Frequently Asked Questions


How are tattoos priced?

There is a $100 minimum for all tattoos. A $100 deposit is required to secure your appointment. The deposit is applied to the final price of the tattoo. Prices are based on an hourly rate.

Why do I have to pay a deposit?

Your deposit covers the time and materials used to design and draw up your custom tattoo(s). I schedule all of my appointments in advance to ensure I can give you the best experience.

What if I need to reschedule/cancel my tattoo appointment?

If you need to reschedule for any reason, you must notify me 24 hours before your scheduled appointment and your deposit will be applied to your new appointment time. If you cancel or reschedule less than 48 hours before your scheduled appointment time, you will need to pay another deposit. I understand that emergencies and unexpected situations happen, if you need to cancel or reschedule, please notify me as soon as possible and I will do my best to accommodate your needs.

How old do I have to be to receive a tattoo?

 Thank goodness I am The legal age to receive a tattoo without parental consent is 18 years old with two forms of valid identification such as: valid I.D., drivers license, military I.D., passport, insurance card, work I.D, pieces of mail, or anything with your legal first and last name.

The legal age to receive a tattoo with parental consent is 16 years old with a valid birth certificate and the parent’s legal first and last name coming with the minor and two forms of the parent’s identification such as: valid I.D., drivers license, military I.D., passport, insurance card, work I.D, pieces of mail, or anything with your legal first and last name.

*Copies of birth certificates are NOT accepted.*
You must provide the original birth certificate for valid identification of the minor.

Can I bring people with me while I am getting my tattoo?

Getting a tattoo is an exciting experience and I understand you may want to bring friends or family with you for support or to share this special moment, but we do have limitations for everyone’s safety. You are allowed to bring ONE guest to your appointment and NO small children are allowed.

Do I have to make an appointment?

Appointments are preferred. However, if you contact the shop and there is an opening available, I will try my best to accept walk-ins.

Can I get a cover-up tattoo?

If it is possible, yes. The best way to determine if a cover-up can be completed is to see the existing tattoo and discuss the ideas that can be done for a new piece. Once it is determined if the tattoo can be covered up, the design process and pricing will be explained and an appointment can be scheduled. When it comes to covering up tattoos, keep in mind that most cover-ups need to be 2-3 times larger than the existing tattoo and colors, especially dark ones, are needed to make it successfully disappear. Photos and consultations are crucial to begin this process.

Are the tattoo products vegan friendly?

Yes. All tattoo ink, materials, products, and aftercare used are organic, natural, animal cruelty free, and vegan friendly.

Tattoo Aftercare

Tattoo aftercare will be discussed upon completion of your tattoo. Keep covering on tattoo as provided and instructed for 5-7 days and remove with warm water. If you have any additional questions or concerns contact me directly.
