Pick the artist whose style fits your idea and send a request through our booking page, call the shop at (645) 201-1469, or DM us on Instagram with a description of your idea, rough size, placement and any reference images. We'll match you with the right artist and get you on the books — usually within days.
Yes. Walk-ins are welcome daily, 12PM–9PM, subject to which artists are free that day. Smaller pieces are often same-day; for larger work we'll set you up with a consultation and a booked session. Calling ahead is the best way to check availability.
Price depends on size, placement, detail and the artist. The most accurate way to get a number is a free consultation, where we look at your idea and give you an honest quote before you commit a dollar.
Yes — a deposit is required to hold your appointment, and it goes toward the final cost of your tattoo. The amount varies depending on the artist and the size and detail of the piece, so your artist will confirm it when you book.
You must be at least 18 years old with a valid government-issued photo ID. This is Florida state law, and we hold a strict no-minors policy — no exceptions.
Absolutely. Bring references, sketches or a clear description and your artist will design a custom piece around your idea, your body and your placement. You'll see and approve the design before we start.
Yes — cover-ups and rework are one of our specialties. Bring the existing tattoo in or send photos and we'll tell you honestly what's possible before booking. More on cover-ups →
Eat a good meal beforehand, stay hydrated, and get a solid night's sleep. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your session — it thins your blood and affects healing. Wear comfortable clothing that gives easy access to the area being tattooed.
There's some discomfort and it varies by placement and your own tolerance, but most people find it very manageable — and worth it. Our artists work to keep you comfortable and take breaks when you need them.
You'll get full aftercare guidance before you leave. The basics: keep it clean, lightly moisturized and out of the sun, and don't pick or scratch as it heals. Full healing takes a few weeks. See the complete aftercare guide →
We accept cash and major credit cards. If you have questions about payment for a larger or multi-session piece, just ask your artist.
