FAQ
Every skin tone, body shape, gender, sexuality – everybody is always welcome!
I’m currently based near Finsbury Park / Archway station:
465a Hornsey Road, Islington, London N19 4DR
How old do I need to be?
You must be 18 or over to get tattooed, no exceptions. This is UK law. Please bring a valid photo ID to your appointment.
How do I book?
I open bookings quarterly and always announce it on my Instagram & Tiktok: @nothingsrs.
When books open, you'll find a booking form linked in my bio.
Please only apply via the form during open periods —You can also sign up to my broadcast channel via Instagram to skip the wait and jump on a cancellation slot. I post updates and cancellations over there.
Can I get a walk-in or message you directly for bookings?
No, sorry! I only take bookings via the official form during the open periods. I don’t book through DMs on different platforms as it can get quite difficult to monitor every social all the time.
I manage all bookings and business by myself so this way I can make sure I don’t miss anyone — thank you for your patience! I truly appreciate it!
Where are you based?
I tattoo from a cosy private studio in North London, near Finsbury Park / Archway (N19).
When are you open?
I work Tuesday to Friday during the day. I currently don’t offer evenings or weekends.
Can I book more than one tattoo at once?
Yes! You’re welcome to book in for multiple tattoos in the same session. Just make sure to list all your ideas clearly in the form so I can estimate the right amount of time. I will also give you a bundle price so you won't be charged individually for each tattoo. This is great especially for teeny-tiny tattoos!
Can I see the design beforehand?
I prepare one design for the day of your appointment. We’ll have a quick consultation when you arrive, and I’m always happy to amend the design, as long as they translate well into a tattoo. If you decide on a completely different idea, I may not be able to make it work on the day – so please let me know in advance if you’re having second thoughts. Unfortunately, I don’t send designs before the appointment. It’s easier to go through changes if needed in person and this way also secures my artwork – thank you for understanding!
Can I book a matching tattoo or a double appointment?
If you’re getting a tattoo with a friend — whether matching or separate small ones — please submit one booking form with both of your names and tattoo ideas. That way, I can coordinate it as one double session and make sure you’re booked together.
What kind of tattoos do you do?
I specialise in fine line tattoos — botanical, quirky, symbolic, minimal pieces.
I do both custom designs and flash pieces. Please note that I don’t replicate other artists' work or tattoos – I’m always happy to create something original and personal for you.
If you’re hoping to get a tattoo based on someone else’s artwork, I’ll need written permission from the original artist before we can proceed.
I mainly work in black and grey. A small pop of colour or coloured line work (red, blue, brown) is sometimes possible — mention it in your form and I’ll let you know if it’s doable.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on the size and design.
My minimum charge is £100 to cover the cost of materials. Prices start from that.
I do not have an hourly rate, I give set prices. Once I’ve reviewed your form, I’ll send you a quote and a suggested time slot.
I require a non-refundable deposit to secure your booking — this will go toward the final price.If you have a specific budget in mind, I’m more than happy to design something that fits – just let me know!
How do deposits and rescheduling work?
To confirm your booking, I’ll ask for a deposit that goes toward the final price. This is non-refundable and valid for 6 months.If you need to reschedule, please give me at least 48 hours’ notice – otherwise, the deposit will forfeit. If you’re unable to attend a rescheduled appointment, a new deposit will be required. Deposits can be paid in person or via PayPal. (No bank transfers, sorry!)
Do you offer touch-ups?
Yes! I offer one free touch-up within the first year– you can book this at any time, no need to wait until my books are open. After 12 months, a small fee applies for touch-ups.
* You do not always need a touch up, only if certain areas dropped out during the healing*
Can I get tattooed if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?
Absolutely not, it’s never safe to get tattooed during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding for several reasons.
I kindly ask you to wait until you're no longer nursing. Tattooing during this time carries risks, and I wouldn't take any of those.
Are there any placements you don’t tattoo?
Yes — I don’t tattoo certain placements. This is usually because these spots don’t heal well, especially with fine delicate work, or I simply don’t feel comfortable tattooing them. Please keep this in mind when submitting your idea.

What if I’ve never had a tattoo before?
That’s absolutely fine! I’ll talk you through everything.
Please come well-rested, have a good meal beforehand, and wear loose, dark clothes that won’t matter if they might get stained.Feel free to bring a sugary drink or snack — or anything that helps you to distract if needed!
Please make sure to arrive on time — or a little early if you can.
I work to a very tight schedule, and being late doesn’t just affect your session — it can impact the rest of my day and other clients too.
If you're more than 20 mins late, I won’t be able to tattoo you, and in that case, a new deposit would be required to rebook.
Thanks for understanding — it really helps everything run smoothly!
Please take a moment to read the aftercare instructions before your appointment – I’ll also go over the main points with you on the day.
Thanks so much for reading though – I really look forward to meeting you and create something wonderful for you! :)
