FAQ

Drop me an message if you have any other questions that are not answered here!

  • I'm not 18, can I get a tattoo?

    Of Minors Act 1969 makes clear that it is a criminal offence to tattoo anyone under the age of 18 in the UK. Valid ID (must belong to the person getting tattooed) is required.

  • Are there any health conditions that restrict me from being tattooed?

    You should consult your doctor and provide a doctors note if you suffer from diabetes, haemophilia, a heart condition or take any blood thinning medication.
    You are obliged to inform me if you have any bloodborne infection or virus. Due to the increased personal risk the decision to proceed will be at my discretion.

  • Do you have a License?

    Yes. It is a legal requirement that all premises and individuals providing tattooist services are regularly inspected and licensed with their local authoritiy. You can find out morehere.

  • Is the ink you use vegan safe?

    Yes. I use 3 brands of ink (Eternal Inks,Fusion InksandWorld Famous Inks) all of which are Vegan safe and animal cruelty free.

  • How do I prepare for my tattoo?

    Make sure you eat something at least 2 hours before your appointment and bring a snack if your booking is more than a few hours long.

    Drink plenty of fluids before, during and after your tattoo but avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your appointment. I won't be able to tattoo you if you're drunk (or on drugs).

    It's important that you don't take aspirin based pain relief products near to or after the time you get your tattoo. Aspirin thins your blood so you might bleed more than usual making it difficult to tattoo you.

  • Do you use Latex gloves?

    No. I use commercial grade powder free black nitrile gloves which are latex free.

  • How much does a tattoo cost?

    Tattoo prices vary depending on the size, detail, and complexity of the design. I provide custom pricing based on your specific idea. Feel free to reach out to discuss your design and get a quote.

  • Is getting a tattoo painful?

    Getting a tattoo does come with some discomfort, but the level of pain differs from person to person and depends on where the tattoo is placed. Areas with thinner skin or more nerve endings, such as the ribs or ankles, tend to be more sensitive. That said, most people find the pain tolerable, often comparing it to a mild burning sensation or the feeling of a scratch.
