HOW TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT?

Follow the “Book Appointment” button and complete the form. Once you’ve completed it, click “Submit”. I’ll reach out to you within a few weeks about your ideas.

DO I NEED TO LEAVE A DEPOSIT?

Yes, a non-refundable deposit is required when booking an appointment.

HOW OLD DO I HAVE TO BE TO GET A TATTOO?

No, you cannot. In New York State, you must be at least 18 years old to get tattooed, regardless of parental consent.

CAN I BOOK A GROUP OF PEOPLE TO GET TATTOOED TOGETHER?

Yes, you can. When submitting a booking request, you can write this into a blank section of the form and I will coordinate with you and your group when I reach out to you via email.

DO YOU TAKE WALK INS?

No, my studio is strictly appointment only unless I am hosting a special walk in event, at which time details will be shared here on my website and on my instagram page.

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY APPOINTMENT?

• Be sure to get a good night’s rest before your appointment

• Hydrate as best you can the days leading up to it

• If you’re a morning-coffee person, avoid caffeine intake at least 24 hours prior to your appointment, if possible, unless you have withdrawal symptoms that make you ill. 

• Bonus points if you gently exfoliate your skin a few days prior and apply moisturizer on the days leading up to your appointment! 

• NO: alcohol, recreational drugs, blood-thinners, tanning, spray tanning, numbing cream, or shaving the area (I do that part for you) prior to your appointment. 

• If you take any blood-thinning medications, consult your doctor to be sure it’s safe for you to skip them 24 hours prior to your appointment

• If you have any pre-existing conditions, consult your doctor to make sure it is safe for you to get tattooed. -If you have any rashes, hives or open wounds on or near the area you plan to get tattooed, kindly inform me asap so I can make the best decision as to whether rescheduling is necessary or not Feel free to bring any games or books to keep you occupied if you’d like. Closable food and drinks are also welcome.

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY NEW TATTOO?

Before leaving the studio, I will go over the aftercare routine with you. See the “Aftercare” page in the “Booking” section of my website to view the full instructions.

WHAT IS YOUR HOURLY RATE?

My current hourly rate is $260. My travel rates vary.

WHAT IS YOUR SHOP MINIMUM?

My current shop minimum $160.

HOW MUCH DOES A TATTOO COST?

Tattoo cost varies greatly and depends on many factors, such as size, detail, location on the body, etc. Price estimates are given prior to booking but your final tattoo price is determined at the end of your session based on details we discuss before your appointment so everyone is on the same page. Please note: Tattoo price estimates are only valid for the design initially discussed. The cost of your tattoo is subject to change in the event you make changes to your design on the day of your appointment. You will be informed of price increases if you make changes prior to starting your session.

WHAT PAYMENT METHODS DO YOU TAKE?

I accept cash, any form of debit/credit, Cash App, Afterpay. No checks.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

My studio is located at 56 main street, suite 7, Warwick, NY. (Between Etched In Time and the Mountain Store, 2nd floor, hallway to the right)

WHERE IS PARKING LOCATED?

See “The Studio” page for parking information.

IS THERE WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBILITY?

No, unfortunately the studio is located in a very old building and does not currently have wheelchair accessibility. If you or your guest have mobility assisting equipment, please contact me prior to your appointment so I can coordinate with you to make the appropriate arrangements ahead of time to best accommodate your needs and help ensure you and your guest have a relaxing and comfortable experience at the studio.

MAY I BRING A FRIEND WITH ME?

Yes, you are more than welcome to bring a guest with you. I just kindly ask you limit it to no more than 2 people, as the studio is small. For events and larger groups, special arrangements are made to comfortably house more people but this is not the case for day to day appointments.

CAN I BRING MY CHILD WITH ME?

No, you cannot. My studio has a strict 18+ only policy and anyone under the age of 18 is prohibited from entering, regardless if they are supervised by an adult. This is for the safety of all parties involved. If you are unable to find childcare prior to your appointment, I kindly ask that you reschedule no less than 48 hours prior to your appointment to avoid deposit forfeiture. If you are unable to do so and arrive to your appointment with children, your appointment is at risk of being cancelled and regarded as a same-day cancellation. This will result in the loss of your initial deposit and you will be required to leave a new deposit at the time of rescheduling.

DO YOU DO PIERCINGS?

No, I do not. I do not have a body piercer at my studio at this time. My shop is currently a tattoo-only private studio.

CAN I BRING MY DOG WITH ME TO MY APPOINTMENT?

I WISH. But sadly no. Unless you have a trained service dog, pets cannot accompany you to your tattoo appointment. If you have a certified service dog they are warmly welcomed. Kindly notify me prior to your appointment if you have any specific needs and I will do my best to accommodate.
