Question 1

Do I see the design beforehand?

Accepted Answer

The design will be ready to see on the day of your appointments and will be drawn to the specifications you give me! If there’s any small changes you would like to make I can do this on the day. If you have any big changes please make me aware beforehand!

Question 2

Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You’re welcome to bring someone along with you to your appointment, although my room is only small so one person max is recommended unless discussed.

Question 3

Will you tell me my aftercare?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Everybody goes away with a full aftercare sheet covering all aftercare details for your tattoo.

Question 4

What should I do to prepare before my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Try and get a good nights sleep before your appointment!

Eat & drink a meal (breakfast or lunch) before hand and come hydrated and prepared with drinks & snacks.

Wear comfortable accessible clothing suitable for the area you are having tattooed.

Come clean & showered before your appointment.

It’s also handy if you moisturise the area beforehand in the run up to your appointments (but don't worry if you forget!)

Question 5

Should I come to my appointment if I’m unwell?

Accepted Answer

In short, it’s best to rearrange if you are poorly for your appointment.

Getting tattooed puts a strain on your immune system so being in good health is important to heal properly!

If you are feeling unwell, or are on antibiotics for anything, please reach out and I will try my best to rearrange you!

Question 6

Are you wheelchair accessible?

Accepted Answer

Yes! My main private room is upstairs, but I can work downstairs in the main studio if you have any access needs.

Please note the toilet for customers is up one flight of stairs and unfortunately due to the old building we do not have a downstairs accessible toilet.

Question 7

Do you have a private room?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I work in a private space so you dont need to worry about being in the room with other clients.

If you have access needs I will need to work downstairs though and I work downstairs for all Flash & Event days.

Question 8

It’s my first tattoo… help!

Accepted Answer

Don’t worry! I am totally used to doing first tattoos and am happy to take my time and help you feels comfortable. 
I can & will explain each step along the way. It may be helpful to watch some of my day in the life of videos on social media to familiarise yourself with the process!

Question 9

Will I be on Tik Tok/ Social media?

Accepted Answer

If you’re booking with me you probably know I film most of my days at work but I never show peoples faces unless I ask express permission!

My consent form includes a section about social media and if you would prefer not to be in a video that is absolutely fine.

Please note - being in a video is not 100% guaranteed although I do my best to film most of my days!

Question 10

How long will my tattoo take?

Accepted Answer
