FAQ

The majority of your new tattoos healing process will be done within the first two weeks. However, the skin is still working to heal and rejuvenate and you need to plan on a 4-6 weeks for your skin to be back to its previous state.

As the skin rejuvenates itself, usually about a week after the tattoo was done, the itch sets in. This is 100% normal. Good moisturizers will help immensely with this but DO NOT SCRATCH IT! If lotion isn’t helping, run it under cold water for a few moments and you should be itch free.

For tattoos, we can TATTOO 18+ with ID ONLY.

For PIERCINGS, 16+ with ID only (beside nipples and genitals strickly 18++ with ID).

We can only do Earlobes and Nose for those under age 16 with Parent consent only.

No ID NO TATTOO AND PIERCING.

We always encourage people to book an appointment for tattoos of any size. First, this guarantees you will get in at a certain time without potentially waiting for hours. Second, it gives our artists the chance to draw your new tattoo so that it’s 100% unique to you. For smaller tattoos, if we have openings feel free to try to walk in.

Don’t be. Seriously, if you’re late to your appointment it will throw our schedule off for the day.

We’ve only ever had two people do this and it’s a terrible idea. If you no-show we will keep your deposit. That means your tattoo, if you do get it, will cost you 150% of what it should have cost.

Make sure you are well rested, well hydrated, and have eaten recently. Aside from that, take a shower, charge your phone or tablet up to full, and don’t bring in your 50 closest friends (1-2 are fine).

It’s more important to be comfortable than to be fashionable. Looser is better than tighter, and keep in mind you want to be able to cover up certain places that might show, depending on where you're getting your tattoo.

First thing, come talk to us. The best large pieces always BEGIN with a cohesive plan, not just bits and pieces loosely tied together. We can do a sleeve or back piece with existing work in place, but it will ALWAYS look better when you come in with a plan and allow the same artist to help bring that plan to fruition for you. Along those same lines, it’s going to take multiple session and can cost you £300, £500, or £800 a session depend from the work details and which artist you select. Depend how long is the session as well.

You should not get tattooed when you are:

• Drunk
• High
• Pregnant
• Pre-Surgery
• Post-Surgery
• When you don’t know what you want
• When you’re sunburned
• When you haven’t showered
• When you have your kids with you
• If you don’t have an ID
• Being pressured into it

Often we will have hours of work in drawing and preparing for a tattoo before you sit down in our chair. Deposits help to ensure you make it to your appointment and that we haven’t done hours of work for nothing.

Our shop minimum is £30 to £40 depend which artist you want your tattoo from. You might not realize it, but we go through nearly the same amount of very expensive supplies to do a tattoo the size of a quarter as we do for a tattoo the size of a softball. Everything has to be sterilized, before and after.

A tattoo is probably a 3/10. The best comparison would be to getting a scratch on a sunburn or to having someone draw on you with a ball-point pen on a sunburn. It doesn’t feel good, but it’s more of an intermittent irritation than a constant pain. Remember, a tattoo has more in common with an abrasion than it does with a hypodermic needle shot from the doctor.

If tattoos are a 3/10 on a pain scale, piercings are probably 0 to 5 out of 10 depend on the area and the person itself. it can be a bit painful - but only for a very short period of time.
