Reviews
Absolute perfection! I traveled all the way to London for a concert and a hand-poked tattoo, and the experience couldn't have been better. Dorcas Lin did an incredible job. She was so friendly and welcoming from the start. What I loved most was how she custom-fit the design to the natural flow of my arm—it feels perfectly tailored to me. The whole process was genuinely enjoyable and relaxing. If you're looking for an amazing hand-poked piece, I can't recommend Dorcas enough! Will be looking to go back over for some more.
Had the best tattoo experience with Dorcas - she completely understood my design and got the placement and colour spot on. Thanks so much!!

Questions
How much is the deposit and when do I pay it?
To hold your spot, I usually require a £100 non refundable deposit. This deposit will be applied to the final cost of your tattoo and is paid by card through Tattoodo when you book the appointment. I offer financing options through Klarna, allowing you to spread out the deposit cost if needed.
What affects how long a tattoo takes?
Several factors influence the time needed: • Placement on the body • Color vs. black and grey work • Level of detail • Size of the piece • How your skin takes ink
When will I see the design? Can I request changes?
Custom Design: Quick sketch sent after deposit is received (usually within 1-2 weeks, depending on your appointment date) Refined draft sent 2 days before your session Final design sent 1 day before your session Please note: Additional changes beyond the original brief may incur extra charges Significant design changes may require a new appointment booking
What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel?
Minimum 7 days’ notice period First reschedule: free of charge Second reschedule: £50 fee Less than 7 days’ notice: deposit forfeited
What payment methods do you accept?
Mainly Cash. For the remaining balance after the deposit, you can pay securely through Tattoodo with all major credit and debit cards. I also offer financing options through Klarna, so that you can spread out your payment over time.
Do you offer consultations?
Yes, I offer In-person consultations in both London and Milton Keynes.
Can I get any design I want?
I’ll work with your ideas but add my own style to create something unique. If I think a design won’t work well as a tattoo, I’ll let you know and suggest better options.
