The cost of your tattoo will depend on the size, placement and style. This information will determine how long the tattoo will take.
Zoazy will always provide you with a quote as long as you can provide the above.
Some pre-drawn flash designs are pre-priced but if you want changes to these designs (such as a larger size) this can effect the price.

Bring snacks and a drink, especially for longer sessions
Try to arrive relaxed and on time, and avoid intense workouts right before your appointment

Right After Your Appointment
Your tattoo will be covered with cling film or wrap
Leave it on for the time I recommend
This protects the tattoo during the first few hours
First Clean (Same Day)
Wash your hands before touching the tattoo
Remove the cling or wrap gently
Clean with lukewarm water and mild, fragrance-free soap
Use clean hands only and pat with dry paper towels — don’t rub
If Using Second Skin
Some tattoos are covered with a medical-grade adhesive film called second skin
If applied, it can be left on for up to 5 days unless advised otherwise
Fluid build-up underneath is normal
Keep it clean and dry; avoid soaking and heavy sweating
If it lifts, leaks, or irritates the skin, remove it and start normal aftercare
First Few Days (Days 1–4)
Wash gently 1–2 times daily once uncovered
Apply a thin layer of recommended aftercare product
Mild redness, warmth, and tenderness are normal
Wear loose, clean clothing
Peeling & Itching (Days 4–14)
Flaking or peeling is normal
Don’t scratch, pick, or peel
Continue gentle washing and moisturising as advised
What to Avoid
No swimming, baths, hot tubs, or soaking
Avoid direct sun and tanning beds
Skip heavy sweating, friction, and tight clothing
Don’t use scented or unapproved products
Healing From the Inside
Stay hydrated and eat well
Get plenty of rest
Avoid excessive alcohol
Healing takes time — be patient
Long-Term Care

Always use sunscreen to prevent fading

Zoazy will get back to you within 24 hours about your tattoo booking UNLESS shes on a holiday.

I personally don’t advise using numbing cream before you get tattooed. I have never used one so I’m unable to suggest a reputable brand.
Numbing cream can effect the texture of your skin and the outcome of the tattoo. So, for your safety and tattoo results, I don’t recommend using it before your tattoo with me.
If you cannot be tattooed without the use of the numbing cream you must state this in your booking form to ensure we discuss this prior to an appointment.
-
Though the treatment room is small zoazy can accommodate one guest if you need support on the day.
Please don’t come with lots of people as they will not all fit in the room whilst you are being tattooed.
