☼ Fresh + Healed ☼


Handpokes tend to settle into the skin more dramatically than machine-made tattoos, so my practice focuses more on underdoing versus overdoing it. You can always email me for a touch up (singlepickles@gmail.com), but you can’t undo any raised scarring. These side-by-sides are to help you adjust any expectations for how your tattoo will look at the end of our appointment and then after the swelling and redness have subsided.
