Questions

How much is the deposit and when do I pay it?

To hold your spot, I usually require a $250 deposit. This deposit will be applied to the final cost of your tattoo and is paid by card through Tattoodo when you book the appointment. I offer financing options through Klarna, allowing you to spread out the deposit cost if needed.

How many sessions will my tattoo take?

Here’s a rough guide: • Half sleeve: 2-3 sessions • Full sleeve: 5-6 sessions • Half leg: 3-4 sessions • Full leg: 6-8 sessions • Back piece: 6-8 sessions

What affects how long a tattoo takes?

Several factors influence the time needed: • Placement on the body • Color vs. black and grey work • Level of detail • Size of the piece • How your skin takes ink

Can I book multiple days in a row?

Yes, maximum 3 consecutive days to ensure proper healing.

What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel?

If you need to reschedule or cancel, just let me know 48 hours in advance. Deposits are refundable within this timeframe.

Can I get any design I want?

I’ll work with your ideas but add my own style to create something unique. If I think a design won’t work well as a tattoo, I’ll let you know and suggest better options.
