How It All Works
The Next step
Once you’ve made that first contact, our experienced administration team will get you matched up with the perfect artist for your needs/desires. Your artist will look over all of the information you have sent, as well as any reference photos you have included to better convey what you have in mind. They will then determine if an in-person consultation will be necessary (generally it isn’t), and if not, they will estimate how long of an appointment will be needed for the tattoo you would like to get. At that point, you will receive pricing, deposit, and booking information, and can proceed to setting up your appointment.
Design Process
Our goal is to produce custom artwork that is unique to each person. In the days leading up to your appointment, your artist will get to work designing the perfect piece of art for you. This portion of the process is the most vital, as the foundation of your tattoo begins here, and everything will be built off of this.
During this process, you should expect changes to be made to your initial vision. One of the thrilling aspects of working in the medium of tattooing, is that there are limitations that must be overcome. Size, contrast, and spacing may all need to be altered somewhat to achieve the overall goal of a beautiful tattoo that will stand the test of time. It is important to listen to your artist on this, as they have accumulated many years of experience, and are backed by an award winning team of veteran artists that they work closely with each day.
Appointment Day
The day of your appointment, make sure to eat a good meal and be sure you are hydrated. Arrive at the studio at your appointment time (no more than 10 minutes early, your artist might be finishing up with another client, putting the finishing touches on your design, or grabbing food between appointments).
