We charge depending on Artist experience. There will be an estimate given at the initial consultation. The final cost of tattoos is always determined the day of the appointment and is based on the final size, design, and placement of the tattoo.

Cover-up tattoos, difficult placements, and larger or more intricate tattoos require a request form before booking. If you are looking to get something simple like a word, flash piece, or small design, you are okay to walk in.
