your tattoo session should feel a whole lot like the best parts of summer camp
chatting with your bestie in a calm serene space, leaving feeling energized, renewed, and with memories that will last a lifetime (literally on your skin forever!)
You might be nervous to get tattooed because of the pain, but the environment should never be stressful. I designed my studio to be a place where the ambiance is calm & cozy + clients feel as peaceful as possible.
I'd love to show you how different tattooing can be at IBE!

prepare
- Eat a Good Meal: Never go to an appointment on an empty stomach.
A balanced meal stabilizes your blood sugar and prevents lightheadedness
- Wear Comfortable Clothes: Choose loose, dark clothing that allows easy access to the area being tattooed, and don't mind getting a stray drop of ink on it.
- Don't Shave the Area. It’s best not to irritate the skin before your appointment.
Shower and Use Deodorant
-Avoid Alcohol & Aspirin
-Avoid Sunburns
- Get a solid night's sleep
- I’m a talker, but if you’re not, I recommend bringing a pair of AirPods/earbuds.

- It is essential your tattoo is kept clean, and allowed to breathe while healing!
We recommend to let the tattoo breathe.
- With clean hands, wash your tattoo 2-3 times a day with warm water + fragrance free antibacterial soap (liquid gold dial is my favorite). Gently pat dry with a paper towel.
-No itching, picking or scratching.
- No excessive sunlight, and no excessive soaking (pools hot tubs, lakes etc.) for the next 14 days while healing.
- Do not touch unless washing or applying ointment!
Apply sunscreen when healed and in direct sunlight!
The healing period is generally 10-14 days. Keep your tattoo clean while healing! If redness or swelling occurs, and gets worse over this period of time, it could be a sign of an infection. You may need to seek medical attention.
next - touch ups

Touch ups are a normal part of having a fine line tattoos!
However fine line tattoos are meant to have a softer, more vintage look, so contact me to be completely sure there is need for a touch up, because going over already existing lines can make them thicker, which makes them not as crisp and fine line.
All touch ups must wait until completely healed, 6 weeks after initial appointment. All touch ups must be made within 1 year of the initial appointment.
Anything outside of this window is subject to a charge.
