FAQ

How much to you charge

As much as we try to give a price per design, our artists work at £60 an hour. Good tattoos aren’t cheap and cheap tattoos aren’t good

Do Tattoo's hurt

Yes. But it is not an unbearable pain and we will try to make you feel as comfortable as possible.

Will you tattoo someone under the age of 18 with parental consent?

Definately not. This is breaking the law and under no circumstances will we even consider it. For this reason, we ask all clients to bring valid photo ID to their appointments.

How long will my Tattoo take to heal

Everybody heals differently, some faster than others, but as a general guideline your tattoo will take between 10-14 days to heal.

After Care

Tattoo Aftercare - Please Read

1, Keep your dressing on for approximately 3-4hrs, this will give your new tattoo enough time to start healing and building a natural barrier, significantly reducing the chance of infection.

2, Do not cover again, as much as it is important to keep your dressing on in the beginning, once the natural barrier is up, it is important to let air get to your tattoo so It can heal.

3, Wash your new tattoo in warm water using an anti bacterial soap twice a day and then pat dry, do not rub scratch or aggravate your new tattoo, its is an open wound still and therefore it is important to keep it clean.

4, Apply a recommended aftercare ointment, again this is another way to reduce the risk of infection, although not 100% necessary we advise using a tattoo specific aftercare.

5, Do not use vaseline or sudocream on your new tattoo, your new tattoo needs time to breath products like these block the pores and do not allow your tattoo to breath.

6, Bathe and shower as normal but do not soak your new tattoo, this will draw out essential oils your body naturally produces to aid the healing process.

7, A scab will form, do not scratch or pick it, allow it time to heal this can take 10-15 days, picking, scratching and irritating the scab can cause you tattoo to crack or bleed, this could draw ink from your tattoo as a result causing poor healing.

8, Avoid swimming, sunbeds and sun exposure until your tattoo is fully healed, once your tattoo has fully healed you can resume these activity’s, although we advise you to use sun screen when exposing the tattoo to sun.

9, It will take your body several more weeks for your skin to return to normal everyone heals differently so the time scale for this differs from one person to the next.
