At Kapwa Tattoo Studio, the process may vary depending on the artist. Some artists prefer to meet days before the tattoo session to discuss details either in person or via a video call. This allows you to talk about your design ideas, placement preferences, and any concerns you may have in advance. For other artists, the consultation happens on the day of the tattoo session. They use this time to finalize the design with you, discuss any last-minute changes, and ensure you feel comfortable and confident before starting the tattoo. This approach ensures that your tattoo experience at Kapwa Tattoo Studio is personalized and meets your expectations.
