FAQ

Yes, we gladly accept walk-ins for smaller tattoos or flash designs, but appointments are recommended for larger or custom pieces to ensure we have ample time to discuss and create your design.

Tattoo pricing is best discussed in person, as it depends on factors like size, placement, and color. Our shop minimum is $80, and for larger pieces, we’re happy to work within your budget. Just let us know your price range, and we can often adjust the design to fit. Complex, large-scale tattoos like sleeves or back pieces are typically done in stages, allowing you to pay as you go. For these, we usually charge by the hour. Stop by the studio to discuss your tattoo ideas with the artist and get a more accurate estimate.

We specialize in various styles, including Bold Americana, Japanese Traditional, fine line, and custom work. If you’re looking for something specific, we’re happy to discuss your vision and bring it to life.
