Tattoo Session Prep

Before Your Session

Get a good night’s sleep before your appointment. Eat properly and stay hydrated.

You’re welcome to bring snacks or food — there’s a kitchen available if you want to

warm something up. Moisturise the tattoo area in the days before your session. Please

avoid sunburn or bruises on the area.

What to Wear

Avoid clothes you care about — ink drops can happen occasionally. Dark or black

clothing is usually the best choice. Wear something that makes the tattoo area easy to

access and keeps you comfortable.

Numbing Policy

Medical-grade numbing sprays are provided and applied by me when needed during

the tattoo process. Please don’t use or bring numbing creams — I won’t tattoo over

numbing cream, as it can change how the skin behaves and heals.

Getting Here & Access

The studio address is included in your booking confirmation.

There’s no free parking inthe building, but paid parking is available nearby. Ring the bell at Block D, go upstairs, turn right, and head to the end of the corridor.

Time Expectations

My rough estimate for the session is around 7 hours, but this is not an end time.

Tattooing is unpredictable and I don’t like rushing the work. Please don’t book anything

for immediately after your session.

Pain, Breaks & Flow of the Day

Pain levels change during long sessions — that’s normal. We work at a pace that

makes sense for the body and the tattoo. Breaks are always fine for the toilet,

stretching, cigarettes, or resetting when needed.
