FAQs
Do you work in black & gray or color?
Yes, I work in both. I’ll help you determine which style best suits your idea and skin tone.
How long does a sleeve take?
Usually 6+ full-day sessions, depending on the complexity.
Can you tattoo over scars?
Yes. Scars should be at least 6 months to 1 year old. Surgical scars may require doctor approval. Scar tissue can be unpredictable, and some areas may need touch-ups. Often, tattooing over scars improves the texture of the area—similar to microneedling.
Can I wear numbing cream?
I generally prefer not to use numbing cream, as many irritate the skin and can affect healing. That said, I’m open to discussing certain brands and situations ahead of time.
Do you do cover-ups?
Yes, depending on the original tattoo. I require creative freedom to ensure the new design works effectively.
Can you work over an existing tattoo?
Yes, I offer restoration work and may recommend laser removal first depending on the case.
Can I get the same tattoo I saw on your page?
No—each tattoo is completely custom. I use inspiration but never replicate.
Do you work weekends?
Yes, I occasionally offer weekend appointments depending on availability.
