YOUR VISION. OUR OBSESSION.
01 / CUSTOM REALISM
We welcome ALL tattoo styles and specialize in custom realism. Black-and-grey or color, every piece is designed around your ideas, placement, and creative direction.
02 / COVERUPS & BLACKWORK
Thoughtful coverups and reworkings, alongside bold blackwork. Each design is developed around your existing ink, placement, and creative direction.
03 / FINE LINE
Refined linework and carefully balanced detail. Custom fine line tattoos designed to complement your chosen placement.
04 / LIP BLUSHING
Cosmetic lip tattooing focused on softly enhancing color and definition. Shape, tone, and your desired finish guide the consultation.
05 / SCALP MICROPIGMENTATION
Scalp micropigmentation uses carefully placed pigment to create the appearance of closely cropped hair. Consult to discuss hairline design, coverage, and suitability.
06 / COSMETIC TATTOOING
Cosmetic tattooing with a considered, detail-focused approach. Discuss your goals, preferred look, and suitability in a personal consultation.
07 / SCAR CAMOUFLAGE
Scar camouflage tattooing explores pigment blending to soften the appearance of suitable healed scars. Suitability, skin tone, and expectations are discussed before treatment.

TWO WAYS TO CREATE SOMETHING YOURS
YOUR IDEA. YOUR DESIGN. YOUR WAY.
01 — STANDARD CUSTOM TATTOO
RECOMMENDED — CHOSEN BY MOST CLIENTS
$300 BOOKING DEPOSIT | APPLIED TOWARD YOUR TATTOO
Ready to bring your idea to life? Book your tattoo appointment with a $300 deposit, applied toward your tattoo’s total cost. Your custom design is created using your ideas and references and presented for review at your scheduled appointment. We’ll go over the design together, and you can request reasonable adjustments before tattooing begins so you’re confident in your final piece.
02 — PREMIUM CUSTOM DESIGN
FLAT-RATE CUSTOM ARTWORK | QUOTED INDIVIDUALLY
Most clients choose standard tattoo booking, where their custom design is reviewed at their appointment.
Premium Custom Design is an optional service for clients who want refined artwork completed in advance.
Detailed custom artwork can take many hours to create, and design fees can be substantial. Each project is quoted individually based on complexity and estimated drawing time.
A 50% deposit is required upfront. The remaining balance is due upon completion. Design fees are separate from tattoo costs.
