Frequently Asked Questions
What size/designs are best for walk‑ins?
Walk‑ins are perfect for small to medium pieces that can be completed in one session: flash, line work, script, and simplified custom designs. Larger projects are best booked through a consultation.
Do you take deposits for walk‑ins?
We may require a deposit for late‑day holds or multi‑hour designs. Deposits secure your spot and apply to the total; they are non‑refundable inside the reschedule window.
How long is the wait?
It varies by day and time. When stations are full, we'll open a waitlist and text you updates. Returning within the quoted window keeps your place in line.
What ID do I need?
Bring a government‑issued photo ID. For minors, additional consent requirements apply and some services may be restricted by age.
Can I swim after my tattoo?
Avoid ocean, pools, and hot tubs until your tattoo is fully healed. Salt and chlorine can irritate new tattoos and slow recovery.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept major cards, cash, and Apple Pay. For bigger projects, consider our Tattoo Financing options for predictable monthly payments.
