FAQ's
Please read our Frequently Asked Questions before contacting us as most General queries are answered below.
Appointments
Do I need to make an appointment?
Yes, we are an appointment only Studio, this also applies to Consultations. Please use the 'Enquiry Form' on the website to start the appointment process.
How do I make an appointment?
All appointment enquiries must come through by using the Enquiry Form on the website, this is the most efficient way to make an appointment with us. The Enquiry Form contains all the important information we need from you before we can start the process of making an appointment, if you contact us via any of our Social Media pages you will be re-directed back to the website.
What is the waiting list?
Waiting times for appointments vary between all the Artists, it can be anywhere between 1 week and 3 months depending on who is your preferred Artist. We always recommend booking in advance if you have a specific date in mind.
Can I have a consultation?
For the majority of designs we are able to consult through phone/email, however for large scale projects we will usually invite you in for a consultation appointment.
Consultations are free of charge and no obligation, these are also done on an appointment only basis.
Do you have a price list?
Each Artist charges differently based on their level of work and experience. It is difficult to give you a price until we know exactly what it is you're having, after consultations we will do our best to give you an accurate price estimate.
Do you offer discounts?
We don't offer specific discounts however we do offer a set day-rate per Artist which ultimately gives you a small discount as you won't be charged hourly.
If you do have a maximum budget then please let us know and we will do out best to work with you.
Can I cancel my appointment?
We require a minimum of 48hrs notice for any appointment changes/cancellations, however if you have paid a booking fee/deposit this will be non-refundable. Please see our Terms and Conditions for more information.
Is there a Cancellation List?
Yes, you can be added to our cancellation lists, but it is important that you do not rely on this for an appointment as cancellations are rare.
Tattoo Designs
Do you design the Tattoo?
Yes, all our designs are completely custom based on the ideas you present us with. We only require ideas from you which will give us a better insight to what your expectations are and from that we will take care of the whole design process. Designs are only started once an appointment is in place and secured with a deposit.
Do you copy other tattoo designs?
Whilst we appreciate you may have seen a tattoo design you really like, we are a custom studio therefore we will not copy designs/other tattoos. However we will try and keep it as close as possible whilst respecting the other Artists work.
When can I see my design?
Our Artists are generally very busy, with designs needing to be completed everyday much of this is done in their own time away from the Studio. Designs are done in appointment order so for this reason your design may not be ready until around 48hrs before your appointment, however some of our artists will decide on the composition of your design on the day of your appointment - as this is only possible in person. They will not send a design beforehand.
Getting Tattooed
How old do I need to be for a tattoo?
You must be 18 years or older.
I'm under 18, can I get tattooed with my Parents permission?
No, UK law stipulates you must be 18 years of age before you are legally allowed to be tattooed.
You must bring Photo ID to your appointment, we will be unable to tattoo you without a photographic form of ID if you look under the age of 25.
Are tattoos painful?
All tattoos come with some discomfort and some areas can be more painful than others. It also depends on the individuals pain threshold, as this varies from person to person. You can always guarantee some discomfort, its important to be relaxed and if you have any worries or concerns about the pain aspect please speak to us.
Can I use numbing cream?
We don't recommend the use of numbing products, they can sometimes alter the texture and cause irritation of the skin. This can make the tattoo process more difficult for the Artist therefore affecting the overall look and healing of your new tattoo. Please speak to us before using any numbing products or we may not be able to tattoo you. Numbing creams are widely unregulated and some of the ingredients can cause severe allergic reactions.
Are you able to do cover-ups?
Whilst some tattoos are coverable others are not, we will need to see you to assess your current tattoo. We will then decide whether it is possible for us to cover*, or we will put you in touch with our Laser Technician to discuss removal or fading of the tattoo beforehand. *Please note not all our Artists will take on cover-ups.
Can I bring someone with me?
Due to our Studio being on the smaller side we don't have room for others in the areas where we tattoo. We need to make sure our Artist's are completely comfortable whilst tattooing, and they are unable to do this if the space they work in is cramped. Children under the age of 18 are not permitted in the Studio.
What Inks do you use?
Only the highest quality and fully tested tattoo inks, vegan friendly also. Speak to our Team if you have any concerns about the products we use.
