Important Informations
Until June 2027 I will be studying full time for my last year of Bachelor in Visual arts in Geneva. I am still tattooing on Saturdays, sometimes Friday afternoon in Basel. This is a very tight schedule, so please be considerate and understand the need for careful scheduling from your side, and potential delays from mine. I know it might not sound very fair,
but this is a temporary situation and I prefer to be as transparent as possible.
Remember, tattooing is just the tip of the iceberg in my work.
So the protocol I describe on the main page is important for me in order to keep a healthy balance Studies/tattooing.
Thank you so much for your understanding!
Pricing Basis
CONSULTATION/BESPRUNGSTERMIN
30 min chating and sketching
You are welcome to bring any images you like. I will use them as references to catch the ambiance you have in mind for your project. It is better for me if you bring more than one, because I aim to create something totally new, specifically made for you.
I will listen to your wishes concerning the design, and I will explain you the technical points we need to observe in order to insure a tattoo that will grow old with you in an optimal way.
DEPOSIT
Once we agreed on a concept for your design, we fix a date for our tattoo session.
In order to do so, I will request a deposit of 200 CHF.
This amount in no way reflects the time I will spend drawing* the final design. It is a symbolic amount that confirms your approval of the concept we have developed together and your commitment to getting the tattoo on the agreed-upon date.
I will deduct the deposite from the price of our last tattoo session.
YOU WILL LOOSE THE DEPOSIT IF :
-If you do not show up to your tattoo appointment.
-You postpone our tattoo appointment more than twice in a row.
-You postpone our tattoo appointment less than a week in advance.
-Your project is not finished, and no tattoo session happens in a year.
-You've come ill-prepared (hangover, little sleep, not eaten,...) and cut our session short by more than 30 min.
PLACING THE DESIGN ON YOUR SKIN
The placement process on the day of the tattoo is an essential part of the work, and I want to make sure we have enough time to get it right without feeling rushed. For larger compositions, this can sometimes take over an hour. In such cases, an additional flat fee of CHF 100 may apply to cover the extra time needed.
TATTOO SESSIONS
minimum price
A tattoo Design that takes me less than an hour to tattoo will cost the minimum price:
tattoo sessions of several hours
Each tattooing hour costs 200 CHF. For exemple, a 3 hours session costs
*THE TIME I WILL SPEND DRAWING FOR YOU
The invisible part of the iceberg..
The time we spend discussing and sketching your idea together usually gives us a pretty clear direction for the tattoo. I take your wishes seriously, and I'm fully aware that this is something you'll carry with you for the rest of your life. That's why I don't count the hours I spend drawing before I feel confident that the design meets your expectations and reflects what we discussed.
Some details might evolve when I arrange the elements on your skin, and I often follow an intuitive process when it comes to shading and composition.
I'm always happy to consider reasonable adjustments of the design I send you, but I cannot commit to endless revisions or to refining every tiny detail. If the amount of requested changes becomes overwhelming, I reserve the right to step away from the project. You will then have the design I have send you and be free to bring it to an other tattooer. I will nevetheless keep the 200 chf deposit.
If I agree to continue with substantial revisions requiring a new meeting, I reserve the right to charge CHF 120/hour for this work.
