Thank you for your interest in my work!
I’ve included as much information as possible on this site, if you have any additional questions please email the shop!

General Info

I open and close my schedule based on my current work load. I typically don’t have a set time for when I take new appointments, it just happens once my schedule has lightened up. For the time being Instagram is the only place for updates regarding my bookings!

I use a submission form for all requests, which can be found on this website when my books are open. If you can’t find the form it means I’m not taking new appointments!

I choose projects based on what currently interests and excites me, which I’ve listed below. Unfortunately because of the amount of requests that come in, I’m not able to tattoo everyone. It can be frustrating to wait and not get an appointment, but I try my best to accommodate as many clients as possible in the limited time I have - I appreciate your patience and understanding with this!

I do all of my own scheduling, communication, and admin work. Sometimes it can take a bit to get back to everyone - apologies in advance!

Moving forward I will be focusing more on colour tattoos, but if you are interested in getting a black and grey piece, don’t be afraid to submit a request! If something isn’t listed below it doesn’t mean I’m not interested, so again, please submit when my books are open!

Subjects I’m currently prioritizing:

- Faces and figures (bonus if it’s larger scale like a sleeve or back piece)
- Florals with art nouveau elements
- Sleeves with one type of flower (peonies or roses specifically)
- More back pieces and sleeves in general
- Mythical creatures
- Skulls with other elements (florals, hoods, snakes, etc)
- Ornamental designs
- Large birds
- Large cats (except Lions, sorry fellow Leos)
- Antiques, jewels, etc.
- Ideas with interesting placement

Your Idea and Tattoo Design

When submitting a request, please make sure to include as much information as possible about your idea. If you are unsure about what you want, it’s best to think on it a bit longer. I’m always happy to run with a basic concept as long as you have something for me to go off, “do whatever you want” is unfortunately not an idea I can work with!

As for references, you can send anything you think will help me visualize your idea. Paintings, a bus stop ad, the wallpaper in your nan’s house - anything! You can also send tattoos as reference, but keep in mind you will be getting a completely different outcome with your finished tattoo. Feel free to send a doodle to explain composition or placement on the body, it really helps me!

Designs are usually only seen the day of your appointment. If you plan on sending references or want to change something about the idea, I will require that information no less than a week before your appointment. I won’t chase people, so it’s up to you to send me your stuff! I always leave time to make minor adjustments to the design when you come in for your tattoo, any major design changes could result in rescheduling, so please make sure you let me know everything initially.

I can do consultations over email, but if you prefer to come in and chat about your idea, please let me know! If I feel we need to chat in person, I may request you visit to the shop.

When submitting, please avoid any long stories or traumatic descriptions. I have to read through a lot of submissions, so the more to-the-point of what you want, the better!

Schedule and Pricing

My schedule is Tuesday - Friday with appointments beginning at 11am. If the tattoo is palm sized or smaller, I can usually start as late as 3pm (I have needy dogs and try to get home at a decent hour). Unfortunately because of the demand for Saturdays, they are completely booked for the foreseeable future. If one does open up, I will post it on my Instagram story!

Rates:

Hourly rate - $200 +tax
Minimum (1 hour or less) - $200 +tax
Half day appointment (3~ hours) - $550 +tax
Full day appointment (6~ hours ) - $1000 +tax

If you have a budget please let me know, I am happy to try and work within it. I can always give a quote, but keep in mind your tattoo could take more or less time than what was quoted!

Cash is preferred, but I also take debit and credit. There is a processing fee for all card payments.

Large Scale Work

Large scale tattoos include sleeves, back pieces, or anything that takes multiple sessions to complete. When looking to start large scale tattoos, it’s important to consider the amount of time and money it will require. Depending on the complexity, these tattoos can take anywhere from 5-10 sessions, so it’s best to ensure you are 100% ready to begin this journey before inquiring.

For Your Appointment

Before your appointment:
Ensure you get plenty of rest, eat a big breakfast, and do not consume alcohol the night before your appointment. Stay hydrated, moisturize, and please shower and avoid wearing heavily scented perfumes when you arrive at the shop. If you have any allergies or sensitivities please let me know ahead of time! Parking can be a bit of a pain depending on the day, so please make sure to leave enough time to grab a spot on one of the side streets!

During your appointment:
Please do not bring friends, family, or guests to your appointment. You must be 18 or older to enter the shop, so absolutely no children are permitted. Because of the intensity of certain spots, I prefer not to chat while tattooing chests, backs, or torsos, so headphones are recommended for these areas. If you’d like to wear headphones regardless of the area, I will not be offended in the slightest! I’m always happy to chat, or not, just let me know what you prefer.

Please dress appropriately for the area being tattooed. Shorts for legs, tank tops for upper arms. For backs, a button down flannel or zip up sweater worn backwards works wonders. We can provide nipple covers and privacy screens at the shop.

We have water, juice, and snacks on hand, but you are always welcome to bring your own stuff.

Deposits and Rescheduling

A deposit is required for every appointment and nothing is confirmed until I have received one.
You can review the shop deposit policy here.

$50 +tax - Most flash pieces
$100 +tax - Custom pieces
$200 +tax - Sleeves and back pieces

The deposit will come off the final cost of your tattoo. I allow one reschedule per appointment with at least 48 hours notice, if you need to reschedule again for any reason you will be charged a rebooking fee. Please do not call the shop to try and reschedule, and please do not leave a voicemail message as I may not hear it for a few days. E-mail is the only form of communication I use for booking, rebooking, etc. No shows will not be rebooked.

Please respect my boundaries and policies!
