GET YOUR APPOINTMENT
I want to thank every single soul for the support and trust in the process of creating your designs in complete
expression of my style.
I will continue to realize only projects in dotwork and fineline, ornamental style. Flash projects will have
priority to personal projects, and last but not least I don’t do cover ups.
Bookings will therefore only be
accepted for projects in the mentioned style above.
I am looking forward to read your mails and be inspired by your ideas.

FAQ
CAN I BOOK A CONSULTATION?
It is possible to exchange information before the tattoo appointment, but usually the consultation takes place on the day of the tattoo. Naturally we won’t start tattooing until you are certain and happy with your design!
WHAT SHOULD I BRING ORÂ WEAR ON THE DAY OF THE TATTOO?
Please have something to eat before the appointment, for longer sessions bring some snacks and drinks to stay hydrated. You should be well rested.
Concerning clothing, please think about the desired area getting tattooed. If you are getting a leg tattoo, wear something we can crop up or shorts. If you are getting a shoulder or chest tattoo, please wear a strapless bra if possible.Â
I am not listing every placement here, but I think you get the idea. If you have any questions I did not answer in my FAQS, please write me.
WHICH PRECAUTIONS DO I NEED TO TAKE AFTER THE TATTOO SESSION?
Your tattoo is a wound, it needs a lot of care during the healing process (4-6 weeks). Please read the aftercare instructions below and follow them carefully.
Be aware that every person's skin is different and some areas of your tattoo will take longer to heal than others.
​
If you think something is wrong with the healing process, please contact me and we will advise you about what to do.
If for any reason your tattoo needs a touch up, please contact me as well an we will arrange a second session. Touch ups are free of charge.
I am always looking forward to see your healed tattoos, so if possible, I woulad really appreciate you sending me pictures a couple of weeks after the appointment.
DO YOU OFFER COVERUPS?
Unfortunately I do not. It is just not compatible with my tattooing style. Fine line and ornamental work, will not cover the desired areas, and you won't be happy with the outcome if you really want to cover some tattoos that you do not like anymore.
I NEED TO CANCEL MY APPOINTMENT. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
If you can' t make it to the appointment, please contact me as soon as you can. Your deposits are non-refundable, but we can reschedule your appointment.
If you cancel within less than 7 days, you will unfortunately loose your deposit. This is to compensate me for my time, as it’s difficult for me to refill the gaps with other clients on such short notice.
WILL YOU REFRESH AN EXISTING TATTOO?
Honestly, I am not going to work into another artists designs. We can work around the existing tattoo and incorporate it withing your new tattoo.
AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS
IF
you have a self-adhesive film protection on your tattoo, please follow the instructions below:
1. Leave the self-adhesive film on your skin for a maximum of 3 days (if it sticks as long on your skin)
IF
The film loosens early OR your tattoo was wrapped in plastic film
(which I will only use in case you react to the self adhesive protection), continue with these steps:
2. Wash your tattoo with lukewarm water + antibacterial soap (PH neutral), to rub away the blackened plasma and blood softly. Wash with cold water on the area, to close your pores.
3. Dry the area softly with a disposable paper towel (cloth towels may have bacteria on it),
before applying a thin layer of cream.
​
4. Wear breathable cotton clothing over the area.
​
General Information
​
Always wash your hands before cleaning or creaming your new tattoo.
Wash your tattoo 2x a day with water and PH neutral soap. Dry the area softly with a disposable paper towel (cloth towels may have bacteria on it), before applying a thin layer of cream. Keep the tattoo moisturized.
Avoid touching or scratching your tattoo. Removing the scab early will remove the ink, and could risk infection/ changed outcome.
Avoid water (pool, bath, sauna) or sun exposure for the following 4 weeks.
Avoid close contact with pets while your wound is fresh. Wash immediately in case of contact.
Avoid intense workouts for the first 2 weeks. Sweat and dirt can irritate the tattoo, stretching the skin too much could influence the healing process.
Continue this process for 2 weeks. Applying cream further on, will keep your tattoo moisturized, and with a darker appearance.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email me.
