BOOKING INFO (scroll down for submission form, but please also read all this info I know it’s a lot but it’s very important stuff):
I prefer to book via this webpage. Please use the submission form below!
*Due to the fact that I am immunocompromised, I often mask during appointments. Ideally, clients will avoid large gatherings near their appointment date as to avoid exposing me to illness. PLEASE let me know if you’re sick so we can reschedule.
Guest policy: Let me know if you plan on bringing someone! I personally prefer working one on one with my clients but one guest is fine! Also, if you or your guest are sick or have ANY symptoms, let me know ASAP as I will hang on to your deposit and get you rescheduled.
Pricing: $200/hr with a minimum of $150.
Deposits are $100, are required to book with me, go toward the cost of the tattoo and are nonrefundable if you cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled date/time, don’t show up to your appointment, or are over 20 minutes late.
I have an awesome assistant named Ash (she/her) who helps me with submissions off and on when I’m overwhelmed. Be nice to Ash, she’s the reason why I’m still sane!
Phone or in person consultations are on an “as needed” basis, so please mention in booking for if you’d like to schedule one.
OTHER IMPORTANT THINGS:
I do NOT do copies of other artists’ work unless you purchase a “tattoo ticket” or have explicit permission to get their work tattooed. References are used to give me an idea of the stylistic direction you’d like in your piece and/or the placement you’re interested in. I love when clients send mock-ups, reference photos, etc, as I am a very visual learner.
I won’t be able to tattoo every client who submits their requests. Sometimes things just might not click or work out perfectly and that’s ok!
I’m prioritizing people who ask for projects in my woodcut/linework style and allow creativity on my end. Ultimately, this is a collaboration but please keep in mind my creative constraints and personal art style.
If you’d like to book flash (pre-drawn designs) just mention it in the form below! Flash pieces are usually done at special or flat rates.
Phew! Thanks for reading. Hope to hear from you soon!
