Rules and regulations, the short version.

Fill out the inquiry form
  1. The minimum is per person, per session

    Two or three small pieces fit in one session for a little more than one. Tell me your budget and I will design to it.

  2. A deposit holds your date

    Zelle or Venmo, once we agree a date. It comes off the price. Deposits are not refundable.

  3. Moving your date

    Tell me at least 72 hours ahead and your deposit moves with you, once.

  4. 18 or older

    California law, no exceptions, even with a parent.

  5. Cash is preferred

    Zelle and Venmo work too. There is no card reader.

  6. You can bring one or two people

    The rooms are small, and guests sit in the waiting area, not at the station.

  7. Placement

    On flash days I keep to arms and legs because the day is tight. On any other day I tattoo ribs, backs, hips, hands, feet and behind the ear too, and I will tell you honestly how each placement heals.

  8. The first touch up is free

    Once the tattoo has healed, at least five weeks after. Send me a photo first.

These come up a lot.

Anything else?

Write to me whichever way is easiest. All three reach me.
