Flat. We quote the piece, not the clock. You know the number before the needle touches skin.
Day-of
Government photo ID, your references, a snack, and water. Eat a real meal beforehand. One guest max.
Day-of
We draw custom from your references, but we won't trace another artist's portfolio piece. Bring the mood, not the screenshot.
Day-of
No. 21+ with valid government photo ID, every time. No exceptions, and no tattooing anyone who's been drinking.
Aftercare
You leave wrapped with a written aftercare sheet. Keep it clean, keep it moisturized, stay out of the sun and the pool. Follow the sheet.
Aftercare
Free touch-ups within 60 days if you followed aftercare. After that, regular rates apply.
