What is a reference photo?

A reference photo is a picture or pictures I can look at to get an idea of how you want the tattoo to look on your body.

Send multiple photos if just one doesn’t show the size/placement you’d like.
The reference photo does not have to be your exact tattoo, I just need a general idea to start of how you want it to look and we can adjust as needed.

Do you offer numbing cream?

I do not offer numbing cream during appointments. I recommend buying it yourself and applying it according to its directions so it has enough time to absorb, as most need at least an hour.

Check out my aftercare page for my personal recommendation.
