Please read through this information before you submit a form, and only do so if you're looking to get tattooed within the next 1 - 2 months.

 

This is only a preliminary consultation, and doesn’t guarantee a tattoo appointment. I’ll respond to accepted forms with an estimated quote of sessions, instructions for paying the deposit, and booking. I may also suggest clients come in for an additional free in-person consultation after reviewing you proposal.

 

rates & schedule:

• I tattoo Tuesdays–Fridays, starting at noon.

• Half-day of tattooing (up to 3 hours): $650 flat.

• Full-day of tattooing (4–5 hours): $1100 flat.

• Multiple sessions may be required for some designs, spaced at least 4 weeks apart. This gap can be longer to accommodate budgeting and personal/work schedules.

 

deposits:

• $200 for projects estimated at ½ day up to 2½ days.

• $500 for projects estimated at 3 or more full-day sessions.

 

style & subject matter:

• I work only in my aesthetics, and with black & greywash inks.

• Reference images are welcome as inspiration or placement guides. I will not directly copy other artists’ work — please familiarize yourself with my work.

• My designs are heavily influenced by zoological and botanical subjects, ukiyo-e florals, and other Asian nature-themed artwork. I may accept other ideas if I think they will suit my style.

• Some pieces include freehand elements, so a complete stencil won't always be provided.

​

cover-ups:

• Not all cover-ups will be possible. The better candidates will be very faded or have tiny/dainty script/linework.

• Cover-ups must be larger and darker than what they are covering.

• I am very particular about what cover-ups I can confidently take on; therefore, not all cover-up proposals will be accepted. 

 

what I usually won’t do:

• Reworking tattoos — I often suggest laser removal as a first option.

• Adding to existing tattoos by other artists or my previous work, unless it genuinely fits the project, or I can rework the entire tattoo.

• Scenery pieces, script/text, or geometry-heavy designs.

 

other helpful info:

• You will need to be able to take photos of the area you'd like to have tattooed. Use my placement photo guide to help.

• Please read my full tattoo policies, especially if you have not been tattooed by me before.

   

  I’m a one-woman show and take time to review submissions — thanks for your patience!
