- Touch-Up Policy
- I take great pride in my work and want you to be happy with the result. If you feel that you need a touch up within the first year, I will gladly do it at no cost. It is very important to follow the aftercare instructions as best you can. If you did not follow the aftercare instructions and that is the reason for the touch up, I reserve the right to charge up to my normal hourly rate. Please let the tattoo heal for 4-6 weeks before requesting a touch up.

- Which payment methods do you accept?

- Can I see the design before my appointment?
- Prior to your appointment, we will go over all the information that I’ll need in order to design your tattoo. When you arrive to your appointment, we will be able to make small changes to the design together, if necessary. I want you to be comfortable and happy with the result, and also find it much more effective to talk about design details in person. For a number of reasons, I do not send the design beforehand, and it’s an important part of my process that it’s done this way.

- Can I use numbing cream?
- I have found that the use of numbing cream leads to less desirable healed results, and have made the choice not to work with it. I also find that almost all of my clients do just fine without it. Please do not apply numbing cream prior to your appointment, or it will be rescheduled.
