Handpoking uses a needle to puncture the skin one dot at a time by hand rather than an electric-powered tattoo machine. Handpoking does take longer than machine tattoos since it’s a longer process. It is generally less painful and more gentle to the skin, leading to quicker and easier healing.

You can find all my available flash on my Instagram in the ‘available’ story highlight!
Flash designs are one off and will not be repeated unless said so.
If the flash design you want is taken or you’d like some changes made to the design I’m happy to do a variation of the design for you but it will come at an extra cost.
Flash designs are first come first served.

Custom designs are cute lil personalised tattoos just for you!
When booking, I’ll ask for as many references as possible and for it to be explained in full detail.
Always love doing:
Pets

Disclaimer: I will only accept custom designs that align with my style but I’ll refer you to some amazing Perth tattoo artists you can go to instead :)

I require a non-refundable $100 deposit to secure your booking/appointment.
If you’re not too sure on the design or don’t have a secure time for your appointment, I’m happy to hold onto your deposit for you. The hold period only lasts for 3 months. After the 3 months your deposit will expire and you’ll have to pay it again upon booking.

My minimum for tattoos is $150 but if you’d like multiple tiny designs in one session I can fit it in the minimum price.
Prices do vary and are based off design, size and placement. Flash designs have a set price and size, while custom designs will be determined after the design has been complete.
My prices usually range from $150-$500.
If you have a budget please let me know and we can work around it :)

Please provide 48 hours before rescheduling or cancelling your appointment.
Cancellation - After the 48 hour period a $50 fee will occur.
Reschedule - After 48 hour period a $50 fee will occur. This cost will come out of the cost of the tattoo.

If you’ve changed your mind about the design, please let me know 48 hours before your appointment. After the 48 hour period an extra $50 design fee will occur or we’ll have to reschedule your appointment.

Preferred placements: arms and legs.
Unfortunately I won’t be doing any torso area at the moment since it’s very hard to stretch the skin and position the body.
Hand and finger tattoos: these placements tend to fade quickly since the skin sheds from use and washing.
FULL DISCLAIMER these tattoos don’t last long and may impact future work placements.
-
Yes of course!
It’s encouraged to book a 3pm slot or a full day session so I can have enough time and won’t be rushing. If they’re two small designs I should be able to fit it in a 11am or 3pm slot.

Free touch ups are only available for the first time and must be booked within the first month after the healing period (min 3 weeks). After that you will be charged to cover supplies and time.
I do not touch up other tattoos done by a different tattoo artist.

Please be kind and patient with me! I’m only one person doing the front and back of Ami Pokes.
Please only send other tattoo artists work as reference as I won’t copy the design to tattoo. Must only be used as examples for colour, placements etc.
Unfortunetaly I’ll decline your idea if the style doesn’t allign with my own, but I’m happy to recommend some amazing local artists.
Please add specific deails with references to avoid a lot of back and forth. Try to avoid telling me “you have creative freedom” since it usually leads to revisions and corrections.
You’re allowed one person to join you at your appointment and please let me know if you do bring someone along.
Please schedule/organise your day appropriately and provide enough time for me to tattoo and not rush, especially if you have other plans/work on the same day.
ARRIVING AT YOUR APPOINTMENT If you get to the appointment early feel free to walk around Fremantle for a bit or take a seat outside the barbershop. I prefer you come in at your appointment time rather then you coming in early since that’s the time I’m doing all the prep work. If you’re late that’s no stress just let me know!

The address is available to you when you book your appointment. When it’s your appointment time just walk in, let the boys at the front know you have an appointment with me and one of the barbers will guide you to the back.

The studio is very close to the train station and two large parking lots. Westgate Car Park has $12 all day parking or you pay for the required tattoo session time. Unfortunately the only free parking available is within the suburban areas a little further away from the studio. So if you’re willing to walk feel free to do so :)
