Looking for an Amazing Tattoo Artist in Los Angeles?

I take every precaution to ensure that my studio is a safe hygienic environment and I prioritize the safety and comfort of my clients. I use sterile needles, follow strict sterilization procedures and hygiene protocols to protect your health and to prevent infection. I also use high-quality ink and follow industry best practices to ensure the best possible results.

Yes, I require customers to provide a valid form of identification, such as a driver's license or passport, in order to confirm your age and identity. You have to be over 18 years old to get a tattoo.

That's okay! Many of my clients come to me with a general idea or theme in mind, and I can help you develop a specific design that reflects your personal style and vision. During your consultation, you'll have the opportunity to discuss your ideas and preferences with me and see rough sketches or digital mock-ups of your tattoo design.

The time it takes to complete a tattoo depends on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the design, the placement on your body, and your pain tolerance. Smaller tattoos can take as little as an hour to complete, while larger tattoos may take several sessions to complete. I will be able to give you a more accurate estimate of the time it will take during your consultation, based on your specific tattoo.

Most people experience some discomfort when getting a tattoo. However, the level of pain can vary depending on the individual and the location of the tattoo. Sensitive areas such as the ribs, inner wrist, and spine tend to be more painful, while areas with thicker skin such as the upper arm or back tend to be less painful. I do everything I can to make the experience as comfortable as possible, including offering numbing creams and taking breaks as needed.

Here are some things you can do to prepare for your tattoo:

• Arrive at your tattoo appointment well hydrated.
• Get plenty of rest the night before, arrive well rested and not tired.
• Wear comfortable, loose clothing that allows easy access to the area you're getting tattooed.
• Eat a light meal and stay hydrated before your appointment to ensure that you have enough energy and are comfortable during the tattoo process.
• You may want to bring a snack or drink to have during your tattoo session, as some sessions can take several hours.
• Avoid consuming alcohol or smoking weed the day-night before your tattoo and in the morning of the day as these can increase your sensitivity to pain.
• If you have any medical conditions or are taking any medications that might affect your tattoo, be sure to let me know before your appointment.

You could but they’d stay in the lobby for most of the time as our studio does not allow people other than the clients in the tattooing area.

I generally do not recommended for customers to bring children with them to their tattoo appointment. The tattooing process can be intimidating and may not be suitable for children, and my studio does not have accommodations for children. It would be best for you to arrange for childcare or have someone else take care of your children while they are getting tattooed.

Pets or ESA animals are not allowed by law and only the client’s certified service dog is allowed to the facilities of tattoo studios. You’d need to be in control of the animal and he/she/they should behave.

Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks before your tattoo appointment, as these can make the skin more sensitive and increase the risk of complications. Also avoid wearing tight or restrictive clothing on the area to be tattooed, as this can make the tattooing process more difficult.

I always recommend to wait a few weeks after the baby is born as tattoos can sometimes mess with the immune system and/or cause infections which is why it is not advisable to get a tattoo when you're expecting a baby.

On a basic level, being on your menstrual period will not affect your tattoo, and a tattoo will not affect your period.

It's generally possible to tattoo over scars or stretch marks, but the results can vary. The appearance of the tattoo may be affected by the texture and color of the scar tissue. It's important to discuss your scarring with me during your consultation to determine if tattooing is a good option for you.

If you have any skin condition such as eczema/psoriasis or similar, it's important to mention that to me before booking a tattoo and mandatory to get advised by your certified dermatologist.

A person with these conditions most times can get tattooed when they control the condition, the best bet is to stick to places where you don't usually get flare-ups. 

Some medications, such as blood thinners or acne medications, can affect the healing process of a tattoo. If you're on medication, it's important to discuss this with me during your consultation. Similarly, if you have allergies or sensitivities to certain materials (such as latex or certain inks), it's important to let me know so that I can take precautions to ensure your safety.

I've been tattooing colour tattoos on a large scale for around 11 years now, on average 5 days a week, and after thousands of tattoos I had only a handful of clients that were allergic to some colours, and even in those cases it didn’t really cause a large issue and we were able to control it.

There’s not really a way to know if you’re allergic to tattoo colours and there’s no tests for that. I do use high-quality, hypoallergenic inks to minimize the risk of allergic reactions.

If you are aware of being allergic to any colors you have to let me know if we’re doing a colourful tattoo to avoid using the palette you’re allergic to.

If you are very concerned and want to do your best checking if you’re allergic to a colour you’d like to get, maybe you could google it and do some DIY tests at home.

All tattoos will fade to some extent over time, as the ink is absorbed into the body's natural healing process. However, the rate of fading can vary depending on a number of factors, including the quality of the ink, the skill of the artist, and the location of the tattoo on the body. Proper aftercare can also help to preserve the color and detail of your tattoo.

Tattoos can be removed, but the process can be expensive and time-consuming. There are several methods available for tattoo removal, including laser treatment, dermabrasion, and excision. It's important to carefully consider your decision to get a tattoo and make sure it's something you're prepared to commit to before getting inked.

No, I do not offer tattoo removal services.
