Pricing

How long does it take to get an appointment?

i do all of my bookings two months at a time, it’s always best to write me a month before you want to get tattooed! you will always find my booking period at the top of this page! If i have spontaneous cancellations or space i always post about it on my instagram story / channel.

my focus is definitely creating classic traditional designs, any of my designs that i upload are available to be tattooed! if more than one person is interested in the same design — that’s totally fine! i would be more than happy to alter the design or create a different version, so each piece is one of a kind and truly yours.

for custom work, i really love exploring the ideas that you have and doing my best to make your vision come to life - be sure to follow my booking guide so that all information and details are included in your request for a custom design!

Flash or Custom?

Where should i look for tattoo inspiration?

if you are deciding what to get for a tattoo i have tons of flash books available to flip through, you can also find a digital flash book of my work on my instagram!

another great source is the internet + social media, a few of my favourite sources for tattoo ideas or placement is Rambo’s Tattoo Museum and The Sea Hag

i really love referencing traditional legends like Ben Corday, Percy Waters, Bert Grimm, Tom Berg, George Burchett, and Christian Warlich - you can find a lot of classic artists from The Tattoo Archive

How should i prepare for my appointment?

step 1: make sure to get a really good nights rest prior to the appointment day!

step 2: have a nourishing meal before your appointment! this makes such a difference!

step 3: pack a comfy outfit to switch into that accommodates where the tattoo is going. pack a water bottle and sugary snacks to keep your body fuelled and happy as we work.

if you follow these steps, you're all set for your appointment! being comfortable and nourished for your appointment is super important and keeps you feeling healthy!
