Not Sure where to start?

Not sure where to start?

  • You want a tattoo and you know which tattoo artist you want to work with:

    Great! We love it.

    Head over to that particular tattoo artists page and see if they are booking. If they are, fill out a booking form or follow their instructions to get a tattoo appointment. If they are not currently scheduling tattoo appointments, add your email to their list to be notified when they are!

  • You want a tattoo but you don't know which tattoo artist you want to work with:

    No worries!

    The best thing to do is check out each tattoo artists previous tattoo work and read about what their tattoo interests and specialties are. The best way to do this is read what’s up for each tattoo artist, click on their info, look at their work (on their artist page and instagram).

    To check which tattoo artist is booking now, head to our books open page:

  • You know the tattoo you want is a small or simple idea:

    Cool!

    Walk-in Wednesday or Same Day Sunday might be perfect for you. Check out the walk in tattoo page for information and photo examples of what walk in tattoos look like (more picture examples are on our Instagram under the walk-in highlight and pinned post).

  • You want a tattoo but have no idea what you want, but something small:

    That’s fine too!

    Walk-in days (Wednesday and Sunday) are for custom or flash tattoos.

    Tattoo flash is pre drawn images that are ready to be tattooed. Pick one and get it done! We have several tattoo artists who draw their own flash that are available on walk-in days and we also have “get what you get tattoos”.
