tattooing
I love the idea that a tattoo represents your personality. It can also stand for something you want to remember, you have achieved or you want to boost in yourself etc.
And it is totally fine if you just find something aesthetic or see it as jewelry, too. For me a tattoo is always some sort of self expression that becomes part of your body forever.
awareness
I will try to do everything for your comfort.
A part of my job is to answer all of your questions.
There is no stupid question.
I will do my best not to make you feel exposed in any way, however if there is anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, do not hesitate to speak up and know that your request will be taken very seriously.
care
before:
The smoother and healthier your skin, the better the tattooing and healing process will proceed.
Please make sure your skin is moisture and well looked after.
In order to receive a perfect outcome you should start moisturizing the desired area one week ahead of the appointment.
Skratches, moles and scars should be mentioned and talked about, as there are certain things to consider.
while:
No drinks / drugs or blood thinners.
Be well rested and eat healthy.
Bring enough time as tattoos are not meant to be done in a hurry.
Tattoo ink is not washable. I will do my very best to keep you clean,
but maybe you don't want to wear your newest shirt.
Please feel free to bring your favourite accessoires or clothes to take a beautiful picture of your new tattoo.
After:
For the following 6 weeks please do not swim, bath, sauna, shower too hot, sunbathe, go to solarium, or practice sport.
Keep in mind that alcohol and drugs do effect the healing process.
Also first clean, then cream your tattoo on a regular basis (4-5 times a day).
I recommend Tattoo Med or Panthenol without zinc or vaseline.
Make sure to use only very thin layers of cream.
Clean your tattoo by showering it carefully with warm water. Only use ph-neutral soap.
After healing use UV-Protection (50+), to make sure your tattoo stays strong and fresh.
Please follow this instructions to make sure the outcome is as perfect as possible.
IMPORTANT: Skin is not paper. Every Skin is different, there is always a risk of blowout or irregular healing.
