Walk-ins are welcome when an artist has availability. Calling or texting before you arrive is the best way to confirm same-day openings.
Deposit requirements and policies are set by the artist handling your appointment. Your artist will explain the amount, accepted payment method, and rescheduling terms before your session is confirmed.
Include your idea, placement, approximate size, preferred style, color or black-and-gray preference, availability, and any useful reference images. The clearer the starting point, the more focused the consultation can be.
Yes. References are useful for direction, but the final design should be custom to you. Your artist will discuss composition, placement, scale, and details that help the piece work on the body.
Sleep well, eat a full meal, hydrate, and avoid alcohol before your session. Wear comfortable clothing that gives the artist easy access to the placement area.
Ask your artist before the appointment. Space, privacy, and the type of session may affect whether a guest can stay with you.
Follow the exact instructions provided by your artist. Keep the area clean, avoid picking or scratching, limit soaking and direct sun, and contact your artist if you have questions during healing.
Healing timelines vary. Avoid pools, hot tubs, open water, and activities that heavily irritate or stretch the area until your artist confirms it is safe.
