To book your appointment send me an email with your idea and include details like size, placement, black and grey or color, etc. and include any reference photos you may have. It may take me up to a week to respond. If you don't hear back from me, feel free to email again or to send me a message through Instagram. 


I prefer to concentrate painterly contemporary realism designs similar to what you'll see in my online portfolio. I very much enjoy tattooing nature elements, pet portraits, surreal lady faces, and anything dark and beautiful. 


I don't typically recommend the use of numbing cream. The only one I prefer to use if you have to is the brand Numb 27, as it is the only one that I've not experienced complications with. The caveat with numbing cream of any kind is that once it wears off the pain feels far more intense, as your body has not had the chance to ease into it. This typically tends to happen within 4 hours or less. 


Skin health is important when preparing for a tattoo. It is a good idea to prepare your skin before getting tattooed by lightly exfoliating the area a few times a week and moisturizing with a collagen moisturizer daily. 

If you have any of the following affecting the area you plan to have tattooed, please reschedule at no cost to you.

-sun burns

-psoriasis outbreak

-poison oak/bug bites

-deep scarring that has not been healed for at least one year

-suspicious moles/skin patches

-scrapes, cuts, burns, bruises 

If you have any questions about anything listed above, or that hasn’t been included, pertaining to skin condition and tattoos, please feel free to include that in your submission



Consults are by appointment only and do not require a deposit beforehand. We can do this in person, over video chat or via Instagram or email. They typically last anywhere from 10-30 minutes and are for us to get to know a little about each other and discuss design ideas more in depth. If we decide to move forward with the tattoo together, you will be expected to pay the booking fee and this locks in your appointment date in my schedule.
I do my best to be honest with you about your ideas or needs, and will not take on a project if I don’t believe I’m capable of doing so safely and correctly. 


I do not send designs to clients before their appointment. If I have any questions about your design I'll reach out and discuss them with you, and may request to have a video chat or for you to come in for a consultation in person if you are local to Eugene or Franklin. 


I do require a non-refundable booking fee of $200 to schedule your appointment which comes off of the balance of the final appointment of your tattoo. All booking fees are final and non-refundable


I accept Cash, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, PayPal or Credit Card. 


Be sure that you are well hydrated and eat a full meal before coming in for your appointment. It is not a good idea to consume alcohol the day before, and definitely do not the day of.  I recommend wearing comfortable clothing, and bringing a zip up hoodie. Make sure whatever you're wearing gives easy access to the area to be tattooed. It is a good idea to bring headphones/earbuds & a tablet or phone to watch if you'd like. Many people choose to bring snacks with them if the session will last several hours. 


I will need at least one week notice in order for you to reschedule your tattoo without requiring an additional booking fee. If you do need to reschedule, please keep in mind that I will only be able to reschedule you at my soonest available spot which could be several weeks out from the original appointment. Day before, day of cancelations and No-call-no-shows will result in an immediate forfeiture of your booking fee and you will have to put down another in order to schedule with me again. If this happens more than once; I will no longer work with you.


Please do not arrive more than 10 minutes before your scheduled time. If you're going to be late let me know as soon as you know, do not wait until the time of your appointment to reach out to me. If you're more than 20 minutes late, your appointment may be rescheduled, and you could be required to leave an additional booking fee. 


I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone at any time.

If you make anyone in the shop feel unsafe you will be asked to leave immediately and forfeit your booking fee.

If you show up and are suspected to be under the influence of any mind altering substances, you will be asked to leave and forfeit your booking fee. 

If you no call no show, you forfeit your booking fee.

If you cancel day-of, you forfeit your booking fee.

By placing a booking fee with me, you agree to and understand all terms listed.
