Walk-ins are always welcome, but we recommend booking in advance so you don't have to wait.
Yes, we require a deposit (~10–20%) to secure your appointment. The deposit will be deducted from the total cost of your session. If you cancel your appointment or switch to a different idea, the deposit is non-refundable.
The process includes: consultation on your idea and placement → design sketch → revisions based on your feedback → applying the stencil to your skin for final approval → tattooing → cleaning and aftercare instructions.
It depends on the size, level of detail and placement — from about [30 minutes] for small pieces to [several hours or multiple sessions] for large, complex ones. We'll give you a specific time estimate during your consultation.
You can fill out our booking form, or send us a direct message on Instagram or WhatsApp.
The cost may increase if you change the design multiple times or add more details. We will always let you know clearly before making any changes that affect the price.

Yes, clients must be at least [18 years old]. Clients under 18 need the consent of, and must be accompanied by, a parent/legal guardian (subject to local law and studio policy).
We recommend not getting tattooed during pregnancy or while breastfeeding for the safety of both mother and baby. Please wait until the appropriate time and consult your doctor first.
If you have an underlying condition such as diabetes, heart disease, a blood clotting disorder, skin allergies, etc., please let your artist know in advance, and ideally consult your doctor before getting tattooed to ensure your safety.
You should not get tattooed after drinking alcohol or using stimulants, as they thin the blood, causing more bleeding and affecting the result. If you are taking blood thinners or antibiotics, please discuss this with us beforehand.
The level of pain depends on each person's sensitivity and the placement. In general, it feels like a continuous scratching or light pricking sensation, which most people find bearable. Areas with thin skin, close to bone or with many nerve endings — such as the ribs, wrists, feet, spine and elbows — tend to hurt more than areas with more soft tissue, such as the upper arms, thighs and back.
Yes, our team will help you develop your idea into a custom, one-of-a-kind design that reflects your vision and personal story.
Yes, we offer cover-up consultations and work. The result depends on the color, darkness and size of the old tattoo — your artist will advise on the best design to cover it effectively.

Refunds are only given in cases where the error is the artist's fault.
Keep the area clean, apply a specialized aftercare cream as instructed, avoid touching the tattoo with dirty hands, wear loose clothing to prevent rubbing, and don't pick at the scabs.
The skin surface usually heals within [2–3 weeks], but it can take up to [4–6 weeks] for the deeper layers of skin to fully recover.
No. You should avoid soaking in water (sea, swimming pools), direct sun exposure and activities that make you sweat heavily for at least the first [2–4 weeks] so your tattoo heals well and the colors settle nicely.
