+ Does getting a tattoo hurt?

Yes, they hurt. However, they are tolerable and it does depend on where on your body you're getting it and your pain tolerance. For your first tattoo, you may want to start in a less painful spot, like your arms.

+ How much is a tattoo?

There are lots of variables such as size, placement, color and detail that can make up the price of a tattoo. If you schedule a free consultation with one of our artists, we can give you an approximation of how much it will be. Our minimum on tattoos is $60

+ Will you draw my design or do I have to bring one in?

We prefer to customize your design for you, but also have no problem taking inspiration from a design that you bring in. We will not copy other artists tattoo designs.

+ Do I have to come in to the shop to make an appointment?

We prefer you to come in for a free consultation with your artist and to make your appointment. We are also sometimes willing to book your appointment over the phone depending on if you have been in contact already with your artist and they have an understanding of what you're getting.

+ Do I need to put a deposit down to make an appointment?

Yes, we always require a deposit for all appointments, unless its an 'in progress' piece. We require a $60 deposit that comes off of the price of the last session of your tattoo. Deposits are non-refundable.

+ Will you refund my deposit?

No, we do not refund deposits. However, if you reschedule at least 24 hrs before your initial appointment, we are willing to move your deposit to your new appointment time.

+ Are your inks vegan friendly?

Yes! :)

+ Can I bring my kids in with me while I'm getting tattooed?

We would prefer you to leave the kids at home. Sitting with someone while getting a tattoo can be extremely boring for children (and adults). As much as we love children and several of us are parents ourselves, babies and kids can be very distracting to our artists while they are trying to concentrate on their work. No one under the age of 12 is allowed back in the tattoo area, but they may come in for a consultation appointment.

+ How long does it take for my tattoo to heal?

It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to a month to heal. Sometimes longer in very rare cases.

+ How much do touch ups cost?

Touch ups are free within the first year of getting your tattoo for most cases. We usually will charge a small touch up fee for finger re-touch.

+ What colors are best for my skin tone?

We're more than happy to tattoo people of every color! Your skin tone dictates the best colors for your tattoo. If you have darker skin, expect for colors to be more subtle and muted. If you have light skin, colors will be brighter.

+ Can you cover my tattoo?

We do cover-ups on a case by case basis. We will absolutely need to do a consultation in person for any and every cover up requested. Depending on the saturation of the old tattoo, not every piece is coverable.

+ Does getting a piercing hurt?

Yes, they hurt. However, they are tolerable and it does depend on where on your body you're getting it and your pain tolerance. The great thing about piercings is they are really fast, so the pain only lasts for less than a minute

+ How much is a piercing?

Most of our piercings have a service fee of $35 and then additional cost for jewelry. We use ONLY high quality surgical steel, titanium, niobium and gold for initial piercings

+ Should I make an appointment for piercings?

It's always best to call ahead, but feel free to make an appointment or come in as a 'walk-in'
