SAFETY IN THE PANDEMIC PORTAL

living inside of the pandemic portal reminds us of the trust we put in others and of the boundaries we all deserve to set for ourselves. in the spirit of mutual care, i want to share with you what makes me feel safe and have included my own practices at the bottom of this page.

FOR COVID SAFETY, i am requiring that all of my clients are fully vaccinated + boosted. please be prepared to show proof of vaccination prior to or on the day of your appointment.

FOR mpxv (currently referred to as monkeypox) safety, please do not come to your appointment if you suspect you have any of the symptoms found
here. i will be happy to reschedule or refund you.

IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS OF A CONTAGEOUS VIRUS THAT COULD BE PASSED DURING YOUR APPOINTMENT. PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO LET ME KNOW AND WE WILL RESCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT.

testing within 48 hours of your appointment is not required but greatly appreciated.

if you are positive for or have symptoms for any of these, i love you. take good care of yourself.

in addition to being vaccinated, i ask that you practice responsible social distancing for at least two weeks leading up to your appointment. this includes WEARING A MASK, refraining from traveling out of state, eating indoors, and attending indoor gatherings. i also ask that you consider who is in your circle and whether or not their practices align with these expectations as well.

boundaries + reciprocity


MASKS, ALWAYS ♡

masks are required at all times. your mask must fit well and cover your nose and mouth. i will also wear a mask during our time together and while in the building, i will not be able to guarantee mask availability upon arrival as i travel between several shops.


if you choose to get tested before your visit please allow time to receive your test results before the day of your appointment. i also ask that you socially distance as much as possible during the two weeks leading up to your appointment date.

TESTING / SOCIAL DISTANCING


i will let you know ahead of time how long i estimate your tattoo will take. as always breaks are allowed. please let me know ahead of time if you feel comfortable chatting or if you prefer to keep it on the quiet side.
