This page was created to help me keep my appointments orderly and easy to navigate. 

I'd like to make things to flow as smooth as possible, as this helps both of us.  

The most direct way to contact me is texting or calling my work number.
631-743-0843
Please also send your first and last name so I'm fully aware of who I'm talking to.

You are welcome to call but I'm not always available to answer due to the nature of my work.  If I don't answer, please leave me a text message because it will be in sight when I check my messages. Don't be offended if I don't get back to you right away.  I am only one person and if I'm working, I'm giving that client my undivided attention, just as I will give you when we are working together. Likewise, please don't be offended if you contacted me through social media and wound up here.  It streamlines my business and helps me to help you in a more efficient manner.  

 I can sometimes set up same-day appointments if I have enough time to draw up and do your tattoo in the time I have available.  I do want to give you my best work so sometimes it's better to have patience and get something worthy rather than something rushed.  Lets talk about your ideas and set up a better day and time.

Good art takes time. This benefits you!

 

If you're looking for a day to walk-in... watch for updates on my instagram.  I'll often make a post stating

when I'll have time open for walk-ins or same day appointments.  For the record, my books are never closed.

In order for me to get a clear idea of what it is you're looking for in a tattoo, it's best to schedule a free consultation.  You can text me or call (631)743-0843 so we can figure out the best date and time to talk about your ideas.  I want to fully understand your vision! (If you're traveling from farther away and can't visit the shop, I can also do consultations via Facebook messenger or something similar.)

After our consultation, if you decide to move forward with an appointment, I will collect a deposit, give you a receipt and we'll schedule an appointment. For more information, see the Deposit Policy page.

​

​Please refrain from trying to hold 3rd party consultations unless it's absolutely necessary.  In order for ideas to be clear and precisely what the client is looking for; I'd rather speak to the person who will be receiving the tattoo.  They're going to be able to answer questions that no one else can.

All tattoo appointments/drawings require a non-refundable deposit (cash, zelle and venmo are preferred) that will be applied to the total cost of the tattoo upon completion.  I can't just draw something up for you in my 'free time'. If I'm drawing for an appointment, that's work.  I need a target date and time set to aim for.  Please know what days and times work for you...  weekdays, weekends, afternoons, evenings, etc.  This helps me to narrow down times that I have open in my schedule.

I do not send drawings through text or email.  I work on drawings for appointments in order and tend to draw for appointments a day or so beforehand, depending on the piece.  That way it's ready on the day of your appointment.  For larger pieces, like sleeves or other body panels that have to be assembled directly on the client or drawn on, sending drawings would only lead to confusion.  I am usually able to grasp concepts easily as long as they're described clearly, and I normally ask a lot of questions so if anything minor would need to be changed or modified at the last minute, it's normally not that complicated to make those changes and extra time is usually set aside for that.

If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance.   This allows me time to rearrange my schedule and fill that time slot if I can.  I can also move your deposit to a new date.

Please let me know as early as possible if you're feeling ill or have an unexpected emergency.  I do understand there are things in life that can't be avoided and I can reschedule you for a later date.

If you absolutely need to have your tattoo done on a specific day, it helps both of us if you set up an appointment well in advance. Appointments are first come, first served, so the sooner you book that date and time, the better.  A month is normally good...  if you're trying to book a weekend, two months is better.  Weekends always book the fastest but that can also depend on the season.
