1. Avoid alcohol, energy drinks, coffee, and blood thinners. These substances can increase bleeding and affect the quality of your tattoo.

2. Make sure to get a good rest and a good night’s sleep. Tattoos can be stressful for the body, and it’s harder to endure the pain when you’re fatigued.

3. If there is hair growing in the area where you’ll be getting your tattoo, it’s recommended to carefully shave it off. It’s best to do this the evening before the tattoo to avoid irritation. Also, take a shower before your session.

4. Choose comfortable clothing to wear during the session, and you may want to bring a change of clothes as well. It’s better to choose something that you don’t mind getting ink or transfer on since they can be difficult to wash off.

5. It’s advisable to have a nutritious meal before your session, especially if it’s going to be a long one.

P.S. It’s acceptable to have one person as a support companion to look on, or hold your hand. However, they should leave before the actual tattooing begins.

Note: As a responsible tattoo artist, I don’t use local anesthetics during the tattooing process.

While some individuals may desire pain relief, it’s important to note that using local anesthetics during a tattoo can carry potential risks, including anaphylactic shock and adverse skin reactions.
