FAQ

Q- How do I book with you?

A: Use the booking form buttons on my home page. Pick either the custom or flash booking form according to what you want! I usually reply within a week. Once I review your request I will send you a link to select a date and time for your appointment and submit your deposit.

Please check your spam for booking form replies!

Please refrain from messaging me directly on Instagram if you can! I only like to use the direct message feature for last minute booking communications when I have cancellations. Otherwise it is likely I will not see your message.

Q- What is your cancellation policy?

A: I require at least 24 hours notice to reschedule appointments. Please let me know as soon as possible if you can’t make your appointment.

Your deposit will be applied to your rescheduled appointment with proper notice, it will not be refunded if you decide to cancel altogether.

Deposits are non-refundable for cancellations!

Note: Occasionally there are exceptions depending on the circumstances, but the majority of the time this is a hard boundary I need to have in place.

Q- What is your lateness policy?

If you are more than 20 minutes late I may need to reschedule our appointment.

To respect my time and the time of my other clients please do your best to be on time, because this can affect my appointments for the rest of the day.

It is okay to be a bit early if the helps with time management for you!

Q- Will you tattoo a design by another artist?

A: I will not reproduce another artist’s work unless you can provide proof of explicit permission from the artist. In this case I generally only tattoo designs adjacent to my style and I may ask if I can make adjustments to make things more tattoo-able for me.

I do not feel comfortable with other artists tattooing my designs.

Q- How does your process work for custom designs?

A: First, submit a booking form through my link on this website.

Then, I will send a follow up email to get more details on your concept. Occasionally, I will request we do an in person consultation if I think this is needed.

Next, we will schedule a date for the appointment. To hold an appointment you need to submit a $50 deposit and a $50 drawing fee. The deposit is subtracted from the total cost of the appointment on the day of the tattoo. The drawing fee is a separate cost to compensate me for time spent designing your unique piece!

I will send out a finished draft of your design 1-2 days before your appointment over email. This is so we have extra time to make a round of edits before the day of the appointment.

More notes on custom requests:

I will give preference to requests in my style and will likely reject requests that are not in styles I want to pursue/ that I’m not comfortable with.

Imagery I enjoy includes: surreal imagery, people, animals, plant life, trinkets ( vintage objects, objects with personal meaning), abstract/ ornamental designs, and mythical creatures. I like drawing inspiration from etchings, woodblock prints, art deco, medieval art, and sculpture.

I encourage the spirit of collaboration that comes along with custom pieces and I will also be clear and firm about my boundaries/policies throughout the process.

If it seems our visions are not aligning I may suggest you reach out to another artist and I am happy to give recommendations.

I encourage honest feedback throughout the design process, but please be kind. This should go without saying, but if I feel that you are disrespectful during our consultations when I enforce my policies and boundaries, I will cancel our appointment and suggest you find another artist.

Q- Is there anything you won’t tattoo?

A- Yes!

At this time I am not tattooing faces, necks, heads, or ears.

I limit the number of stomach, rib, and chest pieces I take on.
