How to Book your Japanese Tattoo
Step 1: Consultation & Design Discussion
We’ll review your ideas, placement, and references, then align on scale, flow, and meaning. This ensures your piece fits naturally and respects traditional structure.
Step 2: Custom Design & Composition
Your design is custom-made by Wes Holland to fit your body’s flow, and revealed on the day of your session for perfect composition and balance.
Step 3: Multi-Session Execution
Large-scale Japanese projects are built in stages. We start with linework, then shading, then color — creating strong, lasting structure and depth.
