Do you do piercings?
No, but we highly recommend our friend, Eric, at Virtue and Vice.
How old do you have to be to get tattooed?
In the state of Georgia, you must be 18 years old to get tattooed. You must also provide a valid photo id such as a passport, drivers license, state issued identification card. No ID, No tattoo, No Exception.
How do I make an appointment?
Once you have viewed the portfolios and picked an artist call, email or stop by the studio to set up your free consultation. During the consultation you and the artist will go over the ideas and from there set up your appointment and the artist will collect your deposit. We will never request a deposit through DM or Cash App/Venmo services. Don’t get scammed by sending money to someone you do not know and without a deposit form in place.
Do I have to make an appointment?
No, we do take walk-in tattoos when time allows. We can not guarantee availability for walk-ins as they are first come, first served. Find more about walk-in versus appointments HERE.

Is a deposit required to make an appointment?
Yes! Deposits range from $100.00 to $500.00 depending on the size of the work to be done. Deposits are non-refundable, and come off the price of the tattoo on the final session.

All appointments required a 48 hour notice to be rescheduled. Failure to give a 48 hour notice will result in the forfeit of your deposit and you will be required to leave another deposit in order to make a new appointment.
Can I bring someone with me?
No. Our studio space is reserved for people getting tattooed and updated safety procedures you must come alone.
