Preparation for Your Tattoo

For the best results and a smooth tattooing process, it's important to prepare the area to be tattooed prior to your appointment. In the week before your appointment, avoid excessive sun exposure, cuts, scrapes, and irritation. If you must sunbathe, apply sunblock to the intended area. In the days leading to your appointment, moisturize the area, but avoid doing so on the day of your tattoo. Remain well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water and abstaining from alcohol for at least two days prior to your appointment. Ensure you are well-rested and have consumed a full meal at least an hour before your appointment. For longer sessions, bring a snack to maintain your energy throughout the process.

Upon arrival, shower, wear comfortable clothing, and consider bringing a large towel and pillow for additional comfort during the tattoo application. It's important to note that our chairs are covered in plastic for safety, and towels or pillows may provide a more comfortable experience.
