How do I book an appointment?
Choose your nearest studio, service, size, and placement on the booking page, then pay a deposit ($50.00–$200.00 depending on size) with secure Stripe checkout. Your booking is created once the payment succeeds, and the studio contacts you to confirm your artist and exact time.
Why do I need a deposit, and is it refundable?
The deposit reserves your artist’s time and covers design work. It’s non-refundable, but it’s credited in full toward the final price of your tattoo.
Can I reschedule?
Yes, once, with at least 48 hours’ notice; your deposit moves to the new date. Later changes, a second reschedule, or a no-show forfeit the deposit.
How much will my tattoo cost?
Price depends on size, detail, color, placement, and session length. The booking page shows starting estimates; your artist gives you a final quote after reviewing your idea.
Do you offer couples or matching tattoo packages?
Yes! We offer dedicated Couples & Duo packages for matching or complementary tattoos in a shared session. These packages are priced significantly lower per person than booking two separate individual sessions ($110/person for mini/flash vs $150 individual, $240/person for medium vs $350 individual), and require only one shared deposit.
Where are your studios?
We have studios in Austin, TX, Boston, MA, Fargo, ND, Las Vegas, NV, Portland, OR, Providence, RI, Seattle, WA. You book in your studio’s local time, and every location offers tattoos, cover-ups, touch-ups, and removal consultations.
How old do I have to be?
You must be 18 or older with a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID at every location, even in states that allow tattoos for minors with parental consent.
How should I prepare for my session?
Get a good night’s sleep, eat a full meal, drink plenty of water, and avoid alcohol for 24 hours beforehand. Wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the placement area.
Can I bring my own design or reference images?
Yes. Describe your idea and include reference links when you book. Your artist will create a custom design based on your references rather than copying another artist’s work.
Can you cover up an old tattoo?
Often, yes. Book a cover-up so your artist can assess the size, darkness, and color of your existing tattoo. Very dark pieces may need a few laser fading sessions first.
Do you offer tattoo removal?
Yes. Our tattoo removal and fading appointments begin with a consultation with a qualified provider to assess your tattoo, explain realistic expectations, number of sessions, and pricing. Your online deposit holds your spot and is credited in full toward your treatment.
How do I take care of my new tattoo?
Follow your artist’s instructions and our aftercare guide: keep it clean, moisturize lightly, don’t pick at it, and avoid soaking and direct sun while it heals.
