Tattoo shop founded on good design principles & solid tattooing
A: Sure. It’s always nice to have someone accompany you if you’re a little uneasy about getting tattooed, especially if it’s your first. However, please limit your crew to 1-2 people.
A: Please make arrangements for childcare before coming to get tattooed. Often there is language and other visuals not suited for young eyes and ears. In addition, it is not recommended by the Health Department.
A: Yes, a deposit is the only way to secure an appointment. Your deposit covers the artists time for research, preparing the drawing and setup. It does not go towards the final cost of the tattoo. Deposits are typically $50 for smaller pieces or $100 for pieces taking more than an hour, however each artist require different deposits. Check with your artist to see what they require. If you cannot make your appointment(s) please provide at least a 48 hour notice. The deposit is non-refundable or transferable and is subject to void if you neglect to fulfill your obligation to make it to your appointment(s).
A: Tipping as a general rule in a service industry is a common courtesy and recommended to be handled just as you would a stylist, waiter and/or waitress.
A: Yes. Our studio offers design and illustration services on a custom basis.
A: No.
A: Yes, but it depends on who you prefer to get tattooed by. Each artist has their own minimum.
Yes. They are available in the shop or available via snail mail. They are not transferable or exchangeable. Our gift certificates expire after 6 months.
A: We take all major credit and debit cards, however, cash is always preferred.
A: Absolutely. We generally book by appointment and each individual artist has varying availability. Fridays and Saturdays are typically our busiest times but we can generally accommodate most any immediate request within reason. Calling ahead with a deposit always ensures a spot for same day appointments. If you would like to get tattooed on a specific day within short range, please contact the artist you wish to work with via their individual page to inquire about their availability and set up a time for a consultation and/or tattoo.
A: Booking a consultation is the best way to ensure you are on the same page with the artist. Times for consultation vary depending on the artist, but your best bet is to try and book consultations when we open and close to ensure our undivided attention.
A: The best way is to come to the shop and talk in in person. Aside from that (especially if you are from out of town) you can give us a call and set something up that way. We are a small operation, so bear with us. We will be sure to get back to you as soon as possible.
Our shop is at 118 S. 17th Street in the big white brick building on the left hand side of the road. We are upstairs in the building. You’ll enter on the south side of the building through a common area and come up the stair case into the shop. We have signage that hopefully points you in the right direction.
We are open Tuesday through Saturday from noon-7pm.
