A $50 non-refundable deposit is required to book an appointment. Please send to @chanmeetattoo on Venmo; for the reason, put the date of your appointment. I.e “7/15”. The deposit goes towards the final cost of the tattoo! Failure to send a deposit forfeits your appointment.
I only accept cash payments effective January 2025. I will provide a price estimate before your appointment, please ask if you are unsure. If significant changes are made the day of your appointment, price differences can be sent on Venmo.
Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours in advance. Please let me know if you are running late to your appointment. If I don’t hear from you within 15 mins of the start time, your appointment will be canceled. I understand things happen and I am very flexible, please just communicate! No shows will not be allowed to schedule future appointments.
My work days are Thursdays-Sundays. Any correspondence about tattoos will be on those days, via email or text. I do not prefer Instagram DM’s, as messages often get lost with technical issues.
Please contact me about your custom tattoo idea and include: subject matter, size, placement, style preference, reference photos. The more info, the better!
I take walk-in appointments Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays 1-6pm. Text me for availability!

Second skin bandage- keep on for at least 24 hours. You may leave it on for up to 3 or 4 days. It is normal for ink and plasma to pool inside of the bandage. Remove under warm running water and wash with a fragrance free liquid soap (I personally use Dial Liquid Gold Soap). Pat dry with a clean paper towel. Apply a thin layer of fragrance free lotion (I like Lubriderm. Aquafor is okay so long as it is used sparingly).
Standard soaking bandage- keep on for at least a few hours, ideally overnight. Wash and moisturize as described above.
Avoid sun exposure to the tattooed area. Cover tattoo with loose clothing. No sunscreen or fragrance products until the tattoo is fully healed.
Do not soak the tattoo in water, no baths or swimming for at least two weeks (a second skin bandage is not a proper substitute).
Keep your tattoo clean, wash and moisturize twice a day for two weeks post appointment.
As tattoos heal they become dry, flaky, and scabby. Do not pick the tattoo as it can majorly affect the healing process and cause ink fall out.
Some tattoos take longer than others to heal depending on placement, size, and ink saturation. It's important to monitor your tattoo and continue proper aftercare until it is completely healed.
