FAQ & aftercare.
How does booking work?
Start with a free consult — in person or online — to plan your piece. A deposit (applied to your session) books your date. Book one here, or try the Ink Concept planner first.
Do you take walk-ins?
When an artist has an opening, yes — best odds early in the day and midweek. For anything custom or larger, an appointment guarantees your time.
How much will my tattoo cost?
Custom work is $180/hr, half-days $650, full-days $1,200; flash starts at $120 and small pieces at $100. Your artist gives you a clear estimate at your free consult.
Does it hurt? It's my first one.
Everyone's different, but most people find it far more manageable than they feared — and placement matters a lot. We'll go at your pace, take breaks, and talk you through it. You've got this.
How do I take care of it?
Keep the wrap on as directed, wash gently with our aftercare wash, apply a thin layer of balm, and keep it out of the sun and pools while it heals (about two weeks). We send you home with full instructions and offer a free touch-up within 60 days.
Do I need to be a certain age?
You must be 18 or older with a valid government photo ID — no exceptions, even with parental consent. Please come sober and eat beforehand.
Can you cover up or fix an old tattoo?
Often, yes — cover-ups and reworks always start with a free consult so we can see what we're working with. Bring a clear photo or come in.
