Hi friends — it’s Mandi from Wrapped in Plastic INK, your Orange County tattoo artist.
October is here, and I’ve got a few fun updates for you: a new referral program, fresh Halloween flash, and your reminder about the monthly tattoo giveaway.
✨ The Main Event: Tattoo Referral Program! Bring a friend, earn tattoo credit. It’s that simple.
How it works
You get tattooed by me.
Your friend books and mentions your name.
After their session is complete, you earn referral credit toward your next session. No limits — stack away.
🎃 Halloween Flash (on a flight to Hawaii!)
This blog post is a little late, but I finally found some time to knock out these designs I've been wanting to do. Nothing like a 5 hour flight to get get some drawing done ✅ Seasonal, spooky, weird — it’s live and ready to book. Flash is repeatable, so you can grab a favorite now or later.
🏆 September Giveaway Winner
Big congrats to Amanda Allen — you’re September’s flash tattoo winner (up to 2 hours) at my Costa Mesa studio! Didn’t win this time? You’re still in for next month if you’re on the list.
🌿 Healed Tattoo Spotlight
I love showing how tattoos settle and hold detail over time. Want to be featured? Moisturize, wipe the extra, shoot a clear straight-on pic in good light, and send it my way. Pics coming soon!
🖤 Studio Update
I’m tattooing Oahu and Maui in October and booking for Orange County in November. Whether you’re feeling a quick flash design or planning something custom, I would love to close out the year with some cool artwork. I've already got some badass projects lined up for November... can't wait to show them off!
💧 Tattoo Tip of the Month
Fall = dry air. Keep tattoos happy with unscented lotion or tattoo balm twice daily for happy skin, crisp lines, and richer color. Let's all make a pledge to drink more water!
🕸️ Thanks for Reading
Thanks for supporting a local, independent Orange County tattoo artist. Refer a friend, book your spot, and peek the Halloween flash — can’t wait to see you.
