I work at Baohaus Collective, a private studio on unceded First Nations territory (Downtown, Vancouver, Canada).

I aim to provide a safe and comfortable experience for clients of all skin tones, gender/sexual identities, and body types. If you like my designs but have any hesitations about how it might look on you, get in touch and we can chat (email me: spookyskeletonwizard@gmail.com).

The studio is a shared space, if privacy is a concern please let me know via the booking form.

There are three steps from street level to the building interior; I am happy to accommodate you in an accessible space if you let me know in my booking form.

You must be 18 years or older to receive a tattoo from me. No exceptions.

pricing

I will provide a quote for a project once we have figured out the design and placement details. My flash tattoos are generally priced by size/vibe: a small linework tattoo is ~$100,a tattoo is ~$250, a quarter limb (outer forearm, back of calf) is ~$500, bigger projects scale up from there. There are a whole bunch of factors that impact the cost of each individual tattoo. My estimates are based on my hourly rate of $200/hr.

Custom tattoos vary more in pricing. For custom designs, I charge a $50 drawing fee. This applies to both predrawn customs, and freehand drawn onto your skin the day of tattooing. For predrawn customs, I may charge additional drawing fees if the design is really big, or there are sufficient revisions. For freehand, I basically just charge that $50. I love doing freehand and your trust is appreciated.

Please let me know if you have a budget! That may be a hard figure (I have $400 to spend on a tattoo), or preferred range (I’d like to pay between $250-300). We can make adjustments to the project to respect your budget.

When booking a tattoo, I will request a $50 CAD deposit to confirm the time/date. For larger designs, or multiple designs, the deposit may be more. This deposit is taken out of the final cost; for example, if the session costs $250, you will pay the $50 deposit upon booking, and $200 at the appointment.
