Don't work out or get your brand new tattoo sweaty or dirty. Do nothing strenuous for the rest of the day/evening, to help your body replenish itself. I repeat: Please give me at least 24 HOURS NOTICE if you have to cancel your appointment!ĭo these things after you receive your tattoo:Īfter you're done with your session, please just take it easy- go have some food, drink some liquids and relax.

Please give me at least 24 HOURS NOTICE if you have to cancel your appointment! If you make an appointment and then don't even show up, not only is it super rude, but then I wonder where you are and what happened to you. When you cancel at the last minute, not only is it irresponsible, inconsiderate and wastes my time, but it also means that I can't get another client in to take your appointment, which affects my other clients, as well. If you can't make it to your appointment, please call me at 503 807-7863 and let me know ASAP. My hours are by appointment, so I come into the shop FOR YOU.

(I can't believe I have to say this, but apparently I do!) If you're late, it may affect the other appointments I have scheduled after yours. Please be ON TIME for your all of your appointments this includes your consultation. Also, the other people who might be in the studio don't want to be exposed to whatever it is that you have if you're sick. If you have or are coming down with or are just getting over a cold or flu, PLEASE RESCHEDULE- never come in when you are sick or injured! Your immune system is already fighting to get rid of your illness or heal your injury and you may not have enough endorphins to get through your tattooing session. Your endorphin and hormone levels will be more even then and the tattooing process will not be as painful. If you're female and you have very difficult, painful periods, don't schedule a session for the first day of your period- a week afterwards is usually better. Wear loose and comfortable clothing to your sessions because we may have to move it around to reach the area where you want to be tattooed. the next day but be careful not to get dirt or sweat in your new tattoo.) (You may go workout/ride your bike/play basketball, etc. Plan on not exercising after you get your tat for the rest of that day/evening you need all of your endorphin reserves to receive a tattoo and will probably be pretty tapped out after receiving it. Sometimes it's nice to have a friend with you my studio is pretty small, so please bring only one person with you.ĭo NOT exercise beforehand the day you get your tattoo, or even the day before, if your workout is a strenuous one. You may also bring your own pillow, blanket, Smart phone or iPad to keep you comfortable.
ENDORPHIN TATTOO FREE

Stop drinking coffee/caffeine six hours before your session-because it is a stimulant and can make you bleed more- this also includes energy drinks.
