STUDIO INFO
I work from Oracle Tattoo, a private studio located in East Toronto. The studio is appointment-only and does not take walk-ins.
There is a Green P parking lot as well as paid street parking. When you arrive for your appointment at your scheduled time, buzz my code so that I can ring you in and you can make your way upstairs and enter the first doors. If you are early, there are some great cafes nearby. I recommend Pomarosa and Mofer Coffee!
Studio GUIDELINES
All clients must be 18 years of age or above.
Arrive at your scheduled appointment time. If you are early, kindly wait until it is time.
Do not come to your appointment under the influence of any kind.
Be respectful to all artists, clients, and the studio space during your appointment.
Clients must come with minimal company as there is limited space in the studio. Please notify me if you plan on bringing a guest.
SAFETY Precautions + Procedures:
Masks must be worn for the entirety of your appointment. Artists and clients will also be wearing theirs.
Your temperature may be checked upon arrival.
Rapid tests are available and may be used to ensure the safety of the studio, artists, and clients.
Please do not come to your appointment if you are feeling unwell, are exhibiting any COVID-19 symptoms, or have been in contact with someone that has recently tested positive. With appropriate notice, your appointment can be rescheduled once all is well.
If you get a COVID vaccine (or any medical shot), it’s best to have a grace period of 2 weeks before and after your shot date before getting a tattoo. This is to ensure your immune system and skin are in the best condition to be tattooed and to avoid hindering the healing process.
Tattoo INFO
Flash designs that are “repeatable” can be tattooed several times.
On the day of your appointment, we can always adjust the size and placement of your tattoo and make adjustments if necessary. Changes may result in a fluctuation in price, which I will inform you of.
For custom designs, you must submit your inquiry via this form so I can approve your concept, either by email or consultation, before you can officially book your appointment.
deposits + PAYMENT
All appointments require a deposit ($50 or $100) to secure your time slot and design. It will be subtracted from the total at the end of your session.
Cancellations and reschedules must be made at least 1 day (24h) in advance. I understand that unexpected situations happen, but please inform me as soon as you can via email or DM.
Deposits will carry over to rescheduled appointment dates. If you provide no notice or do not show up to your session, your deposit will be forfeited and all future appointments are voided.
Payments accepted: cash or e-transfer. Please bring a flexible amount based on your quote if you are paying in cash.
Client Tips
Handpoking takes more time and patience, with a chance of appointments being longer than estimated. It is recommended to reserve some extra time after your appointment in case it is needed.
Wear appropriate clothing that provides easy access to the tattoo area, having layers is recommended.
Have a hearty meal 1-2 hours before your appointment and bring water to keep yourself hydrated. There are snacks and water available at the studio as well.
Ensure the skin that the tattoo will be done on is well moisturized leading up to the appointment. Shaving the area (if necessary) is very helpful and will reduce prep time.
All clients have the right to:
feel comfortable, respected, and safe throughout the entire process.
inform me of any adjustments in the design, placement, and any other details of your tattoo.
let me know if they need a break at any point during the tattoo.
ask any questions or voice any concerns.
Your experiences, thoughts, and concerns matter and are valid. It is a collaboration to create a positive and open environment!
I reserve the right to decline tattoo inquiries if I don’t feel that the project suits my style or capabilities.
I will not tattoo any designs I deem hateful, racist, discriminatory, or against my morals/beliefs.
I reserve the right to decline service if I feel unsafe or uncomfortable in any way.
You are welcome to contact me if you have any questions or concerns!
