Preparation for your appointment

Appointment Guidelines

  • Please come alone. To ensure a comfortable environment for everyone, we ask you come in by yourself.

  • Design preview: We'll finalise your design together during the appointment. Please email me if you have any questions about the process.

  • Bring your ID. If you're under 25, I'll need to make a copy to add to the consent form.

Preparing for Your Tattoo

  • Skincare: Moisturise the area regularly (this step is extremely important), drink plenty of water, eat healthily a few days before your appointment.

  • Avoid tanning (fake or sun). You are at risk of losing your deposit if you sunburn the skin before the appointment.

  • Dress comfortably. Wear clothes that provide easy access to the area being tattooed.

Additional Notes

  • Open-plan studio: We are a open-plan studio, However if privacy is required, I'll gladly provide dividers and a blanket for your comfort.

  • Snacks and entertainment: Feel free to bring snacks and something to keep you occupied during the session (headphones, a book, etc.).

  • Parking: Please check parking regulations for the studio location. We are based in Leith - Edinburgh (you can get here by bus, tram, taxi or walk from the city centre. Unfortunately, we don't offer parking)
