When my bookings open, I send out a newsletter with a link to the booking form, new available designs, and other updates.
Next round of bookings will open on January 2nd. This will be for appointments taking place in March and April.
Once you submit your booking form, I will respond within one week. Please remember to check your spam folder, as my replies sometimes end up there. My response will include my availability, a quote, and deposit details.

→ I don’t offer fully bespoke designs for first-time clients.
Customised designs are something I currently offer only to returning clients. This has become an important part of my process — it helps me make sure that you're truly aligned with my style and approach. First-time clients are welcome to choose from my pre-drawn designs, and I’m happy to make small modifications on the day of the appointment. :)
→ Large-scale projects are prioritised — either from my available designs on the website or variations of tattoos I’ve done recently.
I specialise in large tattoos that flow naturally with the curves of the body. I love drawing directly on the skin to ensure the design fits your placement perfectly and feels like an organic part of you.
→ Large pieces can be split into smaller sessions.
If you’re interested in a large project but the full commitment feels overwhelming — whether due to budget or time — we can break it up into smaller sessions. This depends on the design, so sometimes a consultation is needed and sometimes not. If this option sounds right for you, just mention it in the form and we’ll figure out the best approach together :)
→ Smaller flash designs.
Once large projects are booked in, I offer any remaining time in my schedule to clients interested in smaller flash designs. If you’re applying for one of these, please be patient — it can take up to 7–10 days for me to get back to everyone and confirm all appointments. -

Deposits are non-refundable.
Appointments may be rescheduled once without losing the deposit, provided you give me more than 72 hours' notice.
Cancellations made less than 72 hours before the appointment will result in the forfeiture of the deposit. However, if I manage to fill the slot, 50% of your deposit will carry over to your next appointment.
For guest spot appointments, I require a 7 day notice.

You must bring ID with you. A driving licence, passport or national ID card is preferred.
All clients must come alone to their appointment. If you need someone to accompany you, please let me know in advance.
Please wear loose-fitting clothing around the area you’ll be getting tattooed. Ideally black - we don’t want any ink stains :) Since we’re now approaching winter months, it’s good to have some layers ready in case you get cold in the studio. We have blankets and hot water bottles in the studio for your comfort as well :)
I accept cash or a bank transfer.
Please make sure you have had something to eat before the appointment and bring some snacks / meals for longer appointments.
It’s a good idea to get a good night’s sleep the day before your appointment.
Bring headphones, books or anything else you’d want for entertainment :)
Drinking alcohol or taking drugs the night before is not advised (and it is illegal to tattoo anyone who is under the influence of either). Having alcohol in your system will mean that you will bleed a lot during the tattooing process, and drinking soon after the process can prevent your skin from healing properly which can damage the tattoo.
Please come on time and don’t plan anything directly after your appointment.
The Island is a shoe-free studio to create a homely feel, please feel free to bring slippers or warm socks
