1 DAY BEFORE THE SESSION:

Shave the placement of the future tattoo

This will make the skin less irritated, when done on the day of the session

Scrub the placement of the future tattoo

Removing dead skin sells helps the tattoo ink to go in easier & positively affects the healing process

Do not drink alcohol

Alcohol in your body will cause more bleeding during the tattoo session

Have a good sleep

The better sleep you had the night before - the better your organism will deal with stress of getting a tattoo. Try to avoid partying or late night stay

"Each step is here for a reason — your comfort, the quality of the result, and how quickly your skin heals after the session."

THE DAY OF THE SESSION:

Try to avoid coffee

Coffee, same as alcohol, makes our blood run faster, so it can lead to an excessive bleeding during the session. Especially, if your tattoo consists of light shades.

Eat full breakfast

Having a full and healthy breakfast will help your to have enough energy to handle the pain

Bring something sweet for after the session (for small/medium session)

It can be a banana, protein bar or chocolate. Sugar is a fast and efficient way to restore the lost energy. It will immidiately make you feel better

Bring some snacks/lunch, book/movie (for bigger sessions)

We always have a lunch break during a full day session to restore the energy and get some power for more comfortable tattoo process

Wear comfortable clothes

think in advance, how you going to expose your body part for a comfortable work and wear relevant clothing

"Good preparation is the first step toward a tattoo you'll love."
