Preparing for your tattoo
Aftercare
Tattoo appointments are strictly for clients aged 18 or over. If you are under 25, please bring valid photographic ID
to your appointment. If suitable proof of age cannot be provided when requested, I will not be able to tattoo you.Please arrive on time and not under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.If you're feeling unwell, have an infection, or there has been a change in your health or medication before your
appointment, please contact me as soon as possible.For health and safety reasons, I do not tattoo clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.No under-18s are permitted in the treatment room while tattooing is taking place.All enquiry, health and consent information must be completed accurately and honestly.If you would feel more comfortable bringing someone with you, one guest is welcome. Please let me know
beforehand as space is limited.I prefer to tattoo untreated skin and generally recommend avoiding numbing cream. If you are considering using a
numbing product, please discuss this with me beforehand.
Before your appointment, you will be asked to complete a confidential health check.Please disclose any medical conditions, allergies, medications or recent changes to your health that could affect tattooing or healing.Answering yes to a health question does not necessarily mean you cannot be tattooed. I may simply need some additional information before confirming that it is appropriate to proceed.If anything changes after completing your health check, please let me know before your appointment.
A non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your appointment.Your booking fee is deducted from the final cost of your tattoo. It also allows me to begin the design process for your tattoo.When you choose an available appointment, I will provisionally hold the date for 48 hours.Your appointment is not confirmed until the booking fee has been received.If payment is not received within the 48-hour hold period, the date may be offered to another client.Appointments are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you need to reschedule, please give me at least 48 hours' notice.With at least 48 hours' notice, your booking fee may be transferred once to a new appointment date.Cancellations, missed appointments, no-shows or rescheduling with less than 48 hours' notice will result in the loss of your booking fee.A new booking fee will be required to secure another appointment.Booking fees are non-refundable.
Unless you are booking an existing flash design, your tattoo will be individually created for you.Your booking includes up to two small revisions, such as minor adjustments to layout or detail.A significant change to the original concept, placement, size or style may require additional design time, an additional charge or a new appointment date.Any additional cost will always be discussed with you before further work is carried out.Designs are usually shared within the week leading up to your appointment.Your final design, size and placement will be checked and agreed with you before tattooing begins.
You will be provided with written aftercare guidance following your appointment.Please follow this carefully, as appropriate aftercare plays an important part in how your tattoo heals.Every person's skin and healing process is different. Fine-line tattoos will naturally soften and settle as they heal and age.If you have any concerns about your tattoo during healing, please get in touch.
Yes. You're welcome to bring one guest if it helps you feel more comfortable. As spaceis limited, I just ask that you let me know beforehand. No children are permitted in the tattoo area.
