Preparing for your appointment

Get a good nights sleep and stay hydrated! Your skin loves lots of water, and the rest of your body will thank you for it too! Refrain from drinking alcohol the two days before your tattoo. Before your appointment or the night before, take a good shower and exfoliate an extra large area where you’ll be getting your tattoo. Don’t forget to moisturize after your shower so we can get that skin all sorts of happy!

Does it hurt? Yep, it does. Not gonna lie. Some tolerate it better than others, but once your artist starts working let them finish. Breathe, bring some music, and get into your zen zone.

If you are sick leading up to your appointment we can reschedule, we want you to be healthy and happy to get your tattoo and it’s important for the healing process. Also… germs are gross. We won’t be mad, pinky promise. Just give a quick call at (207) 747-5557.

TWO DAYS OUT: Avoid alcohol and drink lots of water.

NIGHT BEFORE: Eat a well-balanced meal. Get a good nights sleep and stay hydrated.

MORNING OF: Have a healthy, balanced breakfast. Shower and exfoliate an extra large area where you'll be getting tattooed, then follow it up with a nice moisturizer.
