Question 1

Do tattoos hurt?

There will be some discomfort, but pain depends entirely on the individual. Official Ink offers Officially Numb — a topical anaesthetic you can apply before your session to minimize pain significantly.

A session can take as little as 30 minutes for small pieces or span multiple days for larger work. Size, detail, and placement all factor in. Book a consultation for an accurate estimate.
