Your First Tattoo
First tattoo? Here's how it works.
Getting your first tattoo should feel exciting, not intimidating. Here is exactly what to expect from start to finish.
The process
Send your inquiry
Use the guided form to describe your idea, placement and size. Attach any reference images. This starts a conversation — it is not a locked-in appointment.
We talk it through
Our team follows up to understand your idea, answer questions and match you with an artist whose style fits what you want.
Design & planning
Your artist develops the design and reviews placement, sizing and any adjustments with you before the day of your appointment.
The appointment
You will get clear preparation guidance once your appointment is confirmed. On the day, we keep the room calm, focused and comfortable.
What to bring
- A valid government-issued photo ID
- Any reference images or notes about your idea
- A snack and water for longer sessions
- Comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the placement area
How to prepare
- Get a good night's sleep and eat a proper meal beforehand
- Stay hydrated in the days leading up to your appointment
- Avoid excessive alcohol the night before
- Ask us anything — no question is too small
