How does the process work?
1. Contact
Fill out our online form, and a member of our team will reach out to you to begin the process.
2. Consultation
Once your tattoo session is booked, you’ll receive a complimentary 15-minute online consultation. This is the perfect opportunity to finalize your concept, placement, and details, ensuring your tattoo reflects exactly what you envision.
3. Design
Your tattoo design will be prepared either on the day of your session or, if completed in advance, presented during your appointment for final adjustments. Please arrive prepared, as the beginning of your session will be dedicated to refining the design and creating the stencil, ensuring everything is perfect before tattooing begins.
4. Tattoo session
With the design finalized, your tattoo will be created in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment, allowing you to relax and enjoy the experience.
