Q&A



How do I book a session?

 Signing up for my newsletter is best for finding out about bookings and events.  Follow me on all social media platforms for updates about bookings, events and tours.



What kind of tattoos do you do?

I tattoo a lot of fine line/bold designs predominately floral theme. I also love to do concepts of human portraits, animals, taxidermy, etc.  I am solely a coil and rotary machine artist, and I prefer to focus on my flash art.  I also allow several custom session each month, usually accepting ideas that are within my capabilities.


How far in advance should I book my session?

I normally book 2 months in advance unless I have travel plans - I will book sessions a shorter amount of time in advance. 
If you are travelling to me, I try to accommodate based on your travel schedule. I suggest contacting me 2-3 months in advance via email just to be sure of my availability or waiting for my books to open. 


What are your rates?

Hourly Rate: $250 CAD + HST
Non-refundable deposit: starting at $250 CAD via e-transfer
*Total cost of tattoo depends on the size

  • Deposits are to be sent via e-transfer to humblebeetattoo@gmail.com (if a password is required, please make it: tattoo)
  • The time starts from the moment the design discussion begins and includes drawing time and tattooing.
  • I offer two types of tattoo sessions: Half day for 3.5 hours minimum OR full day/tap out sessions 7.5 hours total.
  • Please be prepared to pay the full hour estimation.  Smaller tattoos may not be as costly.
  • Final payments must be made in-person and on the same day of the tattoo session.
  • If you would still like to tip I ask that you tip via cash!  Tips are dependent on the individual receiving the service (15-20% is accepted).

I offer a few sliding scale rate sessions each month for single black identifying mothers/parents only* with children under the age of 18! Please let me know via the booking form when applying.

At this time, I am not taking on any of the following concepts:

Some personal facts about me

  • I identify as a queer black woman, my pronouns are she/her/they/them. 
  • I was born in the east coast of Canada, Newfoundland, and have been living in Toronto since 1999. I hope one day to own a home in Barbados.  
  • I am a mother of two beautiful children, and I have a black cat named Honey.
  • Also a mother to all things green, I love my orchids and pothos plants!
  • My favourite tattoo(s) are the custom patterns on my feet from Pattern Recognition and my most painful tattoo(s) are my knee cap and spine!
  • I am obsessed with travelling, mostly for leisure and life experience. My favourite places in the world (so far) are Tulum, Kyoto, Barbados and Paris. I hope to visit Egypt, Morocco, Italy, Bali, Costa Rica, Panama, and more!
  • I listen to Soca and Afro Beats every day, but Beyonce is the GOAT. And I take pride in playing mas in Crop Over or Caribana every summer! I hope to visit Trinidad and St.Lucia for Carnival. 
  • I spend a lot of my time drawing while watching documentaries and (guilty pleasure) reality television.
  • I’m always asking people about their favourite places to eat, podcasts and latest book to read!
