  • We open our books every 2 months, but usually have some scattered weekday appointments available on a rolling basis. You can submit to work with Em or Rachel specifically, or apply for first available at this link.

  • The shop hourly rate is $200/hr with a $150 minimum for small pieces taking under 40 minutes. We both tattoo fairly quickly and as a result our work remains at the affordable end of industry standard. The cost of a tattoo also covers the supplies we use for each piece as well as the hours of drawing time that take place before the appointment.

    We will give an estimated range at the time of booking and always do our best to accommodate a wide range of budgets!

    We also offer monthly Text & Tiny Tat flash days allowing you to get small pieces at a discount, as well as other flash days throughout the year.

  • We take nonrefundable $50 deposits for flash pieces, and $100 deposits for customs. The day of the appointment, we subtract the $50 from the tattoo cost. For customs, the additional $50 is a drawing fee. This system helps encourage flash and pre-drawn bookings and protect out artists from no-shows.

    We understand things come up and do transfer deposits for reschedules within 6 months with at least 48 hours heads up. Refunds for last minute cancellations are at the artist’s discretion.

  • We process all payments through Square and can take cash or card.

  • Our studio is open by appointment only, so while we have a cute shop area for clients, we are not open to the public day-to-day. We offer a wide range of open studio events for the community though where you can come say hi and check out the space!
