Common Questions
Before You Book
Everything you need to know about pricing, deposits, and the booking process.
I charge $250/hr. Each tattoo's price scales with level of detail, final size, and placement choice. Most tattoos fall between $250–$1,200 depending on complexity. A full session (5–6 hours) runs around $1,200.
I don't. All pre-session preparation is included. The only thing required at booking is a non-refundable deposit which covers all preparation before your session. I show up with a final, ready-to-tattoo design. Your full deposit gets credited toward the final price.
Pre-drawn designs require a $50 deposit. Custom tattoos require a $100 deposit ($200 for large-scale projects). Every deposit goes directly toward your final tattoo cost — it's not an extra fee.
You can book any of my pre-drawn designs available in my flash catalog or on Instagram. These can be done at any size and any placement. No approval needed — just pick your design and book.
Submit the custom request form with your idea, reference photos, placement, and size preference. I'll review it personally within 1–3 business days. If approved, I'll text you a private booking link. Designs are shown at your appointment with time set aside for adjustments.
No. The form is a request, not an automatic booking. I prioritize projects that align with my style, fit within my schedule, and allow enough time to create the result you're looking for. If it's not the right fit, I'll let you know and may refer you to another trusted artist.
Designs are shown at your appointment, with dedicated time for small adjustments and collaborative changes. The form lets us align on direction ahead of time so we can use your session for tattooing rather than designing from scratch.
I focus on fine line, ornamental, geometric, and detailed illustrative custom pieces. Larger scale projects — half or full sleeves, full back, or other large requests — are given priority. Check Instagram to see examples of my work.
Your deposit can be credited toward a new date as long as you notify me at least 1 week in advance. Less than 7 days notice requires a new deposit. I allow a maximum of two reschedules — after that, deposits are forfeited.
If you need to cancel for any reason, you forfeit your deposit. I don't charge a separate cancellation fee. The deposit exists to protect the time I've already invested in your project.
