MIND > Matter [please read caption] ✨

I’m away from today till the 26th June for my birthday! It’s the big 30 🥳 and I’m off on a quick solo adventure to Mexico 🇲🇽 - I will be getting back to all enquiries across WhatsApp /site submissions/ dms over the next week or so in between tacos and long walks sippin juice😂

Some FAQs I would like to address as I’ve been getting a lot of the same questions recently.

“When are you next available” or “when’s your soonest appointment”- I cannot tell you this until I know what you want, please see my highlights for a full breakdown of what I need from you or alternatively you can follow the link in my bio. The wait can be anything between 1-10 weeks+.

“When are you open? ” I’m appointment only and do not offer walk in services

“Do you do cover ups” - if it’s workable, yes 🥳. Please send an image so I can see it. I won’t touch it if I don’t know I can make it better - having an idea of when you would like is also really helpful

“can I book in” - I really need more info than this 🥲

“I want a tattoo but I don’t know what to get” - unfortunately, you’re not ready. I will not just put anything on you when I don’t know you as a person. Tattoos are a permanent choice and are with you for life. There’s no need to rush. I’m here when you’re ready 🤝

A polite note that a hello, hi, good vibes and lovely manners go a long way 💕 Leading with “ how much?” just isn’t a great start brooo 🥲

Lastlyyyy, Loveeee to you all who have been rooting for recently and showing up in so many different ways to support me in what I’m building. Thank you for the trust. It encourages me to grow and consistently want to do better 🫶🏽 I’m excited for my 30s mannnnn LETS GOOO 🙌
