I want to share a little about how working with me goes —so you feel at ease and know what to expect. When you fill out the form (link in bio), I carefully read everything you send: your story, references, thoughts. You don’t need to have a clear idea — just a general direction. We will shape it together. I don’t send sketches in advance. Every design is created specifically for you and your anatomy — right before the session. This keeps the idea alive and honest, without overcomplicating or losing its essence. When you arrive, we look at the sketch together. If something doesn’t feel right — we adjust it. And only when everything feels “just right” do we begin. This process is collaborative. You don’t have to plan everything in detail beforehand. Just bring what matters to you — I’ll help give it form. ⸻ How to Prepare for Your Session: — Try to get a good night’s sleep beforehand and have a good breakfast the morning of your session. A rested and well-fed body makes the process more comfortable. — Bring your favorite snacks and drinks — you’ll probably want to eat something during breaks. — If the tattoo area has hair, gently shave it a day or two before and moisturize the skin with cream. This helps avoid irritation and keeps the skin ready. — Don’t worry about moles — everyone has them. I always try to organically include them in the overall design. — If you have any skin conditions, allergies, or medical concerns — please let me know in advance. This is important. — Bring comfortable, loose clothing that will be easy to wear during the tattoo. I don’t recommend wearing light or expensive clothes — ink stains can happen. — If you don’t mind me photographing your tattoo for my portfolio, solid-colored, non-patterned clothes work best (just a suggestion). Respect is at the core of my work: respect for you, your idea, and your body. I look forward to seeing you at the session and creating something truly personal for you.
