 FAQs

  • Small tattoos (anything that can be done in 30 min) are $120 flat.

    For custom tattoos, it depends on the artist, size, details of the design, and placements. If you want a quote, you can either book a free consultation, or send us an email.

    In your email, please include: subject, size, placement on the body, detail, etc

  • Our artists have the flexibility to set their own schedules, so appointments are recommended to ensure availability. For custom pieces, we ask that you book at least 3 days in advance to give the artist time to design your tattoo. Walk-ins are welcome, but we encourage you to call ahead to confirm an artist is available.

  • Tips are not mandatory or expected at our shop, but they’re always appreciated as a kind gesture for your artist’s effort and dedication.

  • It takes 2-3 weeks to “heal,” but it takes months for the skin to fully regenerate. 

  • We recommend that you eat well before you come in, and remember to stay hydrated. If you start to feel woozy, have some sweet snack. Sugar is your friend in this situation.

    It’s best to avoid drinking alcohol before your appointment. Alcohol can increase bleeding for up to 24 hours. Blood also dilutes our pigments, affecting both the appearance of your tattoo as well as the healing process. Remember to stay calm and cool, you’re in good hands. There’s nothing to stress over—it’s just a tattoo! 

  • We accept a variety of payment methods, including cash, debit, credit, and e-transfers
