“Find what fits you, you don’t need to fit what you find”

My Promise to You

  • It’s okay to have a feeling of nervousness, anxiety and excitement
  • I completely understand that coming into a new space is scary
  • You need to know that with me you are safe and secure
  • There is no judgement in this studio, my job is to put magic on your body
I'm Thinking Of Getting My First Tattoo

I understand that coming to a tattoo appointment is a new experience so it can be anxiety inducing, that is completely fine and I am here to support you through this process.

✨ What You Need to Know ✨

  • Feeling nervous is completely normal for first-time clients ☽
  • I’m here to guide you through each step of the process
  • You’ll be in control of your design choices
  • The experience is meant to be positive and memorable

If you have any worries about the design or actual tattoo procedure, have a good look through What To Expect At An Appointment.

How To Prepare For An Appointment

It is preferred if you come unaccompanied to respect the privacy of other clients.

Do’s

  • Do wash off any fake tan - affects tattoo absorption
  • Do exfoliate up to a few days before - improves tattoo absorption
  • Do eat well beforehand - prevents fainting
  • Do get a good night’s sleep - prevents fatigue and helps your experience

Don’ts

  • Don’t shave the area - we will do that properly at the studio
  • Don’t be hungover - alcohol thins blood and can affect tattooing
