Yes, a tattoo can hurt, and it is completely okay to ask about that beforehand. How it feels depends on the spot, your skin, and also on the kind of day you are having. Some areas are more intense, others are easier, and it is a little different for everyone. If it gets too much, we simply take a break. Just tell me. You do not have to push through, and you are not alone in that.

I do not have one price for every tattoo, because size, placement and how detailed the design is all change the work involved. That can feel vague at first, so after your request I will give you a clear estimate before we lock a date. That way you can decide with a calm mind and nothing has to stay unclear.

You send me a request with your idea first, even if it is not finished yet. Then we sort out the design, size and date at a pace that feels good for you. On the day you check in, we look at the design together again and only start when you feel ready. Afterwards I give you the aftercare info. The important parts live on tatme, so nothing gets lost and you can always see where you stand.

It helps most if you arrive rested, have eaten something and drunk enough water. Please skip alcohol and strong painkillers beforehand, that makes the day kinder on your skin and on you. Wear clothes I can work around easily, so we do not have to fiddle with changing. If you feel unsure or you take medication, just write me first. Then we can look at it together, without you having to feel awkward about it.

Yes, you can still reach out. You do not need a finished design to take the first step. A lot of people come with a direction, a placement or simply a feeling, and that is more than enough. We shape it together until it feels right for you. Tell me where you are right now. We will sort the rest in conversation, with no pressure.

Hygiene is not optional for me, because you are trusting me with your body. I work with sterile single-use material and keep my station deliberately clean. Needles, ink cups and covers come new out of the packaging, and if you have questions about that you can ask anytime, beforehand or on the day. I want the studio to feel safe, and for you to feel looked after.

For confirmed appointments I work with a deposit, so the slot really stays reserved for you and we can both plan with ease. You will see the amount and the steps clearly in your booking on tatme, nothing has to get lost in long chat threads. Once the deposit is in, the appointment is set, and you know exactly where you stand.

After healing, a spot can look a little paler or uneven, and that is not unusual. Your skin needs time, and it is allowed to have that. If something catches your eye, just write me and send a photo. Then we look together whether a touch-up makes sense and how we can do that for you. You do not have to judge it on your own.

Tipping is never required with me, and it is not a quiet expectation either. If you are happy and want to leave something, I genuinely appreciate it. It is a gesture, not something you need to prepare for. Your feedback and that you felt comfortable with me matter just as much.

I use tatme so requests and bookings stay simple and clear for both of us. Your request, our messages and the appointment details live in one place, nothing gets lost, and you can always see where your appointment stands. That way we do not have to go back and forth on Instagram or WhatsApp, and I have more time to actually tattoo. If that feels unfamiliar, that is okay. It is simply the calmer way for both of us.
