1. How do I book an appointment?

You can book an appointment through our online booking form, by calling us directly, or by visiting the studio in person. A deposit may be required to secure your spot.

2. Do I need to schedule a consultation first?

For large or custom pieces, yes — consultations help us understand your ideas, placement preferences, and design details. Smaller tattoos may not require a consult.

3. How much does a tattoo cost?

Prices vary depending on size, detail, and placement. We offer both hourly rates and flat-rate pricing for smaller designs. We’re happy to give estimates during your consultation or when you send us your design ideas.

4. Is there a deposit? Is it refundable?

Yes, we require a non-refundable deposit to reserve your appointment. This goes toward the final cost of your tattoo. Deposits are not refunded for no-shows or cancellations without at least 48 hours’ notice.

5. Do you accept walk-ins?

Yes, but availability is limited. Walk-ins are handled on a first-come, first-served basis. Feel free to call ahead to check availability.

6. Does getting a tattoo hurt?

Pain levels vary depending on the individual and placement. Most people describe it as uncomfortable but manageable. Our artists do their best to keep you comfortable throughout the session.

7. What should I do before my appointment?

• Eat a good meal beforehand

• Stay hydrated

• Avoid alcohol and blood thinners for 24 hours

• Get a good night’s sleep

• Wear comfortable clothing that gives access to the tattoo area

8. Can I bring a friend?

You can bring one support person, but we ask that they remain respectful and quiet in the studio. No children or pets are allowed for safety reasons.

9. What’s the aftercare process?

We’ll give you detailed aftercare instructions, but generally:

• Keep the tattoo clean and moisturized

• Avoid direct sunlight, swimming, and heavy sweating

• Don’t pick or scratch the area

• Follow our care guidelines for the best healing results

10. What if I need to reschedule?

We understand that things come up. Please give us at least 48 hours’ notice to reschedule your appointment without losing your deposit.

11. Do you do cover-ups or touch-ups?

Yes! We specialize in cover-ups and are happy to assess your existing tattoo. We also offer free or low-cost touch-ups within a certain timeframe (usually 1–3 months).

12. Do you tattoo minors?

We only tattoo clients who are 18 years or older with valid government-issued ID. No exceptions, even with parental consent.
