To book a tattoo, please send an Instagram DM to @elizatorta or an email to elizatortatattoo@gmail.com with the following information:

  • Who you are.

    Name and pronouns, if comfortable sharing.

  • Which flash you are interested in, or custom design.

    Please note I will not under any circumstances tattoo a design made by another artist without their consent, and other artists should not replicate my designs without consent. In general, this is not accepted within any creative community. This is theft. Artists sometimes sell tattoo designs/flash at their own discretion, which I would then be happy to tattoo for you. If you see any of my flash that you would like to purchase for another artist to tattoo, please contact me directly. Clients are welcome to provide their own designs for me to tattoo, whether this be something they have drawn themselves, or something they have seen out in the world that they would like to make into a tattoo. If I am not able to make a tattoo from these references, I will do my best to direct you to an artist who will. In any case, please get in touch to discuss.

  • What size in centimetres you would like the tattoo to be.

    This can be a rough estimation, e.g. 6-8cm. For reference, palm size is around 7cm.

  • Where on your body you would like it to be.

    It is also useful to note if you have any other tattoos in the area and whether you would like the tattoo to layer over them or not.

  • Any extras, i.e. colour, texture.

    I primarily use Dynamic Triple Black ink, however I also have a few colours from different brands (yellow, green, blue, red, purple, brown) that are available. If you are interested in other colours please get in touch and I would be happy to purchase a new coloured ink and include this in the cost of the tattoo. I also offer free colour patch test sessions to ensure the inks will not cause an allergic reaction. These need to take place at least 1 month before your tattoo appointment, so please enquire sooner rather than later about this!

  • Your budget, if you have one.

    To book I require a non-refundable ยฃ50 deposit to cover studio rent, materials, and admin time that can be paid via bank transfer or PayPal. This goes towards the total cost of the tattoo with the remainder to be paid after the tattoo is done via bank transfer, PayPal, or in cash. My minimum charge is currently ยฃ75. Some smaller tattoos can be made at this cost. I understand that tattoos are a luxury item that not everyone can easily afford, therefore I offer flexible pricing. For example, a palm sized tattoo may be priced at ยฃ150, but I am happy to offer it at ยฃ125-150 for those who have a lower budget. This is not an offer to take advantage of my practice for a cheaper tattoo. Keep an eye out for flash days where I will offer specific flash at a lower than usual price.

    Please note, I may charge a higher deposit fee at some guest spots due to higher studio costs. It is always recommended if possible to get tattooed by me at my studio in Manchester, as I am able to be more flexible with price point and more likely to accommodate your budget. Read the FAQs for more information about deposits.

  • Which city you want to book for.

    I am primarily located in Manchester but sometimes travel around the UK, Europe, and to North America. To see where I'm going next, check the Home page of my website, or my Instagram.

  • Which month you are interested in booking for/when you are available.

    I usually book up to two months in advance at my studio in Manchester. For guest spots, my locations and dates are listed on the Home page of my website and on my Instagram.

It is useful to read the FAQs before booking a tattoo or enquiring with me directly as they may be able to provide crucial information for clients.

Please also take the time to look through my Portfolio and my Instagram to get an understanding of the style of tattoos I make.

Finally, I have a list of boundaries on the T&Cs page that I uphold for all clients, artists, and studios that I work with. It is strongly encouraged that you read through these before contacting me for any purpose.

Many thanks.
