These pieces may include: specific words or phrases, placement on the body, or curated work focused on social media content. These pieces are offered at a lower rate than custom work to allow for artistic freedom and creative control over the piece and desired outcome.

*Noeko does her best to give accurate time estimates. Factors such as size, style, and pain tolerance can affect the length of your session and whether additional sessions may be needed to finish your piece.
Before Your Appointment
Please bring plenty of water and eat a good meal the night before and morning of your appointment. The studio can get chilly so it is recommended to bring something with sleeves. There is a mini fridge and microwave available in the studio.
There is a ring camera installed in the studio for the safety of everyone during your session. This camera records both audio and video.
Can I bring someone with me?
Coming alone is recommended as it is a small space, but you are always allowed one person to attend with you. Please inform Noeko ahead of time if you will be bringing someone.
Can I use numbing cream?
Please DO NOT use any type of numbing related products. The FDA has not approved these products. If you arrive to your appointment with these products applied, you will be sent home and forfeit your deposit.
How should I care for my new tattoo?
You will receive a card with aftercare instructions at the end of your appointment. To prepare purchase a fragrance free antibacterial soap such as gold Dial and unscented lotion like Aveeno or Lubriderm. Tylenol and an ice pack can help with swelling after your session.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Please wear something that makes you feel comfortable while keeping in mind the area that will be tattooed. If you are being tattooed in an area where you need to be shirtless pasties are available if necessary. Button down flannels or zip up hoodies work well so you can be as covered as possible while still allowing Noeko to tattoo in the desired area. For hips, bottoms, upper legs etc. bikini bottoms are a great choice if they can be untied on one side at a time.
Tipping?!?!
Tipping is always graciously accepted but is never mandatory.
Touch-ups
As living organisms, there are many factors that can affect the healing of your tattoo. One touch up session is included in the cost of your session after 8 weeks and within one year of your appointment. If you have a multi-session piece, a touch up session will be done after the completion of the entire piece. If your tattoo is determined to have healed poorly due improper aftercare Noeko reserves the right to charge a fee for a touch-up session.
