Book early
If you are traveling, send your dates as soon as possible. It gives the artist time to confirm scope, prep artwork, and avoid rushing a piece into a short vacation window.
Visitors
Getting a tattoo while visiting Maui takes a little timing.
Planning a tattoo while visiting Maui? Learn how to time your appointment around beach days, sun exposure, ocean plans, travel, and aftercare.
Plan around the ocean
Fresh tattoos should not be soaked in the ocean, pools, hot tubs, or long showers. If beach time is a major part of the trip, schedule the tattoo near the end.
Sun and clothing
Direct sun, tight clothing, heavy sweating, and sand can irritate a fresh tattoo. Choose placement and timing with the rest of your itinerary in mind.
