Frequently Asked Questions
There are two ways:
- Filling out the form completely and accurately. I read these forms quickly and offer a time and date based off of this.
- Choosing one of my wanna-dos or pick of the board appointments (flash)
My "wanna-dos"!
- Fruit and veg
- Flora and fauna
- Neotrad styles
I have friends who do the following much better than I can offer! If you request these, I'll refer you onto others for:
- Geometric
- Pet portraits
- Colour
Yes, however I cannot guarantee your preferences. I work Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and have limited Saturdays available.
I have spaces between 11.30 am and 6.00 pm. I do not work evenings/after hours, as I have to draw for my next day's clients.
Later months in the year have more Saturdays available, and you can write this in the notes section of the form!
I am trying to book more people in, so there are less people who miss out.
Send through a few ideas if you have more than one - however, you may only be offered one space for one idea (larger works needing more than one session are not included in this).
Hopefully! I open my books in large chunks, so try to have as many slots available as possible.
However, I won't be taking on work that is too far away from my style, or work I think should go to another artist.
Very rarely will I take on a cover up that has not gone through laser treatments. For best results with my style of tattooing, laser is crucial to lighten your existing tattoo to have more options with the outcome.
I recommend Swift Tattoo Removal, and can discuss if this is the right path for you.
Unfortunately, no. I post about cancellations on my Instagram Stories, so I recommend keeping an eye out there!
I charge per piece, with a minimum set-up cost of $200.
The per-piece price is determined by size, detail and placement. I do however work best with a budget in mind, and you will go through this on the enquiry form.
I only charge per hour on larger, continuous work that needs more than five hours to complete.
Only bees and bugs, ghosts and flash that has confirmation. I draw everything custom for you (I don't take a drawing fee), or has been drawn custom from my wanna-do board.
I want you to have your own unique design, which I get to constantly evolve as an artist!
Once I go through all the enquiries and allocate you a space, I'll send through your booking info.
You will have to pay a non-refundable booking fee within 48 hours - have this ready when submitting a form.
You tattoo budget will be discussed prior and there will be ATMs close by to get out money should you need.
We do not have EFTPOS at the studio and are cash only.
Your booking fee will be deducted from your completed tattoo appointment
Keep it clean, and follow my aftercare instructions! I will be providing you with an in-depth aftercare email/sheet.
I recommend using the products I will have for you, and currently am recommending Fixomull. At the studio we do stock aftercare that you can purchase.
Should something not go to plan, DM/email me first! I will not freak you out like Google, and help you better than your friends.
You may bring someone with you to the initial consent form part of the appointment should you need, however we are unable to accommodate extras and plus ones while you get tattooed.
We are a small studio with a small waiting area. We have multiple artists with clients and it can be very distracting having more people than those getting tattooed. Plus, your tattoo will usually take a while and this can be very boring for them!
I am located at Tutti Frutti in South Yarra. We are a private studio and only send the address with a confirmation of appointment.
I send you appointment information before your appointment, usually will send a group email for everyone in that month or each week!
There is some free on-street parking available, with time limits. Paid parking is also available.
We aren't far from public transport, so you may like to consider this option instead.
Yes! It is highly encouraged to bring your headphones to your appointment. We will be able to chat through your consent discussions, and stencilling questions etc, however I have found I work best with a headphone in. I have ADHD and this helps me perform at my best without getting overwhelmed.
I also have stim toys and sensory things if you need, and you are encouraged to bring anything that makes you more comfortable for your appointment.

You must be 18+, with consent provided. You cannot get tattooed while pregnant and I do not tattoo people who are currently breastfeeding.
You must also be in good health (no infections or illnesses that could affect healing). Please reschedule if you are sick or on antibiotics.
You must be in a position to heal your tattoo properly - no swimming holidays or sport game commitments the next day! They take 1-2 weeks to heal.
Email me ASAP. I can fill spaces easier with more notice, and find you a space quicker. If I don't have a space, I'll be popping you on my rescheduling list and waiting for a space to open up.
Please reschedule if you're unwell - I'm immunocompromised.
It is much easier for me to find one space for you, than up to two weeks of spaces for people I may have to postpone should I get sick.
No shows, late rescheduling notices and flat out cancellations will result in your booking fee being forefeited.
I am very confident in tattooing a range of skin types, ages, genders, scarring, and skin tones.
Scarring is something we will need to discuss (the age of the scars, etc.) but these enquiries are so welcome.
