done. If I have all the information and pictures I’ll get back to you with the estimated cost.
Booking an appointment
-
My working hours are from Monday to Friday, from 11:00 to 18:00. I don't work on weekends and public holidays.
-
Generally, smaller/medium-sized tattoos don't take up a whole day, so appointments can start at 11:00 or 15:00. Of course, in certain cases, this can vary, it's not set in stone.
-
If there are days when you definitely won't be available (due to work, university, etc.), please let me know in advance so we can save time.
-
For women, it's important to consider that it's not recommended to get tattooed during their period. And it's prohibited during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
-
I will finalize your appointment after receiving the deposit.
Deposit
-
The deposit is non-refundable and its amount depends on the specific project.
-
The deposit reserves all your booking dates and will be applied to the final tattoo session if the project requires multiple sessions. If it is a single session, it will be applied to that instead.
-
The deposit can be paid via Revolut, bank transfer, or in cash at the studio at a pre-arranged time.
-
If you need to change the date of your appointment due to unforeseen circumstances, you must let me know at least 72 hours prior to the session. A new deposit will be required to continue working together if you cancel or reschedule with less than 72 hours notice.
-
You can reschedule your appointment only once without losing your deposit.
Preparations
-
Make sure to be well-rested before coming into the appointment and eat a meal beforehand.
-
It's worth moisturizing the area with body lotion in the week leading up to the session.
-
Avoid sunburn, as it can make tattooing impossible.
-
Do not consume alcohol 24 hours before getting tattooed!
-
Please do not take any painkillers! Tattooing is not a pleasant sensation, but various medications can hinder the process and healing.

If you feel unwell please stay at home.
-
If this is your first tattoo, don't worry, don't stress about it!
