What's the cost of my tattoo?

The cost of your tattoo will all depend on its size, location, amount of detail, and the time needed to complete it. Pricing starts at $100 (shop minimum) for smaller tattoos and goes up from there. 

​

For larger projects, pricing is determined by the length of the session and whether or not the tattoo is black & grey or color. Sessions are priced according to your artist's hourly rate, which can vary anywhere between $100 - $300 an hour. $50 - $200 Deposit (non-refundable, no exceptions). No Call No Show 

What can I bring? 

If you are a new client, please bring a government-issued ID (license, state ID, passport, etc.) with you to your first appointment.

​

Be on time and please try to get proper sleep and a meal beforehand. Try to come hydrated with clean loose-fitted clothing. Feel free to bring your headphones, a tablet, book, magazine, bottle of water/any other non-alcoholic beverage with a lid, and light snacks if desired. Wi-Fi is provided!

Does it hurt? Should my skin be perfectly clear?

Pain threshold varies by person, but typically yes, getting a tattoo does hurt. The pain is manageable but some areas are more sensitive than others. Ask your artist about numbing creams beforehand.

​

General rule of thumb: the clearer, the better. Dry, chaffed, sunburned, irritated, and/or broken skin will not tattoo well and will ultimately hinder the quality of your tattoo once healed. If you are suffering from any type of skin issue, we may ask you to choose another area to have us tattoo or reschedule your appointment. 

Can I bring a friend or family member with me?

We ask that you limit your visitors to only 1 extra person with you in the studio at a time. Contact your artist directly to see if we can accommodate an exception for special circumstances. 

​

No one under the age of 18 is allowed in the shop. This includes the lobby and bathrooms.

I have been feeling a little under the weather. Can I still get tattooed?

If you are sick, please stay home. Our artists value their health as well as the health of their families, so we do not want to be in close contact with anyone sick for hours at a time. If you are unwell, we will reschedule your appointment and give you priority in our schedule in order to get you in as soon as possible once you are feeling better. Our artists reserve the right to cancel your appointment on the spot if you show up for your tattoo visibly unwell.
