WHAT IS A CONSULTATION? HOW DO I GET ONE?

  • Consultations are typically booked as an opportunity for the client to discuss their design with an artist. During the consultation the artist can give the client a rough estimate of time and cost.

  • You can start the process by using our contact form once you have finished reading the info page.

DO I NEED TO LEAVE A DEPOSIT?

  • We require a non-refundable deposit of $100, $200, or $300 to secure any tattoo appointments. The deposit price is based on how many appointments need to be booked, as well as the size of the piece.

  • Deposits are 100% non refundable. There are no exceptions.

CAN I SEE A DRAWING OF MY TATTOO BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?

  • We have a strict policy that we are unable to send advance drawings of our artists designs prior to any tattoo appointment date.

  • If you aren’t 100% confident that you and your artist are on the same page let us know and another consultation can be booked to further discuss the project.

DO YOU DO HAND/NECK/FACE TATTOOS?

  • We have a strict, non-negotiable policy not to do hand or finger tattoos unless the person is already visibly/heavily tattooed (i.e. having full sleeves, full leg pieces, a chest piece, etc). Most reputable studios will have a similar policy.

  • Our policy is to avoid tattooing hands and other more visible areas (neck and face) until you have greater tattoo coverage in an effort to prevent our clients from limiting any future opportunities.

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY APPOINTMENT?

  • Please do not thread, wax or tweeze your eyebrows prior to your procedure; the more hair you have the better!

  • It is recommended to stay out of the sun two weeks prior and two weeks after your procedure. Microblading should not be performed on tanned or sun burned skin.

  • Avoid alcohol or caffeine the day before and day of the procedure, this will minimize any oozing/bleeding or swelling after the procedure.

  • Do not take aspirin, fish oil, Niacin, Vitamin E or ibuprofen (Advil) unless medically necessary 48-72 hours prior to your procedure. Tylenol is fine.

  • Please eat before your procedure and stay hydrated. If you are prone to fainting or light headedness, please inform the artist ahead of time so that necessary precautions may be made.

  • If Botox is used, it should be done three weeks prior to the procedure or three weeks after the procedure.

  • Avoid chemical peels 60 days prior as well as 60 days after the procedure (avoiding the forehead is recommended).

  • If you do frequent peels and use Retinols/Retin-A's, other anti-aging creams or serums containing acids please note that this can fade your permanent makeup prematurely.

WHAT OTHER FACTORS CAN AFFECT MY PROCEDURE?

  • Smoking can cause the pigment to fade prematurely and anesthetics will not last as long.

  • Getting the procedure while on your menstrual cycle may make you hyper-sensitive at the procedure site.
