Some tips and suggestions to get you ready for your tattoo journey!
Before your appointment
-
Minimize sun exposure. Sun damage to skin will effect your tattoo, and sunburns will result in reschedules.
-
Moisturize daily and drink water.
-
Exfoliate the area getting tattooed. Dry skin can shed and get stuck in the tube of a needle cartridge, effecting ink flow and slowing the process. Dry skin can also result in poor healing.
Things to bring!
-
Water or your favorite drinks! We do have a selection available at the studio as well, such as a coffee bar, mini sodas, water, and apple juice!
-
In the week leading up to your appointment, please avoid alcohol and a lot of caffeine.
Snacks!
-
Our studio has a variety of snacks available, but you can bring your favorite snacks too!

There are a lot of good food places around our studio and a number of coffee/boba places nearby as well if you wanted to pick something up before your appointment! All within walking distance.
