FAQ

Before You Book.

Straight answers for appointments, walk-ins, tattoos, piercings, deposits, ID requirements, and aftercare.

Do I book a tattoo online?

Online tattoo booking is used for consultations. Larger or custom tattoos should start with a consultation so the artist can review your idea, placement, size, time needed, and pricing before scheduling the tattoo session.

Do you accept walk-ins?

Walk-ins may be accepted when an artist or piercer is available. Custom tattoos, larger pieces, child/minor piercings, and services needing extra planning should be scheduled ahead.

What is the tattoo shop minimum and hourly rate?

The public tattoo information lists a $100 shop minimum and a $160 hourly shop rate. Final pricing can vary by artist, detail, size, color, placement, and session length.

What should I send before a tattoo appointment?

Send your design ideas, references, placement, approximate size, and any must-have details to your artist a couple of days before the appointment so the design can be prepared.

What should I avoid before a tattoo?

Do not drink alcohol or take painkillers before your appointment. Eat beforehand, hydrate, and arrive with valid ID.

What jewelry do piercings include?

Piercings include implant-grade titanium jewelry. Jewelry upgrades may be available, including premium titanium, solid gold, and decorative pieces.

What ID do minors need for piercings?

A parent or legal guardian must be present, have valid photo ID, and bring the minor’s identification plus the minor’s birth certificate. Pictures or non-certified copies are not accepted.

Can a legal guardian consent for a minor?

Yes, when they bring legal guardianship paperwork in addition to the minor’s birth certificate and the guardian’s valid ID.

What happens if the appointment cannot happen because of missing documents?

The studio’s public policy warns that if an appointment cannot move forward because the correct documentation is missing, the client may still be charged for the appointment cost.

How long do piercings take to heal?

Healing varies, but many piercings take three to six months or longer. Keep the piercing dry, avoid touching it, and book downsizing when recommended.

How long does a tattoo take to heal?

Most tattoos take about one to two weeks for initial healing, but care should continue until the tattoo is fully settled. Follow the artist’s instructions, especially if Saniderm or a similar wrap is used.

How do gift cards work?

Use the Gift Cards page to send a secure request. The site does not collect card numbers; the studio confirms the amount, pickup or delivery details, and payment path before completing the purchase.
