Q?
How to prepare for the tattoo session?
-
A.
To have the best experience please arrive for your tattoo appointment well rested after a good night sleep, have a substantial meal before your sitting. Make sure you stay hydrated throughout the day, before and after getting a tattoo. Feel free to bring drinks and light snacks, specially for longer sessions. Please do not try to prepare yourself for the tattooing with help of alcohol or drugs. It can increase bleeding, painful sensations and can compromise the quality of your tattoo due to additional ink loss. We will refuse service if you are under the influence of alcohol/drugs and your behavior is disruptive.
