We will be printing off a few different sizes of your designs and turning the one you prefer into a stencil

We wipe the area that we are putting the stencil on with rubbing alcohol to kill any bacteria on the surface of the skin

In most cases when we go to put the stencil on it is best if you stand in a neutral position (standing upright with arms by your side and head forward) to avoid your design being twisted or crooked on your body.

Placing the stencil can be the hardest part about getting a tattoo and it usually takes a few tries

Do not worry about being picky with the placement! If you want us to move it, we can super easily.

We tattoo using rotary tattoo machines with disposable needle cartridges. Which means none of the equipment we use, to tattoo, comes in contact with anybody else.

We use high grade professional tattoo ink that is highly pigmented and we have a wide range of colors. We can also mix any specific shade you may desire. 

• Please keep in mind that tattoo ink can take on a different shade in the skin. Colors tend to become more muted and can take on a slight yellow tone from the melanin within our skin.

We use vaseline on the skin as we tattoo which helps to keep the ink from staining the skin as we work and also helps to keep the ink from spreading over the skin.

We use green soap to wash the ink off of your tattoo. It is very diluted with water and is skin safe.

Very often we use tegaderm/second-skin as a bandage for your tattoo when it is complete. It is a clear sticker like bandage that stays on your tattoo while it heals.

All equipment exposed surfaces are sterilized with opticide after every tattooing session.
