Step 1: Consultation

A consultation can be located at either the shop Welcome Home Tattoo in downtown Milwaukie, or virtually through IG Messenger.

We'll discuss your tattoo idea, size, and placement. I may take measurements or tracings. Occasionally, I may decline if I feel unable to execute or if I'm not the right artist for it.

Step 2: Design Delivery

I provide your sketch or custom design either the day before or the morning of your appointment. I reserve time for any adjustments to the design, and we proceed from there! If you prefer to receive the design before your tattoo day, there's an additional non-refundable $50 fee for a design delivery appointment, which essentially serves as a secondary consultation.

Step 3: Tattoo Process

Hooray! It's the day of your tattoo! You've received and approved the design, and now we're ready for the tattoo process. Tattoos aren't about achieving perfection like a drawing on paper; they transform into a living gallery on your body, evolving with you. While I can inly provide general estimates on time and discuss how colors may interact with your skin, the tattoo experience is dynamic. I draw upon my experience to be as accurate as I can, and make magical tattoos. During the session, we might pause due to pain or if your body needs a break, and occasionally, we may split it into two sessions. Ultimately, my goal is for us to have open communication, ensuring you leave with a custom design that aligns with your vision, something I couldn't have created alone.
