Once you’ve selected your preferred artist(s), you can either message them directly on Instagram, stop by the shop, call us at (408) 613-2115, or fill out the form in the booking tab. This will enable us to process your request quickly and efficiently. We schedule appointments a maximum of three months in advance.

Yes, getting a tattoo can be painful, but the level of pain experienced varies from person to person. Several factors contribute to how much pain you might feel during the process, including your individual pain tolerance and the location of the tattoo on your body.

You must be at least 18 years of age. It is against California State law to tattoo a minor, even with parental consent. In accordance with this law we have a strict No Minors policy. Not only must you be 18, you have to prove it with a valid State or Federal Photo ID. No exceptions.

It depends on the artist, but the shop minimum is $80. That means all tattoos, even a dot, start at $80. Final price is dependent on size, detail of the design, location on the body where it will be placed, and finally which artist you’ve chosen. Some artists have a minimum billing, which varies.

The best way to get an accurate price range is by booking a consultation with the artist—if not in person, then through a brief detailed message. In order for us to quote your idea, we need to consider the subject, size, placement on the body, detail, etc.

You are also welcome to come into the shop and talk to one of our artists, if they’re available. We’re always more than happy to help get you the information you need.

Generally our resident artists book a weeks in advance. The term “walk-in” means you don’t need an appointment. They will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis with cancellation availability permitting. We will always do our best to accommodate your request. Please give us a call to see if we have available artist.

We accept cash, credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express), Venmo, and Zelle. No checks.

Yes. A deposit is required to make an appointment. Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable and will be applied to the final price of your tattoo.

Every shop has their own recommended care methods. You will be given an instruction sheet after you’ve been tattooed.

It takes two weeks to “heal,” but it takes months for the skin to fully regenerate.

We recommend that you eat well before you come in, and remember to stay hydrated. If you start to feel woozy, have a soda. Sugar is your friend in this situation.

It’s best not to party the night before because alcohol can increase bleeding for up to 24 hours. Blood also dilutes our pigments, affecting both the appearance of your tattoo as well as the healing process. Remember to stay calm and cool, you’re in good hands. There’s nothing to stress over—it’s just a tattoo!
