How It Works

Booking a tattoo can feel intimidating — we get it. That’s why we’ve made the process simple, clear, and stress-free from start to finish.

Claim Your Flash or Connect With Us

Book your free consultation or share your idea to chat with us first. We're happy to help you figure it out.

We’ll Follow Up

Once you’ve reserved your flash or sent in your form, your artist will reach out within 1–2 days to confirm everything — size, placement, timing, and any adjustments you might want.

Our artists are happy to work with you 1-on-1 to customize the piece so it feels personal and just right for you. We’re here to guide you through it all and answer any questions along the way.

Lock In Your Appointment

Once the details are confirmed, we’ll schedule your session and make it official. Your deposit secures your spot and goes toward the final cost — no surprises.

Between now and your appointment, your artist will work closely with you to finalize the artwork. Whether it's small tweaks or a more customized direction, we’ll make sure the design feels perfect before tattoo day.

Leading Up to Your Appointment

A little prep can make a big difference. Here are a few simple tips to help you get ready:

  • Eat well and stay hydrated
  • Moisturize the area for a few days
  • Avoid sunburn, alcohol, and blood thinners
  • Review your appointment details — and reach out with any questions

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What payments are accepted at the shop?

You can pay your deposit online or in person.

  • Online: We accept credit/debit (Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, Discover), Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, and PayPal.
  • In-Studio: Cash and card are accepted.

The remaining balance will be settled in-studio at the end of each tattoo session.

Financing Available: We offer flexible financing options — just contact us to learn more.

Can I bring someone to the appointment?

Yes! You’re welcome to bring a guest for support. Our studio has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere — we just ask that guests be respectful of the space and the artists working.

How much will my tattoo cost?

Tattoo pricing depends on your design, size, placement, and level of detail. For simpler pieces, we may quote a flat rate — for larger or more complex work, we usually charge hourly based on the artist’s rate.

Great tattoos aren’t cheap, and you don’t want to be cheap with your body — cover-ups and removals can be expensive (and not always possible). The best way to get an accurate quote is to chat with one of our artists. Share your idea or come by for a walk-in consultation and we’ll walk through your idea, timeline, and pricing together.

What if I need to reschedule or cancel?

Totally understandable — things happen! If you need to make changes, just let us know at least 7 days in advance and we’ll happily move your deposit to a new date or design.

If it’s less than 7 days’ notice, a $100 rescheduling fee will apply to cover the lost time.

We always try to be flexible — just keep us in the loop and we’ll do our best to help.

Can I walk-in for my tattoo?

Absolutely! We love walk-ins — they’re a great way to snag a spontaneous piece, especially for smaller or simpler tattoos.

It’s first come, first served, so feel free to swing by.

If you want to check ahead or avoid waiting, give us a quick call and we’ll do our best to fit you in.

Can I make changes to the flash?

We’re happy to make small tweaks like size, placement, or minor details — that’s all part of the process.

If you’re looking for bigger changes or something more unique, we can build on the flash design or start fresh with a custom piece.

How old do I need to be?

You must be 18+ and bring valid ID on the day.

Can I gift this?

Absolutely—just let us know the recipient’s name when booking.
