FAQs & About

How much will my tattoo cost?

Flash: $100-250 total

Customs: $150-300 total

Costs are dependent on size, placement, and complexity. The deposit is nonrefundable and comes out of the final cost of the tattoo. Get a 10% discount if you pay cash (preferred!), but payment apps and cards are accepted too.

Budgets are always taken into consideration, just note in the booking form or DM/email with requests.

How long will my appointment take?

Usually around 1-4+ hours, depending on size, placement, and complexity. More complex and larger designs may be split into multiple sessions to allow the best experience for everyone.

Can I reschedule or cancel my appointment?

Rescheduling is available until 3 days before your appointment, there’s a link in your confirmation email to do this. Cancellations will result in losing your deposit. Please reach out with any questions.

Can I bring guests?

Yes! But please no more than 2 guests, as this is a shared professional space that can get busy. There will be plenty of spots to hang out in the lobby and seats can easily be accommodating in the tattooing space.

Why get a handpoke tattoo?

Handpoke (stick and poke, machine-free) tattoos are poked individually with just a needle and no machine and tend to be gentler on your skin. They take longer because the process is slower, but many clients have said that they hurt less and are easier to heal. I chose this medium because I love the hand-done look.

These are done by a licensed professional artist in a sanitary tattooing environment with single-use tools that are made for tattooing. So these are not your friend-of-a-friend’s questionable basement tattoo!
