I DO NOT TATTOO MINORS!
Tattoos:
I love to tattoo, I have a certain style of tattooing. I do not like to stray from this style, I like to be challenged at what I do. I love tattoos that have a story or meaning behind them. I custom draw all the tattoos I do. If I am not what you are looking for I will be more than happy to refer to an artist who does the style you are looking for, but please do not contact me about a style I do not do because we would be wasting each others time.
I do not do Flash, tribal, armbands, celtic, or anything along these lines. There are artists out there who prefer these styles, so please research and contact them.
Tattoo Prices and Estimates:
My prices are based on the client. A lot of artists go by the hour...
I DO NOT! I go by the piece. If you have a budget let me know I will work with you as much as possible, but this might limit the size or potential of the tattoo.
As a new client you must be honest and up front with me for I am going to do the same with you....the tattoo expierence is a major trust and bonding expierence, where I give you a piece of me and my artwork to you for life, therefore I will give you my all.
I can’t give you and estimate with out an idea or a drawing, this is why I like to have a consultation. I can do consultations over emails if your not local, in my area let me know because I prefer to do them in person. This consultation would involve me and you sitting down and going over your ideas, (reference pictures are always helpful) and me talking to you about how I feel and think of the piece and were we can go with it. We come to agreements on what is to be drawn.
Deposits and Drawings:
I require deposits for drawings and appointments. This secures your time with me, this is your time, no one elses. Drawings can be changed the day of appointment, it’s not a biggie, and if you don’t like it be honest this is going to be on you forever. It’s $50 and goes toward the tattoo. If your tattoo is not completed in the first session the deposit is put toward the following appointment, Deposit is then applied to last appointment. If you call and cancel the appointment in less than 48 hours or are a no show you loose the deposit. I DO NOT allow the client to leave with a drawing unless the tattoo is complete. I do not draw for other artists nor draw for you to get tattooed by another artist.
Scheleduling:
I travel a lot, all travel scheledules are posted on my website at all times. I usually book up from 3 weeks to a month in advance. I am flexiable on hours, but mostly stick to my scheldule (Thurs.-Sat. from noon - 9pm and Mon.-Wed. apppointment only).
Conventions:
I do take appointments! I do not do small tattoos at conventions,touch ups, or reworks. I will do cover-ups. I prefer to do new fresh pieces.
Touch-ups:
I do touch-ups only for 6 months after you recieve the tattoo. If your tattoo needs a touch-up you will know with-in the first month. They are included in the price of your tattoo.
Aftercare:
After one hour remove the seran wrap/bandage.
After removing the bandage, wash your tattoo with warm water and liquid anti-bacterial soap firmly(make sure all sepage has been removed).Pat dry with a clean towel.
Wash with liquid anti-bacterial soap and wrap with seran wrap before bed.In the morning remove the seran wrap.
After removing the seran wrap, wash your tattoo with warm water and liquid anti-bacterial soap firmly(make sure all sepage has been removed). Pat dry with a clean towel. After 24 hours from recieving tattoo you may start to use
H2ocean tattoo foam, only if your tattoo has stopped oozing. Shake can vigorously. Apply a small amount of Ocean Foam in palm of hand. Use your fingertips and gently apply Ocean Foam on your tattoo 3-5 times daily
after washing. Do this for 48-72 hours. After tattoo begins to flake off (like a snake skin). You may begin to use non-scented lotion, apply a small amount after washing tattoo. Rub lotion completely into skin.
