Frequently asked questions.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes, I require a non-refundable $55-$100 (depending on size of the tattoo) deposit

The deposit goes towards your final price so you're not paying any extra

What if I need to cancel?

If you have to cancel your appointment, you must give 48hr notice. If you cancel with less than 48hr notice, you forfeit your first deposit and are required to make a second deposit to reschedule.

Also, each deposit made is only good for 1 reschedule. If you must reschedule a second time for the same appointment you are required to make an additional deposit.

What is your pricing?

My minimum price is $150. I normally charge by the piece, but for large scale designs I charge an hourly rate of $150. Please keep in mind that any pricing I give on custom designs is a rough estimate, not an exact price.

To give you an idea, I charge around 300-450 for a palm sized tattoo.

What is your availability?

I work Tuesday-Saturday at Locally Famous Tattoo in North County San Diego. I take appointments from 12-5pm and I usually book a month in advance.

Can I see my custom design before the appointment?

Odds are no. Let me explain why! I try my best to get all custom designs done a few days before your appointment so we can discuss any changes you want but that’s not always realistic. When work gets busy it’s hard to keep up with demand and drawing each design can take hours.

What do I include in my booking request?

Please include the following:

SIZE: Tell me in inches roughly the size you want your design.

PLACEMENT: Let me know the general area you want your tattoo

REFRENCE PHOTOS: The more the merrier! Help me get the best idea of what you want & if you want color or just black and grey.

Do you take walk-ins?

Yes, I do take walk-ins but very rarely. I always post cancelations or open slots on my Instagram page so feel free to follow me there to stay in the loop. I always recommend making an appointment in advance.

What should I do to prepare for my appointment?

  • When booking please have a relatively open schedule for that day.

  • Must have your ID with you.

  • It’s always recommended that you eat a proper meal a few hours before your tattoo

  • I recommend bringing a bottle of water and some extra snacks

  • Wear something comfortable to sit/lay in for a long period of time (dark clothes are best)

  • Stop taking any blood thinners at least 1-day before your appointment
