The tattoo artist may reschedule the session if they believe that performing the tattoo at the scheduled time is impossible due to factors such as poor skin condition (e.g., heavily sunburned skin), changes in the client's body, or insufficient healing of a previous tattoo during a subsequent session.
In special cases, the tattoo artist has the right to cancel the session, including if the client is under the influence of intoxicating substances, alcohol, or behaves in a way that is dangerous to themselves or others. In such cases, the deposit is forfeited.
Each project is created individually for each client. Examples sent in the form of graphics or tattoo images serve only as inspiration for the final design, which will be prepared by the tattoo artist.

Tattoo project:
The tattoo design is always created on the day of the tattoo session; we have enough time to prepare the project at that time. You have an influence on its creation, and I take into account your corrections and suggestions.
Please send me references, photos, graphics, or tattoos that you like, and which should serve as inspiration for me, in a message. Select those files that best fit your vision. This will make it easier for me to work on your unique project.
You can also choose from ready-made designs of my own, which I occasionally upload to my social media.
Tattoo aftercare:
Sometimes, after the session, you may experience increased fatigue, and fever may even occur. It's advisable to rest after the procedure, allowing yourself a moment for relaxation and regeneration.
If you have sensitive skin, don't worry if a bruise appears after tattooing.
After the procedure, the skin may be slightly swollen, reddened, and may sting or itch (do not scratch).
If I applied "second skin" to your tattoo (most cases):
Remove the sticker after a maximum of two days. The easiest and least painful way is to do it gently and very slowly under running water.
After removing the second skin, cleanse the tattoo with water (you can use hypoallergenic soap) and dry it with a disposable paper towel.
After drying, apply a thin layer of healing cream or ointment to the tattoo (such as Bepanthen, available in pharmacies, drugstores in the baby care section, or other creams specifically for tattoos like Easy Tattoo, Balm Tattoo, Skin Project, Neba, Love Ink, etc.).
Apply a very thin layer of ointment to the tattoo 3-4 times a day for 3-4 weeks.
Avoid sports for a week, avoid sweating in the tattooed area. Do not soak for too long in a hot bath. I recommend a quick shower (you can wash with the tattoo sticker on; it is waterproof), during which you should wash the tattoo with something gentle. Wear comfortable, loose clothing on the tattooed area; it's essential not to rub or scratch it.
Avoid swimming, saunas, sunbathing, pools, and excessive sun exposure to the tattoo for a month. Even after complete healing, it's advisable to use UV protection on sunny days. A tattoo protected from the sun looks fresher for a longer time.
Avoid alcohol for 2-3 days after getting the tattoo.
During healing, you may notice the peeling of colored skin; do not scratch. Some ink, blood, or plasma may accumulate under the sticker, making it look like the tattoo is "smudging." Nothing like that is happening. When you remove the foil, clean all these fluids, and it will be okay.
If the sticker peels off, you can use the following method for one to two days:
If I applied food wrap/stretch film (few cases, usually for large tattoos or at the client's request):
To avoid infection (a fresh tattoo is essentially a wound through which infection can occur from contact with the external world), wear plastic wrap during the first days of healing.
Remove the wrap I applied to the fresh tattoo after about 3 hours. Gently wash the skin with lukewarm water and a small amount of hypoallergenic liquid soap or intimate hygiene liquid.
After washing, pat the tattoo gently with a paper towel.
Apply a thin layer of tattoo healing cream (such as Bepanthen, available in pharmacies, drugstores in the baby care section, or other creams specifically for tattoos like Easy Tattoo, Balm Tattoo, Skin Project, Neba, Love Ink, etc.).
Wrap the tattoo with fresh plastic wrap.
Repeat the process (remove the wrap, wash, dry, apply, rewrap) every 2-3 hours for 2-3 days. (On the second and third days, while at home and in clean conditions, you can remove the wrap for a few hours to let the skin breathe. Avoid dirt, dust, and anything that could pose a risk of infection to the fresh wound, which is, after all, your new tattoo. Before leaving the house, remember to reapply the wrap.)
Before sleeping, cover the tattoo with wrap overnight and change it immediately after waking up. (1st night)
Avoid sports for a week, avoid sweating in the tattooed area. Do not soak for too long in a hot bath. I recommend a quick shower, during which you should wash the tattoo with something gentle. Wear comfortable, loose clothing on the tattooed area; it's essential not to rub or scratch it.
Avoid swimming, saunas, sunbathing, pools, and excessive sun exposure to the tattoo for a month. Even after complete healing, it's advisable to use UV protection on sunny days. A tattoo protected from the sun looks fresher for a longer time.
Avoid alcohol for 2-3 days after getting the tattoo.
During healing, you may notice the peeling of colored skin; do not scratch.
After removing the wrap, moisturize the tattoo 3-4 times a day for 3-4 weeks with a thin layer of ointment or healing cream. Moisturized skin regenerates faster and looks better (especially your tattoo).
