My pre-drawn flash designs are all offered at a flat rate price.
Custom designs are $200 per hour, with a minimum of $150 for tattoos taking less than an hour.
Please let me know if you have a budget and we can arrange to breakup the tattoo into smaller sessions to work with your budget.
-
Deposits can be made via Venmo, Cashapp, or cash, but all payments the day of your tattoo must be in cash.
We do not have an ATM at the shop, but there is one down the street.
-
Consults are required for all cover ups, hands, neck, and face tattoos. They’re also required for all sleeves and half sleeves.
If none of these apply to you, but you would like to come in for an in person consultation anyway, you’re more than welcome to!
-
Start with a good night’s sleep the night before your appointment.
Be sure to eat a proper meal before you come in and drink plenty of water.
In the days leading up to your appointment, wear sun protection! Sun burnt skin cannot be tattooed.
Be sure to bring a valid ID and cash for payment. Wear comfortable clothing that allows access to the area we’re tattooing. Feel free to bring a book, headphones, a water bottle or snacks.

Deposits are non-refundable, and will go towards the final cost of your tattoo. If your tattoo requires multiple sessions, the deposit will go towards the cost of the last session.
Deposits can be applied to one rescheduled appointment, if you give at least 48 hours notice, and the new appointment is within 90 days of the original appointment date. However, your deposit will be forfeited for multiple reschedules, reschedules with under 48 hour notice, cancellations, no shows, coming to an appointment more than 20 minutes late, without a valid ID, under the influence, or with the specific area we’re tattooing being injured (example: sunburns, cuts/scrapes, skin infections, etc).
Short-notice and repeated reschedules require another deposit to confirm the new appointment.
Minor edits to your design are free, but major changes to your design concept require an additional $50 fee that does not go toward the cost of your tattoo.
By paying the deposit, you are stating that you’ve read and agree to my deposit policy.
