Tattoo Rates / Prices
Tattoos are priced fairly by the piece and rarely by the hour to ensure I can take my time and make each one of your tattoos as perfect as can be. The more tattoos you get in one session the cheaper each tattoo will be
What do I need to prepare for my tattoo appointment?
Make sure to get a good night's rest and start your day with a big breakfast. This is essential to having the most comfortable tattoo experience. Bring a bottle of water with you and try not to wear white coloured clothes to avoid stains. Candy is provided
What tattoo should I get and where?
(1) Look around on Pinterest for something similar to what you would like and provide it to me as a reference so I can design a brand new tattoo personalised to you around the concept image
(2) Some clients give me past challenges and life experiences they have gone through and ask me to come up with a beautiful tattoo to represent that. This is very common
(3) Have a few elements in mind and want them combine them into a tattoo e.g skull, barbwire, roses, butterflies
(4) Just know where you want the tattoo but not sure what you want. Leave it to me to design a tattoo that perfectly fits in that spot and flows with your body
(5) Completely custom detailed description that I will design a tattoo from and work with you to change until it's perfect
How long will it take?
Tattoos roughly take 2-4 hours each, let me know if you have to leave early but generally please keep the entire day free. You'll definitely want to go home and chill after a tattoo session
Can I bring a friend? Can they get a tattoo with me?
Absolutely you can bring your friend or partner for support or join in on your tattoo adventure and get one as well. Did someone say matching tattoos?
Do you provide numbing products?
Yes numbing spray, which contains natural anaesthetic for a painless tattoo experience. Numbing products do not affect the outcome or healing of your tattoo at all.
The Best Healing Process
Remove the fake skin as soon as you get home and let the tattoo breathe, fake skin is applied to safely transport your tattoo home without exposure to the elements. Oxygen is the best thing for a healing tattoo. When having a shower, run cold water over the tattoo with your hand and avoid soap in that area for a week, dry the tattoo with a clean paper towel after. Apply a thin layer of Bepanthan 3 times a day for the next 2 weeks, morning, after your shower and at night. Your tattoo will flake while it’s healing but underneath a beautiful tattoo will emerge. Avoid scratching, picking at the skin and sun exposure on the tattoo for the next month. Do this and you will have a beautifully healed tattoo for the rest of your life
Will my tattoo fade?
No, I have developed a technique that allows smooth gradients of the shades with just pure blank ink and no addition of grey wash or water down. This maintains a crisp tattoo that looks the same after years as it did the day you got your tattoo.
Hand & Finger tattoos require 1x touch up after the initial appointment to last forever. Touch up appointment is free of charge.
Tattoos and skin are still unpredictable so if any spot does fade, touch up appointments are free
Finger Tattoos (FAQ)
The skin around our fingers and hands heal extremely fast and different to other parts of the body as well as the skin in that area constantly being moved, abused and exposed. This makes tattoos in that area extremely difficult and 99% of tattoo artists will not even attempt the task.
I have formed a skill that very few artists around the world are capable of or have the steady hand and the knowledge to produce miniature tattoos for the fingers and hand tattoos that lasts forever. Finger tattoos can be requested individually or as a whole hand arrangement comprising of up to 15-20 individual tattoos. The technique requires Finger and hand tattoos to undergo two total sessions for finger tattoos that last forever, will never fade and never blowout. 2nd session is free of charge.
UV Tattoos (FAQ)
Glow-in-the-dark tattoos are a great way to put a vibrant spin on traditional ink. Ultra Violet tattoos glow different colours depending on the colour of the ink under a blacklight. This tattooing technique is perfect for any of these three reasons: if you don't want to have an especially visible tattoo; if you want to be the life of the (dimly-lit) party; or if you want to add a bit of pizzaz to a regular tattoo. Modern UV tattoo inks are made with safe ingredients to achieve the glowing effect, glow-in-the-dark tattoos are now considered just as safe as any normal tattoo, said and researched by Dr. Nazarian. UV tattoos are 100% safe, tested and expensively sourced by Alex Zilla.
