Im currently tattooing at Black Sheep Tattoo in Saint Paul, MN.

(713 Minnehaha Ave E, St Paul MN 55106 - Suite 215)

But I love traveling and frequent conventions around the nation. There is a ticker on the homepage that lists out my travel dates.

Let me know if you want me to come to a city near you:)

I offer free consultations so we can discuss your tattoo further. These are very important for large pieces. Sometimes smaller tattoos can be scheduled right away without the consultation.

There are plenty of contact areas within the website to start with. I communicate only via email, as phone numbers can get a bit overwhelming.

Absolutely.

$100 deposit is required to reserve a date in my calendar. This deposit will go toward the final cost of your tattoo at the final session. Leaving more than $100 is an option up to a point.

This deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.

If for some reason you need to reschedule your tattoo indefinitely, then your deposit will stay valid for 1 year. I will even remind you a month before it expires to see if your available to get tattooed.

I charge $200 per hour and work on an hourly rate.

I also provide clients with a price estimate before starting.

If there are budget, pain, or sitting concerns; I’m happy to work with clients and do smaller sessions or rework designs to reflect those concerns.

Both cash and credit card/Applepay are accepted.

I don‘t use any cash apps such as PayPal or Venmo. Any invoices will be via email and have my logo so please reach out if you’ve received something different.

Cash will also be the cheaper option as it doesn’t carry that pesky credit card fee.

All tattoos hurt. Some great analogies I’ve heard over my career is that it feels like a cat scratch, a bad sunburn, or a small pinch.

Some areas can hurt more than others. If you a lot of anxiety or nerves about an area or the pain associated with it; please don’t hesitate to ask. I’m honest about the process and do what I can to make it as pleasant as possible.

I prefer to tattoo without any numbing cream.

That being said, I understand it is available and some clients will choose to use it.

I urge you to communicate with me about anything you plan to use. I have experienced certain products that are a detriment to the tattooing process and wouldn’t want your tattoo or your skin to be effected.

If you haven’t used the numbing cream before then please apply a small area of your wrist according to the directions. Doing this a few days before the appointment, will ensure that you aren’t allergic to the product.

A two weeks leading up:

Hydrate your skin. Lotion the area you want tattooed daily until your appointment.

The night before:

Hydrate the rest of yourself; drink lots of water. Get a good night sleep

The morning of:

Eat a big meal before getting tattooed, this helps with your stamina and blood sugar levels. Bringing snacks and water with can help keep that stamina throughout the rest of the appointment. You’re also welcome to bring headphones, a book, a blanket, or whatever makes you comfortable for the day ahead.

And lastly of course, don’t be late:)
