Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do you accept custom requests?
I do! I love doing color, painterly style, illustrative style, ignorant style, text, ornamental, and more. I would love to hear your ideas! Please submit your request through Venue.
What matters most to me is that you love your design, so please also feel free to reach out about using a pre-drawn piece as a jumping off point for something more personal. Always happy to add color and/or shading to pre-drawn outlines!
I will not tattoo any hateful imagery, anything beyond my skill level, or designs created by another artist without proven permission. I do not tattoo genitals or faces.
-
How much will my tattoo cost?
My current rate is $50/hour for custom designs. I will do my best to estimate the cost based on size/placement, but the amount of time tattoos take is dependent on many factors. (It is important to show up hydrated and moisturized!) Pre-drawn designs are available at a flat rate depending on the size and placement, beginning at $50.
Cash preferred, Venmo/Paypal also accepted. Tips are appreciated but not expected.
A percentage of your final cost will be paid as a deposit to secure your appointment time. This amount will go towards the cost of your tattoo (for multiple sessions, it will go toward the last session’s cost). Deposits are non-refundable.

Please be sure to bring your ID! Expired ID’s will not be accepted.
You may want stim toys, a pillow, a blanket, and headphones. If you’d like to stream any media during your tattoo, you may wish to download them beforehand as there is no wifi at the studio. I do have an iPad that can stream YouTube, Netflix, and Dropout!
You can bring a friend for company and support. It is a small studio space, so please limit guests to two maximum. Please reach out to discuss bringing your licensed service animal if they will be needed.
