Tattoo prices vary greatly depending on size, detail, and even placement. The best way to get an estimate would be to fill out the consultation form for the artist you wish to work with.

Yes, your artist will give you instructions on the amount and how to make a deposit.

No, deposits are non-refundable/transferable unless your artist decides differently.

We require a 48 hour notice of cancellation directly to the artist by email. Deposits are non refundable/transferable but are safe with 48 hours or more notice.

On average, it will take 2 to 4 weeks to heal a tattoo.

No, please wait until the tattoo is healed. Soaking can cause the pigment to lighten and the tattoo to heal poorly. Pools, lakes, oceans, etc will contain chemicals and bacteria that you don’t want in your tattoo.

AFTERCARE

Standard Bandaging

  • Leave the bandage in place until you reach a comfortable space to remove it. Don’t leave the bandage on overnight.
  • Make sure to wash your hands before removing the bandage and wash the tattoo with antibacterial soap and warm water. Pat dry with a clean towel and leave unbandaged. You will not need to rebandage the tattoo.
  • Apply a small amount of Aquaphor for the first few days until the tattoo begins to flake. Dab any excess off with a paper towel.
  • When the tattoo begins to flake, switch to a plain white hand lotion. Wash and apply lotion sparingly 2-3 times daily until healed. Bear in mind that too much lotion can be equally as bad as too little.
  • Until the tattoo is healed, no soaking (swimming pools, hot tubs, ponds, lakes, rivers, streams, oceans, etc.) and no sunlight (yes, this includes tanning beds). This will affect the healing and ultimately the final appearance of the tattoo. Showers are the only exception. You’ll need to wash the tattoo anyway.
  • The tattoo may begin to scab and itch while healing. This is normal. Do NOT scratch or pick. This can cause the tattoo to heal improperly and potentially pigment fallout. The flakes will fall away naturally.
  • If you have sensitive skin or do not regularly lotion the area prior to the tattoo care, you may cause a break out (small red bumps). Try reducing the amount of lotion or the number of times a day you lotion.

Second Skin Bandages

  • Leave the bandage in place according to your artist’s instructions.
  • You may notice a buildup of plasma underneath the bandage, this is normal. If the bandage begins to leak, remove the bandage.
  • You may notice a redness around the outer edge of the bandage. This is normal but may be a sign that you have a sensitivity to certain medical adhesives. You should remove the bandage.
  • To remove the bandage try to keep the skin taut, find a corner, and pull along the body to create an air pocket. Some people find that it helps to do this under running water.
  • Continue with standard aftercare.
