Shop Rules

​

Don't come into the shop intoxicated.

We want you to be happy with the piece you leave with, and we know that alcohol can dampen decision-making skills. Not to mention, the blood-thinning effects of alcohol can affect the outcome of the tattoo, which will lead to necessary touch-ups later. It can also change how long your skin can retain ink as well as increase bleeding during the process-- and it's also against the law.

​

Don't bring children to your appointment alone.

We have lots of sharp objects lying around, and we're paying attention to other things. Of course, we understand that sometimes you can't help bringing the kiddo(s), so please bring another person to keep an eye on them in the lobby; children are not permitted in the tattoo rooms.

​

No smoking or vaping in the shop.

This is unsanitary, and we like to keep things clean for you.

​

Don't walk behind the front desk without permission.

There are a lot of things you don't want to know, and people who don't want strangers looking at them while they're being stabbed. 

​

Don't bring your entourage.

Bringing your mom, your significant other, or your pastor is fine. Just don't bring your whole squad, that's not goals.

​

DO NOT touch tattoo equipment or anything on tattoo station!

As experts in bloodborne pathogens, we know what can happen when you touch the things we work with. You don't, so please take care to not touch our tools!

​

Do silence cell phones.

If your phone rings while you're getting tattooed, your jolt to answer it could result in a pinup girl with a mustache. Let your artist know if you need to check it, and let them pause. It's for your own good. 

​

Do eat before you come in.

Just like having alcohol in your system, coming in without loading up on nutrients can affect your ability to sit for your tattoo, and could make you feel real bad. Don't make this mistake!
