Q: How much does it cost to get a tattoo?
A: The cost of tattoos can very significantly depending on a variety of factors associated with your project. Each of our artists charge differently and may charge either a flat rate, or by the hour. You will want to discuss budget and pricing during your consultation.
Q: Do you accept walk-ins? Do I need to make an appointment?
A: We do not accept walk-ins. Our artists are in high demand and are often booked well in advance. We work by appointment only. If you are interested in booking, please check out our artists’ portfolios here.
Q: Do you have a studio minimum?
A: Our studio minimum is $150. Individual artists may charge a different individually set minimum.
Q: How old do I have to be to get tattooed?
A: We will not tattoo anyone under the age of 18. You must have a valid, government issued ID, such as a license or passport. We are not able to accept any temporary, paper, or photos of an ID.
Q: How do I decide which artist to be tattooed by?
A: This is always a tough question especially for those new to being tattooed. We have set up an additional page on our website with information on how to select the best tattoo artist for your project. Check it out here.
Q: How should I prepare for my tattoo appointment?
A: Be well rested, hydrated, and eat a nourishing meal. Be dressed in a manner that allows the artist to access the area that is being tattooed, and makes you comfortable. Be showered/bathed; you will be working in close quarters with the artist. Be aware of upcoming life events, and how the healing of your tattoo might be affected by them.
Q: What should/can I bring with me?
A: Make sure to bring your ID, as we will not be able to tattoo you without it. Bring whatever makes you comfortable! Within reason, of course. If you need a distraction such as music or movies, you can bring your small devices, just bring some headphones as we don't want to distract other clients, or artists working. You could bring reading material or your favorite stuffed animal! Bring a small snack and/or drink; although you won't be able to eat in the tattoo booths themselves, you are more than welcome to take a break.
Q: Can I bring a friend?
A: At the current time we are asking everyone to come alone for appointments. Due to the continued pandemic, we are unable to accommodate additional guests within the studio.
Q: Do I need to leave a deposit?
A: We require a non refundable booking fee to secure your tattoo appointment. Our booking fee starts at $100. We often require a larger amount for tattoos that will require multiple sessions, or require a more complex drawing. Keep in mind that larger deposits are non refundable as well. The required booking fee secures your appointment, and compensates he artist’s time spent on the preparation and drawing of your tattoo.
Q: If i need to reschedule will I lose my deposit?
A: We require at least 48 hours notice for rescheduling appointments. This will allow you to keep the deposit for your tattoo, and provide our artists with enough time to fill the available opening in their schedule. If you do not provide 48 hours notice, if you do not show up for your appointment, or if you cancel your appointment without rescheduling, you will forfeit your deposit to the artist. If you reschedule multiple times, your artist may require an additional re-booking fee.
Q: How do I take care of my tattoo?
A: We will we provide you detailed instructions when we complete your tattoo, both verbally and in writing. We also have all of our aftercare instructions available here for your convenience.
Q: Are ya’ll players?
A: Nah, we just crush a lot.
