How do I book an appointment/Are you taking appointments?

Please checkout my Tattoo page for all the booking info. No walk-ins.

What kind of style can you tattoo/What subject do you accept?

Due to limited availability in booking, I prioritize inquiries for original flashes. For customs, I currently accept art from an existing anime/manga, pictures/movies, and any style close to my original artwork. For use of another illustration, I will not accept any designs from another tattoo artist, or artwork from an artist who does not allow them to be used for tattooing. All of my work will be in black and gray with option of small red accent.
I don’t do: Realism of any subjects, Religious/Political context, traditional, face/genital/groin/mouth/hand/feet tattoos, coverups/modification of existing tattoos, and stolen commission work from another tattoo artist.

I submitted an inquiry. What now?

Normally I will respond to you no later than 7 days after receiving your submission. You will not get a response if your inquiry is far from my subject matter mentioned above.

Where are you located?

Berkeley, CA — See my Instagram for guest spot schedule for other locations.

What is your rate?

$250/hr. $300 minimum. With a non-refunable deposit of $200 which count towards the final cost of the tattoo.

To accommodate large (10”+) custom projects and high detail pieces, any projects exceeding 6hrs will be quoted at fixed price upon consultation.

Pro-Tip: Ask me about my want-to-do pieces or competition tattoos for discounted projects!

Do you offer touch ups?

If the original tattoo was done by me, absolutely! After your tattoo is healed you’re more than welcome to ask for a free touch up. Afterwards, a touch up session will be $50/hr. Free Touch ups are only available in Berkeley, CA location. Any touch ups of my work during my guest spot, will be charged a shop minimum.

Can I see my custom design before my appointment?

Final design will be presented to you on the day of the appointment where we will also take time to review and make any modifications to the design if needed. Major design change may result in rescheduling the appointment.

Do I tip my tattoo artist?

Not mandatory, but we certainly appreciate it! We’re a service industry so it is totally up to you to decide if you would like to tip us. Similar to restaurants, 10-15% being “great!” and 20-30% being “amazing!!!”

What payment method do you accept?

Cash and Zelle are both accepted. If none of them work on the day of the appointment, you can pay via card or Venmo (transaction fee may be included). Deposit can be paid via Venmo, Zelle, or Paypal.

Do you tattoo custom designs?

Depends on the custom you ask for is aligned with my style and subject matter—please refer to the list on the previous questions.

How do I reserve your flash?

Check for my flash on instagram marked as “Available Design” in the description. Mention the title of the flash when you fill out your inquiry.

Can I get your flash tattooed by another artist?

Absolutely not. No exceptions.
