Process
Personal Connection and Vision
The journey begins with an initial consultation, where we discuss your ideas, inspirations, and the story behind the tattoo. This meeting is crucial for understanding your vision and ensuring that the design will resonate with your personal narrative.
-
Client Readiness: I expect my clients to be certain about their idea and choice of artist before booking an appointment. This confidence ensures a smoother and more satisfying process for both of us.
-
Pre-Consultation Questions: If you have any questions or need clarification about the process, I am available to respond beforehand.
-
Sharing Your Vision: When you're ready to book, you need to share your design idea, inspiration images, size details, photos of the placement area, and preferred appointment dates. This information is essential for starting the design process.
-
Photos of the placement area should be taken by someone with using main camera, when you stand in relax position and from different camera angles.
Crafting Your Unique Piece
Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, I will create a custom design tailored specifically for you. This stage involves a blend of artistic intuition and technical skill.
-
Design Preparation: After receiving all the necessary details, I begin by reviewing the placement photos, your personal style, and the information you've provided.
-
Sketching and Drafting: Initial sketches are made, focusing on the flow, balance, body movements, anatomy and overall aesthetics of the design.
-
Client Feedback: A few days before our appointment (or the day before if my schedule is busy), I share the design with you for feedback.
-
Final Adjustments: Based on your feedback, I make any necessary adjustments to ensure the design aligns perfectly with your vision. Once you confirm the final design, we are ready for the next step.
- When you arrive at the studio, you’ll find a welcoming and clean environment, with my tattoo station meticulously prepared for your session.Upon arrival, we’ll have a brief conversation to understand your excitement or anxiety, acknowledging that these feelings are completely normal.
-
Skin Preparation: I clean the area with alcohol and shave it to create a clean canvas.
-
Stencil / Freehand: Depending on the type of project, the stencil application process varies to ensure the design fits perfectly with your anatomy and movements.
-
Bodylining Projects: For bodylining projects, I start by drawing the design directly on your body with a stencil marker, ensuring it aligns seamlessly with your anatomy and body movements.
-
Custom, Fineline, and Geometrical Designs: For custom designs, fineline projects, or geometrical designs, I apply a stencil lotion to the area and place the stencil after we decide on the exact placement together.

And after your last check and confirmation, time to get inked!
