To ensure the best experience working with Dom, please make sure your tattoo concept aligns with the style showcased in his portfolio, either here or on Instagram. Dom specializes in detailed realism tattoos and enjoys creating anime-inspired designs as well.

Dom does not tattoo in colour or do coverups.

The more details you can provide about your idea, the more personalized your tattoo will be. If you're unsure of a specific concept, feel free to share a few of Dom's past works that resonate with you. He can use those as inspiration to create something uniquely tailored to you.

Once you've completed the form below, Dom will review your request and share his thoughts on your design. For larger projects, he offers a complimentary in-person consultation at the studio or a video call to discuss the details. He’ll also provide his availability and instructions on how to make a deposit.

After the deposit is received, your appointment will be secured in Dom’s calendar. He will then share additional information about the studio and the design process to ensure you're fully prepared.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. These policies ensure that Dom can provide the highest level of artistry and professionalism for each client.

Dom works out of a private studio, Seventh Day, located in Parnell, Auckland. The exact address will be provided upon confirmation of your booking.

Design Process:
Approximately two weeks before your appointment, Dom will begin creating your tattoo design. This timeline allows for flexibility, as some clients may adjust their design ideas, placement preferences, or need to reschedule. For this reason, designs are not finalized or shared electronically before the appointment. Instead, you’ll review the design with Dom on the day of your session, ensuring it meets your vision. If adjustments are needed, Dom will collaborate with you to refine the design on the spot.

Pre-Session Preparation:
Two weeks before your session, Dom will send you a checklist with important information, including what to bring and a recommended aftercare cream to purchase in advance.

Session Details:

• Sessions typically begin at 8:00 AM.

• Each session includes a 30-minute lunch break.

• Payment is due at the end of the session, once the tattoo is complete and photographs have been taken.

No-Show and Cancellation Policy:
If you fail to attend your appointment without prior notice, your deposit will be forfeited, and you will not be permitted to book with Dom again.

By adhering to this process, Dom ensures a professional, seamless, and tailored experience for every client.
