    How to Prepare for Your Tattoo Appointment


    Preparation makes a huge difference in how your tattoo looks and heals. Here’s how to get ready for your appointment at Catharsis Body Art.

    The Night Before
    Stay hydrated
    Eat a balanced meal — low blood sugar leads to dizziness
    Get a full night’s rest
    What to Bring
    ID and payment method
    Snacks and water if it’s a long session
    Comfortable clothing that gives your artist access to the area being tattooed
    Avoid Beforehand
    Alcohol, aspirin, and caffeine thin the blood — skip them at least 24 hours prior.

    During Your Session
    Relax. Trust your artist. Your comfort and communication are key.
