Q: Where can I see your work?

Q: How much is a tattoo? 

A: This absolutely depends on 'what, where & how big'. ✨I prefer to set Fees per session. Fees are stated according to the block of time we may need to achieve your design request. ✨Please check my Booking Page to see related related values & times to Book a Consultation, Book a Custom Tattoo or Book a Post Surgery Tattoo. ✨If you are still unsure, we can discuss in a consultation setting :) 

 

Q: How long does it take to heal? 

A: You may want to check my posts on Custom Tattoo Prep & Aftercare Advice. Healing can vary somewhat due to style of tattoo, area on the body and overall health habits. ✨ 2 - 6 weeks is a basic time frame for surface healing and cellular renewal. I like to consider a tattoo is 'fully healed' at 3 months time.

 

Q: When can I shower, swim or go to the gym? 

A: Shower any time you want!  Otherwise do nothing 'extra' for 1 week! AND wait ✨✨✨ an additional 1 - 2 weeks to resume pool/lake/ocean, gym/yoga/running & sweaty sports.  If the skin is smooth and no-longer has any healing signs on the surface you are good to get back to your busy life.  ✨Once again, to learn more ~ please checkout my Aftercare Advice .
