Common Questions

How long should I wait before requesting a touch-up?

Wait at least 4-8 weeks for your tattoo to fully heal. This allows us to accurately assess the final result and determine if a touch-up is truly needed.

What if I need a touch-up after the 8-week window?

Touch-ups requested after 8 weeks may be subject to a session fee depending on the size and complexity of the work needed. Contact us with photos for a quote.

Will my touch-up be done by the same artist?

Yes, whenever possible we schedule touch-ups with the original artist who created your tattoo to ensure consistency.
