    Unfortunately our bathroom is upstairs as we are an old building which we are unable to change. We do have a costa next door with a suitable disabled bathroom
  • Memorial & recovery tattoos.

    We are very happy to do these tattoos, however we do recommend waiting 6-12 months before committing to this type of tattoo. Occasionally a grieving/trauma state of mind isn't ready for the tattoo process. This is to protect the artist as well as yourself. We want you to have a tattoo you are happy with and ready for.
  • Please arrive on time (not early) to reduce the amount of time spent in our waiting room or outside, we have a waiting room down stairs to sit in and I will come down to collect you at the time of your appointment.

    If you are more than 15 mins late for your appointment you will need to book for another time and pay a new deposit.
  • Please do not use numbing cream, this can make an area much harder to tattoo and can also affect the quality of your healed tattoo.

    If this is an issue please contact us so we can discuss this with you as there are circumstances where you can use it.
