FAQs

1. What should I expect during my first tattoo session?

If this is your first tattoo, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! You’ll start by chatting with your artist about the design and placement. Once everything is set, they’ll prep the stencil, and then it’s time to start inking! Depending on your tattoo, it can take anywhere from an hour to several hours. Feel free to ask any questions throughout the process — we want you to feel comfortable!

2. How much will my tattoo cost?

The cost of a tattoo depends on things like size, design complexity, and the area of your body. We can give you an estimate during your consultation. Our artists charge either by the hour or for the entire design, and a deposit is required to book your appointment.

3. How should I prepare for my tattoo appointment?

• Rest up the night before and eat a good meal before your session.

• Avoid alcohol or any blood thinners beforehand.

• Wear comfy clothes that allow easy access to the area being tattooed.

• Bring an ID to confirm your age (you’ll need to be 18+). And remember, if you have any questions or concerns, just let us know!

4. How do I take care of my new tattoo?

After your tattoo, proper care is key to helping it heal well:

• Gently wash it with mild soap and water.

• Apply a thin layer of the recommended ointment.

• Avoid scratching or picking at it (we know it’s tempting, but resist!).

• Stay out of the sun, and skip pools and hot tubs while it heals. Follow the aftercare instructions your artist gives you to keep your tattoo looking fresh.

5. How long will my tattoo take to heal?

Tattoos typically heal in 2-4 weeks. But even after the surface heals, your skin might still be repairing deeper layers for a while. Once the healing’s done, keep it moisturized and protected from the sun to maintain its vibrancy.

6. Can I get a tattoo while pregnant or breastfeeding?

It’s best to hold off on getting a tattoo while pregnant or breastfeeding. Hormonal changes can affect the healing process, and it’s always a good idea to consult with your doctor before making any decisions.

7. Do you offer custom designs?

Absolutely! We love creating custom tattoos. If you have an idea in mind, bring your thoughts, references, or inspirations, and we’ll work together to bring your vision to life. It’s all about making something personal and meaningful for you!

8. What if I want to change or cover up an existing tattoo?

No problem! We do a lot of cover-ups and redesigns. Our artists will assess your current tattoo and collaborate with you to create a fresh design that works with or covers the old one.

9. Are tattoos safe?

Yes! Tattoos are safe when done by a professional who follows strict hygiene practices. We make sure everything is sterilized, and we use high-quality inks to ensure a safe and smooth experience. If you have any questions about cleanliness, feel free to ask!

10. Can I bring a friend to my appointment?

You’re welcome to bring a friend for support, but we do keep the studio calm and focused to make sure everyone’s comfortable. If you need anyone with you during your appointment, just let us know in advance.

11. Do you accept walk-ins?

We do accept walk-ins when our artists have availability, but we always recommend booking ahead to guarantee your spot. Feel free to check in with us to see if there’s space!

12. Can I get a tattoo if I have sensitive skin or medical conditions?

If you have sensitive skin or a medical condition, let us know before booking. Conditions like eczema, psoriasis, or diabetes may need extra attention or care. Always consult with your doctor if you’re unsure about getting tattooed.

13. What types of tattoos do you specialize in?

15. What if I need to cancel or reschedule my appointment?

Life happens! If you need to cancel or reschedule, just give us a heads up at least 48 hours before your appointment. This helps us avoid any cancellation fees and allows us to open the spot for someone else.

16. How do I book a tattoo appointment?

Booking an appointment is easy! You can reach out to us through our website, give us a call, or swing by the studio in person. We also offer online consultations for custom designs.
