Approach to tattooing & working with clients

Wilso schedules a consultation for each new piece in order to collaborate with clients to create a unique, custom concept for your tattoo, as well as understand what to expect throughout the whole process. Every piece is hand-drawn specifically for each client (no AI), employing one of many illustrative styles. He combines stenciling and free-hand drawing to place the tattoo and ensure the design flows well with the placement on the body.

Communication

For new clients, Instagram DM is the primary method of communication for inquiries, to discuss initial ideas and schedule the consultation. After the consultation, Wilso provides a cell phone number, which becomes the primary method of communication.

During the tattoo

Wilso is easy going and loves clients to feel comfortable while getting tattooed so they have a great experience. Whether that means chatting throughout or leaving you be to listen to music and lock in, just let him know your preference!
