Can I see my design before my appt?
Designs will be available at your appointment. I do not send any designs out prior to the appointment.
Small alterations can be done the day of.
If you need to make large changes to your design please let me know at least 7 days prior.
Last minute large changes may result in rescheduling your appointment and may require a new deposit.
Can I use numbing cream?
Short answer is yes. Please understand that using a numbing agent is a risk and can cause issues with healing and/or allergic reations. There is no way to predict how your skin will react.
If you choose to try it I recommend the Painless Tattoo cream. To use it take a hot shower, exfoliate the area (DO NOT scrub), apply a thick layer of the cream in the area to be tattooed 30-45 mins prior to your appt, and cover with clean plastic wrap.
