What to send before your tattoo consultation.

Start with the meaning

Explain what the tattoo should carry for you. It can begin with a person, memory, symbol, visual atmosphere or simply an idea you have not yet been able to draw.

If certain elements are essential, identify them. It is equally useful to say what you do not want included.

Include the practical details

Placement and scale affect what a design can hold. A quick, well-lit photograph of the area can help Sephora consider flow and proportion before the appointment.

• Preferred body placement
• Approximate size in centimetres
• Whether the area has existing tattoos or scars
• Reference images and what you like about each one
• Any timing considerations you would like to discuss

The next step, and your quote

After your initial message, Sephora can discuss the idea and any details needed to assess it. Ask about a quote and suitable appointment options; sending an enquiry does not reserve an appointment.

A custom tattoo is quoted for its size, placement, detail and scope. Include your budget so you can discuss a suitable approach. Confirm the design process, session plan, price and any deposit or payment terms directly with Sephora before booking.

Planning your visit

Tattoo sessions are held by appointment in San Ġwann, Malta. The exact studio details are confirmed when your booking is arranged.

If you are visiting Malta, include your travel dates and any timing constraints in your first message. Ask about availability and preparation before making plans around an appointment.

References are a direction, not a template

References help communicate subject, mood, line quality or contrast. Sephora uses them to understand the direction and then develops an original composition for the person who will wear it.

Send the information through WhatsApp and Sephora will respond with the appropriate next step for the project.
