  • How do I get tattooed?

    We strongly encourage making a reservation to get tattooed by one of our artists. We accept walk-in clients for same day tattoos on a first come first served basis when time is available.

    Please call to inquire about our walk-in availability.

    For more detailed, custom work - we work on an appointment basis starting with a consultation. At a consultation you will cover design, placement and size with the artist of your choice to plan the start of your tattoo. Consultations are complimentary.

    Afterward, we can book your tattoo first appointment and place an initial deposit to reserve your first tattoo appointment and start the design process. We accept cash and all major credit cards.

  • Aftercare:

    Remove bandage before bed and clean after removal with dial soap. Do not remove the bandage sooner then three hours after receiving the tattoo or being home. Do not re-bandage your tattoo once the bandage is removed.

    Use an unscented antibacterial soap twice a day to gently wash your tattoo. Allow tattoo air dry.

    With clean hands, thinly apply Aquaphor ointment. Through out the first three-five days of healing, apply ointment twice a day to your clean tattoo.

    After three-five days switch to an unscented sensitive skin lotion such as Lubriderm. Apply the lotion three times a day for the next two weeks.

    Let your tattoo peel or flake naturally. Do not pick, itch, scratch your tattoo while it is healing.

    Do not soak the tattoo for two weeks - this includes swimming, taking a bath, hot tubs or saunas. No gyms or spa's or the like for at least two weeks.

    Allow your new tattoo to breathe as much as possible.

    Do not allow direct sunlight on your new tattoo for the first three weeks. Do not apply sunscreen to your new tattoo until it is healed.

    Once your new tattoo is healed completely, apply 50 SPF sunblock or more to your tattoo whenever exposed to the sun.
