Getting a tattoo can be uncomfortable, but the level of pain varies depending on the individual and the location of the tattoo. Most people can carry on casual conversation & use their phones. Our artists use techniques to minimize discomfort, and we can provide guidance on how to care for your tattoo after the appointment to minimize any pain or discomfort.

The pricing of a tattoo varies on many things including design, size, and location. Then other factors contribute to pricing such as how long it will take. The shop minimum is $50 and goes up from there.

We charge more if the area is hard to get to (like the chest or hip area) or where it might be more sensitive for the customer (like the ribs or neck). Both factors slow down the process and create extra work.

Appointments are preferred, but Walk Ins are always welcome during Wednesdays. 

There will always be flash available on Walk-In Wednesdays, check our social media for special themes or events. Remember, we're CASH ONLY.

We require a non-refundable CASH deposit for all appointments. Deposits are $50 and are deducted from the final price of the tattoo. For larger work and custom pieces, please come into the shop in person. This allows your artist to talk to you about your idea, measure the area of your body, estimate how long it will take, and answer any questions you may have. Please bring idea/image references with you for your consultation.  

Make sure to bring your ID and Cash for your tattoo. You can bring in headphones, your phone charger, comfy clothes/clothes suited for the area you are getting tattooed, stuffed animal, anything that brings you comfort. We usually have a speaker playing music or a TV playing a movie/cartoons. 

Make sure to eat a full meal and be fully hydrated before your appointment to deal with the fatigue of getting tattooed. A good nights sleep can only help as well. 

Yes! You're always welcome to bring your friends, family, co-workers, whoever you'd like. Depending on how busy we are, we may limit total people in working areas but always feel free to bring someones hand you can hold while getting tattooed or pierced !

There's street parking thats available directly infront of the shop, its paid meter during weekdays, and free parking after 4pm on weekdays, free during weekends. 

Tips are never expected, but always appreciated. 

If you feel your professional did a good job, a cash tip or a google review mentioning them can do wonders. 

Each tattooer will give you a card with full care instructions. If you don’t have this card, just follow these simple instructions:

1. Leave the saniderm bandage on from 2 hours to 2 days
2. Take the bandage off under warm running water.
3. Once the bandage is off, make sure that your hands are clean and gently wash the tattoo with a mild fragrance free soap and warm water. Take care to wash the tattoo until all of the old ointment is off. Be gentle but thorough, do not scrub. Next, apply a thin coat of antibacterial ointment (e.g. Aquaphor, A & D, etc). Repeat this process one or two times per day.
4. In a few days you will notice the tattoo peeling or getting a slight scab. Do not pick at it! That means its healing fine. Switch from the ointment to a fragrance free hand lotion like Lubriderm or Curel to keep it moist.
5. Keep it out of direct sunlight and do not soak it under water for at least 2 weeks or until completely healed.

If you have just gotten tattooed, it is normal to have some degree of redness and swelling for 12 – 48 hours. If you have some sort of rash, there are a few possible reasons. You may be sensitive to the soap or ointment that you are using, or you may be using too much ointment. If you have any concerns, please call our shop or come by. You may also contact your artist directly.
