Ready For The Chair
A little preparation goes a long way.
Rest & Hydrate
Get a full night’s rest and drink water before your appointment. Bring a water bottle.
Eat Before You Arrive
Have a meal beforehand and pack snacks for longer sessions. Tell your artist immediately if you feel unwell.
Prepare Your Skin
Moisturize in the days beforehand, but skip lotion on appointment day. Ask your artist about shaving; the shop can help. Avoid razor burn and cuts.
Dress Comfortably
Choose loose clothing that lets your artist reach the tattoo area easily.
Arrive Ready
Arrive sober. Tell your artist about damaged or sunburned skin; your appointment may need rescheduling. Avoid workouts that leave you exhausted or sore.
Respect The Workspace
Keep your hands away from the fresh tattoo and equipment. Give your artist early notice if you need to change your appointment.
Medication Questions?
Ask your prescriber about tattooing safely. Don’t stop or change prescribed medication on your own.
