Preparation (Before Session)
To ensure a smooth and comfortable tattoo session, there are a few things I ask of you:
​
-
Be open to discussing design ideas and trust the guidance I provide. I work daily to create durable and stunning works of art specifically for you.
-
Get a good night's sleep before your session to feel well-rested.
-
Have a satisfying meal before your session - a hearty breakfast and bring a packed lunch for the day to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
-
Consider bringing sugary drinks and snacks. Your body's adrenaline levels can fluctuate during the session, potentially causing dizziness or fainting. Having something sugary to drink and eat helps prevent this.
-
A tattoo takes time and patience, so be prepared to sit comfortably for an extended period.
​
Remember, the tattoo design is personalised for you. You don't have to heed the opinions of friends or family as they won't be the ones getting the tattoo. Listen to the advice and guidance I offer throughout the process.
How to ensure a more comfortable experience for yourself
Experiencing pain during a tattoo session is subjective, varying from person to person. Where you get tattooed on your body also affects how it feels. Yet, managing the discomfort is possible. Simple techniques like focusing on your breathing or shifting your attention can help reduce the sensation. Moreover, factors like your diet, sleep, and lifestyle may influence your pain tolerance.
​
While having family or friends along for moral support might seem comforting, it doesn't always help. Actually, in some cases the familiarity of companions can make you more sensitive to the pain. Consider attending your tattoo session solo and remember to follow the guidelines provided by us for the best experience.
