Bold. Traditional. Timeless.
One-of-one flash and custom tattoos rooted in strong lines and classic imagery.
About the artist
Kaarina's a Seattle native turned Los Angeles tattooer. She grew up in a family colored with tattoos, and her love for the craft started early. That lifelong fascination has grown into a passion for bold, traditional, and timeless tattoos rooted in strong lines and classic imagery.
Whether it's a flash banger or a custom piece, her focus is always on creating work that holds up for life — while fostering a safe, welcoming space for women and all people to get tattooed.

Before you ask
How do the flash drops work?
I release 10–20 designs at a time. Each is one-of-one — once it's claimed, it's retired and won't be tattooed again.
Do you take custom work?
[Yes/limited — artist's policy. What you'll take on, what you won't.]
How do deposits work?
A deposit holds your appointment. Right now I arrange it with you directly after you request a booking — online card deposits (and Afterpay for larger pieces) are coming soon.
How should I prepare?
Eat first, hydrate, wear clothes that expose the placement. No numbing cream unless we discussed it. 18+, bring a valid ID.
How much does it hurt?
[Kaarina to fill in — realistic pain expectations, what factors change sensation (placement, size, duration), how she describes the feeling, any numbing stance.]
How do I take care of it afterward?
[Kaarina to fill in — aftercare basics: cleaning, moisturizing, healing timeline, what to avoid, when to reach out if something looks wrong.]
How does pricing work?
[Kaarina to fill in — how she quotes (piece price vs. hourly), what a quote includes, factors that affect cost, whether quotes are fixed or estimates.]
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
[Kaarina to fill in — cancellation window, rescheduling policy, what happens to the deposit in each case, how much notice she needs.]
Can I bring a friend?
[Kaarina to fill in — yes/no/limited, how many people, any rules about who can stay, why she has that policy.]
