Your comfort is our top priority while you are in the studio, and therefore, we offer complimentary access to coffee, tea, and soft drinks during your sessions. Additionally, we exclusively use high-quality tattoo wrapping such as Second Skin or Tattoo Armour to ensure the best possible experience. As an extra service, we provide complimentary aftercare products that you can take home to care for your new tattoo.
How many sessions for your specific project
We’re committed to making your experience both efficient and enjoyable.
There are a few factors that can influence just how much we can accomplish in a single session. Your pain tolerance, the characteristics of your skin, whether you've brought along a friend or partner, and the occasional breaks for a smoke or coffee all play a part. And, of course, the unique design, complexity, size, and placement of your tattoo also play a role.
I love building a connection with my clients, but if you prefer a quieter session, just let me know. You’re welcome to bring an iPad, podcast, or some music. We’ll take breaks throughout the day, and during lunch, you can either join us for a meal in the studio or explore nearby spots.
A little tip: I specialize in skulls and bio-organic elements, which means we can get more done in less time for these designs.
Once your booking request is submitted, we’ll figure out the right number of sessions for your project. I usually allow for extra time by booking an additional day - it’s easier to cancel a day if we finish early than to add one to an already packed schedule.
A day in the chair
Our studio operates by appointment only and is open on weekdays. Your session begins at 10 am with a quick chat over coffee or tea, where we’ll discuss your design and any expectations you may have for the day.
Once we’ve connected and you feel comfortable, I’ll begin sketching directly onto your skin - usually starting with yellow, followed by red and blue pens for the finer details. The yellow sketch creates the foundation, and much like seeing images in a cloud, the design begins to take shape as we add the other layers. This technique lets me work with the natural flow of your body’s movements, muscles, and bone structure, making sure the design fits you perfectly.
Once we’re both happy with the sketch, we move on to the tattooing process.
Around 2:30 pm, we’ll take a break for lunch – you’re welcome to join us, or you can grab something nearby. We’ll continue tattooing until about 5:30 pm, and once we’re done, I’ll take some photos of the finished piece and wrap you up. You can usually expect to be heading out around 6:30 pm.
As a dedicated artist, I can’t always predict exactly how long the process will take. If your tattoo needs a little more time to finish, I may extend the session by an hour or two at no extra charge, rather than sending you off with an "almost done" piece. It’s always a good idea to keep your schedule flexible after our session, just in case.
Ensuring your safety & comfort
At our studio, your safety, privacy, and comfort are top priorities.
We maintain a secure and private environment with security cameras, locked entryways, and frosted windows. We don’t accept drop-ins - only scheduled appointments are admitted.
For sessions requiring clothing removal, we provide private areas and cover-up options, like pasties, to ensure your comfort.
Our cozy studio is run by a small team - usually just myself and my wife, Linn, who manages the studio. Occasionally, we host guest artists, but the focus is always on you and creating a relaxed, personalized experience.
We also keep the studio comfortable, offering complimentary coffee, tea, and soft drinks during your visit.
If there’s anything else we can do to make your time with us more enjoyable, just let us know when booking.

Cancellations & rescheduling sessions
We understand that scheduling tattoo sessions can be challenging for some regarding long-term plans. We are flexible when it comes to altering your appointment/s if unexpected changes occur in your schedule.
It's important to note that the prepayment is non-refundable for cancellations made within 14 days before the scheduled session. We ask for your understanding as we rely on a well-organised calendar to ensure both the shop's operations and our daily routine. Therefore, it's crucial to respect everyone's time and notify us of changes or cancellations as early as possible. Late cancellations make it difficult for us to offer this time to another customer, so the sooner you contact us, the better. In case of illness, we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding.
