Does getting a tattoo hurt?
– Pain levels vary depending on the location, size, and individual pain tolerance. Some areas, like ribs and hands, are more sensitive, while others, like arms and thighs, are less painful.
How much does a tattoo cost?
– Pricing depends on size, design complexity, placement, and the artist’s experience. We provide estimates after discussing your design
Do I need to book an appointment, or do you take walk-ins?
– We recommend booking an appointment for custom work, but we do accept walk-ins if time allows.
What should I bring to my tattoo appointment?
– Bring a valid ID, wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the tattoo area, and eat beforehand to keep your energy up.
Can I bring a friend to my appointment?
– Please check with the artist beforehand. In most cases, we prefer to keep the space focused and minimal, and there usually isn’t room for extra guests in the studio.
How do I prepare for my tattoo session?
– Get a good night’s sleep, stay hydrated, eat a meal beforehand, and avoid alcohol or blood-thinning medication like aspirin for at least 24 hours.
Can I bring my own design?
– Absolutely! We can work with your design or modify it to ensure it translates well into a tattoo.
Do you offer custom designs?
– Yes! We specialize in custom work to make sure you get a unique tattoo that fits your vision.
How long does a tattoo take?
– It depends on the size and detail of the design. Small tattoos may take 30 minutes, while larger pieces or sleeves require multiple sessions.
Can I get tattooed over scars, stretch marks, or existing tattoos?
– In most cases, yes! Cover-ups and tattooing over scars are possible, but we need to assess the area in person.
