Do you take walk-ins?
Yes. Walk-ins are welcome whenever we have a chair free, and smaller pieces can often be done the same day. Larger custom work is best booked in advance so the artist has time to draw it up.
Questions
Before you get tattooed
The things people ask us most in the shop. If your question is not here, send it over with your enquiry.
What are your opening hours?
We are open 10am to 6pm Wednesday to Sunday, and closed Monday and Tuesday.
How much does a tattoo cost?
Price depends on size, placement, detail and how long the piece takes. Send us your idea with a rough size and placement and we will come back to you with a realistic quote before you commit to anything.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
Larger booked work takes a deposit to secure the appointment and cover drawing time. The deposit comes off the final price of the tattoo.
How old do I have to be to get tattooed?
You must be 18 or over. We ask for photo ID and we cannot tattoo anyone under 18, with or without parental consent.
How long will my tattoo take?
Small pieces can be under an hour. Sleeves, back pieces and large custom work are usually split across several sessions, and your artist will map that out with you at the consultation.
Can I bring reference images?
Please do. References, photos of the placement and anything that shows the feel you are after all help. We draw custom, so we use your references as a direction rather than copying them.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Eat beforehand, drink plenty of water, get a decent night's sleep and wear clothing that gives easy access to the area being tattooed. Avoid alcohol the night before.
Can I choose which artist tattoos me?
Yes. Every artist has their own strengths, so have a look through the galleries and name your preferred artist on the enquiry form. If you are not sure, tell us the idea and we will point you to the right hands.
Do you cover up or rework old tattoos?
Often, yes. Send a clear photo of the existing tattoo along with what you would like instead and we will tell you honestly what is possible.
