In the state of North Carolina, you must be18 years and be able to provide proof of age/identification to receive a tattoo. It is NOT permissible for a parent or legal guardian to consent for a minor.

The short answer is yes. Sure, getting a tattoo can be a bit annoying and even painful. Everyone’s pain threshold is different but tattoo pain ins tolerable. It is at most a temporary annoyance, but the result is a lifetime of enjoyment.

It depends. Size, location, complexity/amount of detail are all factors that determine the cost of your tattoo. Large, more complex tattoos are priced at an hourly rate for tattoo time only. An estimate (approximate cost) can be provided for for smaller, less complex tattoos if you come to the shop for a consultation. The shop minimum is $60.

You complete the Tattoo Request form, which will determine if we need to have an in-person consultation (most projects do NOT require an in-person consultation). If you have completed that form, we’ll be in touch! A $60, NON-REFUNDABLE deposit must be paid to secure your appointment time. YOU DO NOT HAVE A CONFIRMED APPOINTMENT UNTIL YOUR DEPOSIT IS PAID! The balance for your tattoo must be paid upon completion of each appointment and any deposit paid will be taken off of the final cost of your tattoo (at your LAST session).

We understand things come up! We appreciate as much notice as possible. If you need to reschedule, we are happy to transfer your deposit as long as you give more than 24 hours notice.

If you cancel your appointment within less than 24 hours of your appointment, or if you are a ‘no show’ for your appointment, your deposit will not be returned. If you choose to reschedule after a short notice cancellation or no show, you will be required to pay an additional deposit.

We will provide detailed instructions on how to care for your tattoo while it is healing at the end of your appointment.
