How we draw

001

Drawn for you

You bring the idea. Your artist draws it for your body, at the size and place it wants to live.

002

Drawn once

A custom piece is never tattooed twice. When it leaves the sheet, the sheet goes in your folder.

003

Worn for life

We check in on day 14, when it has healed. If something needs a touch-up, you tell us.

The drawer [ Flash, this season ]

Ready-drawn pieces from the studio's drawer. Each one is tattooed once, then the sheet is retired.

Pick a sheet and send a request. Your artist answers about size and placement.

From idea
to healed

Four steps. You always know whose turn it is.

How it works
  1. Your idea1

    Send a request

    A few lines, a reference if you have one, the placement and the size. It takes a couple of minutes.

  2. Our reply2

    Hear back right away

    You get a note straight after you send it. Then your artist reads it and answers you personally.

  3. The day3

    The session

    We draw it, put the stencil on, and you say yes before any needle starts.

  4. Day 144

    The healing check

    We write to you when it has settled. Aftercare is in your inbox from the first evening.
