🎯 Be Prepared with an Idea
If you're looking to book a tattoo appointment and don’t yet know what you want (in terms of subject or overall look), please do not book yet.
Instead, message us via the CONTACT page to discuss your idea by email and get scheduled once you're ready.
✏️ Always Custom Work
If your reference requires drawing (anything except realism), we will always re-draw it to give you a unique piece of art
We do not trace designs unless it's handwriting from a loved one or something similar.
📖 Read more about our process on the FAQ page.
🔁 Cover-Ups / Reworks
We are no longer offering cover-ups or reworks of other artists’ work unless previously discussed with Victoria.
You're welcome to message us if you’ve had a tattoo laser-lightened or if it’s extremely faded from age/sun. We are selective with these projects, so please understand we may decline.

📌 See the FAQ page for information about numbing products.
🧼 Aftercare
You’ll receive an aftercare sheet with instructions.
We suggest grabbing your supplies before your appointment, so you’re all set and don’t have to make a last-minute store run right after getting tattooed.
- Ointment (recommend: A&D)
- Liquid antibacterial soap (recommend: Dial)
- Unscented lotion (recommend: Cetaphil)
We do not currently offer second skin/film-style healing products,
but you are welcome to use them at home.
If you have healing concerns, reach out through the CONTACT page. We cannot diagnose but can help determine if what you're seeing is typical or needs professional care.
💉 Ink Loss / Second Pass – $50 Fee
If you experience ink loss, contact us within 2 months of being tattooed. We'll send a booking link for a $50 second pass session, covering ink and supplies.
We do not offer free touch-ups, but if you’re booking a new tattoo, we can touch up the last one during your appointment — no second pass fee needed.
📖 Learn more about ink loss on our FAQ page.
