  • please note: I do not respond to instagram dms. I ask that you use my form to book (or ask for quotes), or email me for any general questions.

What is a consultation?

  • Consultations are free 15-minute appointments in which we can discuss your tattoo and bounce ideas off each other prior to booking the actual tattoo. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions and refine our ideas. 

  • During the consultation, I will give you a quote for the tattoo, and we can find a date to book your tattoo if you choose

How much will my tattoo cost?

  • This is a bit of a tricky one to answer without knowing what the tattoo will be. if you’re after a price estimate please use my enquiry form so I can hear about what you’re after and best quote you accordingly.

  • I will always provide a quote before you book in, this quote is recorded in the notes of your booking to ensure the quote I have given is the quote that is honoured

  • I do not charge hourly. Although how long a tattoo takes is somewhat factored into the price, quotes are determined based on a few other things: sizing, detail, and placement.

  • if you have a budget to work within please let me know! I am always happy to do my best to work within your limit, just remember this may involve making a design smaller, simplifying it or changing the placement. I am also happy to split up sessions if that makes the price more manageable for you, let me know and I will do my best to accommodate!
