Tattoo FAQs

Tattoo pricing depends on size, placement, and detail. We do not offer quotes over email or phone, but we're happy to provide a general estimate if you stop by the shop. Our minimum is $80, and most artists charge between $150–$200 per hour.
Small (palm-sized or smaller) or flash designs are often available as walk-ins. For larger or more detailed work, an appointment is required. A $100 deposit is needed to hold your spot and will be applied to the final cost.
Deposits must be made in person at our studio and will never exceed $100. We will never ask for payment via phone or through apps like Cash App, Venmo, or PayPal. Be cautious of scammers on Instagram or Facebook claiming to represent us. When in doubt, contact us directly to confirm.

Your artist will bandage the area after your session. After 1–2 hours, remove the bandage and gently wash with unscented antibacterial soap.
