Hi I’m MJ! On Instagram I’m @verygoodbadb0y. I work out of For Keeps Tattoo, a queer run shop in Brooklyn, NY.

Booking

To book an appointment, please fill out my Booking Form. I have two flash pages, one is original hand drawn flash, the other is comprised of non-original designs (including vintage art, realism, vintage textiles, portraits, vintage stickers, and fantasy art) that I would love to tattoo. Some flash is one-off, and some is repeatable. Just ask about the piece you like! I’m often happy to do black and grey instead of color if requested.

When you submit a Booking Form, you can expect to get an email back within 7 days, so keep an eye out.

Customs

I am open to custom work for the right project. I particularly enjoy tattooing vintage illustrations and stickers, shiny objects and realism, black and grey fantasy, floral and botanical. Lately I’ve been interested in tattooing black and grey portraits, larger scale botanical work, and ornamental pieces as well. If you have an idea you think I’d be the right fit for, send it my way! To submit a custom request, please fill out the Custom Form. I will respond by email to discuss your idea with you. If I decide it is something I can take on, you will pay a $75 deposit which will hold your appointment and go towards the cost of your tattoo.

Pricing

My current hourly rate is $200 / hour and I have a $250 minimum. My day rate is $850 for one client. You will not be charged more than the day rate when you book a full day (usually up to 6 hours). You can choose this option to get more than one small or medium piece, or it may be required if you book a large piece. I offer payment plans if needed.

I do have 3 sliding scale appointments each month, with a priority offered to QTPOC clients. My sliding scale rate is $100 - 200 / hour with a $200 minimum. If you would like to utilize this option, please let me know in your form. If the 3 sliding scale slots are already full for the month, it may be a slightly longer wait for an appointment.

Touch Ups / Color Tests

I am always happy to do a free color test for any POC clients if you have curiosity about how color heals on your skin. I’m also always happy to do a free touch-up on healed tattoos I’ve done for any client if you need it. Please fill out the Contact Form with the subject “Touch Up” or “Color Test” if you would like to book either, and I will fit you in.

Cancellations / Reschedules

When you book a tattoo, the deposit you make on your appointment is non-refundable. However, with 48 hours notice you will have the option to transfer your deposit once to another date. With less than 48 hours notice, you will be asked to make a new deposit for a new appointment. If you no show an appointment, I will not book you moving forward.
