f.a.q.

  • I am a self-taught artist from Puerto Rico. Art has always been an important part of who I am. Before tattoos it was a lot of sketchbook drawings and graphic art designs. Mostly for fun or for friends. Now I have been tattooing my designs on people for over 4 years and have grown such a passion for it. I am still new to the game and I continue to learn with each and every tattoo I design. Art is a life-long love of mine and I am grateful to be able to express it through this medium.

  • I am just a regular guy with a family and 2 dogs. I just so happen to really love anime, pop culture and meeting awesome people! My designs are custom to each person and I design them all myself. I love what I do and do what I love.

  • After the initial consultation, I get started right away to create an original design that my client will love. References are always handy but not necessary, so if you have a cool idea I will do my best to bring it to life for you! I ask for full trust with my artistic process. While it may seem time consuming to others, it is really important to me that I create my own designs. I do not use AI in my creative process.

  • Collaborative, honest, and fun! From start to finish my goal is always to create a comfortable and relaxing environment for all of my clients. Most tattoos are fast but others may take multiple sessions. My clients should expect to hear some good music, fun conversation and all the anime recommendations they would like!

  • That is so awesome and I am honored to do it! Here is some info to know before you get your first tattoo:

    Tattoos take time to heal. In order for them to look their best for the longest amount of time you will want to keep them hydrated/lubricated. Especially when you first get them! I recommend using a scent-free lotion if you can. I always use Aquaphor on my fresh tattoos.

    Speaking of fresh tattoos, you will want to avoid any water activities until your new tat is done healing! I recommend waiting at least 6 weeks before any swimming in any body of water, even a bathtub!

    You can expect some mild swelling, redness, itchiness, tenderness, light peeling in some areas. This is all normal and will go away quickly with proper care. See the “Aftercare Instructions” for more info.

  • Before your appointment try to bulk up on calories and hydrate as much as possible! Tattoos are fun but can take a bigger toll on your body when you neglect these two factors. You can also bring snacks and drinks to your appointment if you’d like. You may thank yourself later!

    1. Keep your tattoo clean by washing gently with antibacterial soap 2-3 times a day. Or anytime you need to reapply lubricant.

    2. Keep your tattoo lubricated with a thin layer of unscented moisturizer. I recommend Aquaphor healing ointment or an unscented lotion you know works well for you.

    3. DO NOT expose your tattoo to direct sunlight. It will hurt and you will regret it.

    4. AVOID swimming and/or bathing in any large bodies of water. This means no pools, beaches, spas/hot tubs.
