Designs Flash

Nous travaillons généralement selon le principe du premier arrivé, premier servi.

Toutefois, en raison des contraintes de temps, les inscriptions spontanées sont généralement plus adaptées à des tatouages simples qu'à des motifs complexes ou de grande taille nécessitant une planification approfondie.
