Getting a tattoo is an exciting, personal, and often transformative experience—but it’s normal to have questions or feel unsure about where to start. If you’re considering getting a tattoo from me, I’ve got you covered! Here’s a step-by-step guide to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
Do Your Research and Prepare
Before diving in, spend some time exploring my work and learning about the tattoo process.
• Check my Portfolio: Look at my website and social media profiles to see examples of my work. Not everything is on the website, so checking my Instagram can give you a broader idea of my styles.
• Read My Blog: I’ve written detailed posts about FAQs, tattoo care, and the process. These are handy resources to revisit after our meeting.
The more informed you are, the better we can collaborate to create your dream tattoo!
Send Me an Email
When you’re ready to move forward, email me with the essential details:
• Body Part: Where on your body would you like the tattoo?
• Desired Size: Provide approximate dimensions (e.g., 10×10 cm).
• Preferred Style: Black and grey? Watercolor? Mandala? Let me know what you have in mind.
• Reference Pictures: Include any images or links that inspire your design.
• Availability: Share your preferred days and times for an in-person meeting.
This helps me understand your vision and prepare for our first meeting.
Book Your Free Consultation
Use my online calendar to schedule a 15-minute free consultation at Bern Tattoo Studio. This is the first step in my 7-step system for getting a tattoo.
Let’s Meet!
During our consultation, we’ll:
• Review your idea in detail.
• Discuss the placement, size, and style of your tattoo.
• Address any questions or concerns you have.
I’ll provide expert guidance, pricing estimates, and “homework” if needed (like refining your ideas or gathering more references). If your design is complex, we might need additional meetings to perfect it.
This meeting is about building trust, understanding your vision, and ensuring we’re aligned before moving forward.
Plan Your Tattoo
I always say, “You can’t just buy a dream house without planning it. The same goes for tattoos. We need to plan your body art carefully so you can live happily with it forever.”
Here’s what we’ll discuss:
• What works best for your body shape and lifestyle.
• What designs or placements might not be ideal and why.
• How we can refine your concept to make it even better.
Your input is invaluable, and together, we’ll create a tattoo that’s perfect for you.
Book Your Tattoo Session
Once everything is finalized, we’ll book your tattoo appointment. I’ll also explain deposits, payment options, and what to expect on tattoo day.
Trust the Process
A tattoo is more than just ink—it’s a collaboration. Open communication and trust are key. I’m here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring your tattoo journey is exciting and stress-free.
