about me

hi, i’m annie. i’m a visual designer and tattoo artist in LA. my tattoos blend illustration and graphic design—clean, intentional, and personal. every piece starts with a conversation and a sketch made just for you.

one-of-one policy: i do original designs only and never repeat a tattoo. if you bring references, i use them as direction only; your final tattoo is custom and won’t be tattooed on anyone else.

booking

before booking, please read the guidelines & agreements. by booking, you agree to my non-refundable deposit, a 48-hour reschedule/cancellation window, prep rules, an age requirement, and completing a short consent/health form. 




?frequently asked questions



safety & hygiene statement

i always use single-use, sterile needles and ink caps, and open them in your presence. everything that touches skin or ink is brand-new and disposed of afterwards—no exceptions.

fresh gloves and any non-disposable surfaces will be wrapped in plastic to prevent cross-contamination. after each session, i clean all work surfaces with hospital-grade disinfectant and sterilise tools. 



customer consent

before any tattoo begins, you'll sign a brief consent form—right before your appointment. it confirms that:

  • you’re legally old enough (typically 18+) and have a valid ID.
  • you’ve shared important health info (allergies, medications, skin conditions, etc.).
  • you understand tattoo risks, permanence, and agree to follow aftercare directions.

this protects both of us and helps ensure your safety and satisfaction. 



pricing & deposit policy

  • pricing depends on tattoo size, placement, and complexity—fair and transparent estimates are provided before booking.
  • a deposit is required to hold your slot. It’s non-refundable but applies toward your final cost. 
  • rescheduling is allowed with at least 48 hours’ notice, and the deposit is transferred to your new appointment. 
  • no-shows or cancellations within 48 hours forfeit the deposit. A new deposit is required to rebook.



tattoo prep for clients

to ensure your tattoo experience is smooth and safe:
  • hydrate well, avoid alcohol or blood thinners 24 hours beforehand.
  • eat a good meal before your session—low blood sugar can affect your comfort.
  • wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the tattoo area.
  • avoid sunburn or tanning on the tattoo spot—you need healthy skin for the best healing.
  • moisturise ahead of time, but don’t apply lotion on the day you get tattooed.




age & ID requirements

  • you must be 18 or older and present a valid government ID (driver’s license, passport, etc.)
  • we cannot tattoo anyone under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
  • in certain cases (e.g., minors or special circumstances), additional parental consent—this will be discussed if applicable.
