Can I use numbing cream?

I’d always prefer clients not to use numbing cream as I’ve seen some bad reactions and bad healing when it’s been used. If you’re gonna use it then please do a test patch at least 24 hours before and the tattoo may need a touch up when healed. I usually offer touch ups for free up-to 3 months after but you will have to pay for a touch up if numbing cream is used

Can I bring someone to my appointment with me?

Yes of course, my room is big enough for a couple of people if you feel more comfortable bringing someone along!

Should I bring snacks/drinks?

Always! Especially if you’re in for a half day/full day I would recommend bringing some lunch with you. Don’t worry cuppas are on me😌

Always wear something dark (ink/stencil can stain clothes) and think about the area you’re getting tattooed being accessible to me. For example, getting a sternum tattoo I would recommend a cardigan/zip up hoodie that you can leave open. Same with a spine, but wear the cardigan/jacket backwards.
