How much will it hurt?

No one knows exactly but you. Everyone experiences pain differently, and pain sensitivity varies across the body. What’s more important is your personal tolerance for pain.
Most clients find tattoos less painful than they thought. Many liken the sensation to a cat scratch. Uncomfortable, but bearable. A few even like the sensation, but a distraction usually helps.

What is the process?

  1. Book an appointment on the calendar and skip to step 3 -or- Use the contact form to get our attention.
  2. We reach out to you confirming availability.
    • Meet to discuss details, get pricing, and book. (See: Consultations)

Can I see the design to make sure I like it?

Yes! Please ask your artist to schedule a review before your appointment. (We don’t send sketches/stencils by text or email. Please come in person to preview, make edits/suggestions, etc.) Additionally, please keep in mind that your artist is also managing art for other clients and may need lead time appropriate for their schedule.

  • Bring accessible clothes for the tattoo body location.
  • Being well-rested helps.

Can I bring my Friends?

Bring one friend, a good one that will take pictures for you, put on something for you to watch, or hold your hand. Additional friends may have to wait outside the tattoo area.

Can I get a tattoo if I’m under 18?

Yes, for 16 and older. Your parent/guardian must bring matching identification and be present for the tattoo session.

Do you do touch-ups?

When your tattoo is finished healing (about 2 weeks) you can ask your artist for a touch-up on work they’ve done for you. Everyone heals differently, and sometimes your design needs a second pass to catch what may have healed a little too well. Touch-ups and scheduling are done at the artist’s discretion. If you’re sunburned because you went to the beach immediately after your tattoo, your artist may charge for the time. Otherwise, a simple touch-up is generally free if requested within 2-4 weeks after your tattoo session. Additional touch-ups and touch-up requests more than a month after your session may have cost a layout fee ($40) or an hourly rate (variable.)

Touch-ups on work done by artists from other shops is performed for your artist’s standard rate. See their pages for details.
