What to do before your first tattoo appointment — from choosing a design and artist to sleep, food, hydration and what to bring on the day.
Choose your artist and design carefully, sleep well, stay hydrated and avoid alcohol the night before. Eat a proper meal before your appointment so your blood sugar stays stable during the session.
Wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the area being tattooed, bring ID, and bring snacks and water for longer sessions. Arrive on time and relaxed — trust the process and communicate with your artist.
