How To
Book
1. Send a Message on WhatsApp
To book an appointment, please send me a message through WhatsApp using the contact link on my website or Instagram. When messaging, please include:
- ✶The tattoo idea or subject
- ✶Placement on the body
- ✶Approximate size
- ✶Reference images
- ✶Your budget if you have one
Having a budget in mind can be very helpful for planning what is realistically possible within your price range. If you are interested in multiple tattoos, booking a full day session is often more cost effective than several smaller appointments.
WhatsApp2. Be As Specific As Possible
The clearer your references and explanation are, the easier it is for me to understand the style, mood and direction you are looking for. It is very helpful if your reference images are visually similar to each other. Sending references in completely different styles can make it difficult to understand the final direction you want the tattoo to take. You can also show me examples of what you do not want.
Please keep in mind that I cannot directly copy another artist's tattoo design. However, I can create a custom piece inspired by the elements, composition or feeling you like from a reference image.
✓ Good references — consistent style
✕ Too broad — mixed styles
Photos to send
It is very helpful if you send a clear photo of the body area where you would like the tattoo placed, especially for larger or more complex projects. Please try to take:
- —Straight, parallel photos
- —Good lighting
- —Non-skewed angles
- —Clear full view of the placement area
It is often easiest to ask a friend to help take the photo.
✕ Avoid
✓ Ideal
4. Deposit & Booking Confirmation
Once we have discussed the project and agreed on the appointment, a €50 deposit is required to reserve the booking (or €100 if it is a full day session). The deposit is deducted from the final tattoo price and is usually sent through a payment request via WhatsApp. Please make sure to read the deposit rules and studio policies before confirming your appointment.
5. Design Process
Around one week before the appointment, I will begin preparing your tattoo design. The design will usually be sent through WhatsApp before the appointment so we have time to discuss feedback and make any necessary adjustments before the tattoo day. Once the design is confirmed, everything is ready for the appointment and I will be looking forward to meeting you and bringing the project to life.
✶ If you are unsure about what you want to get, or just want to brainstorm with me about the design, I have time before my workdays at 10am to do free design talking appointments. Please send me a message to reserve a spot.
