Frequently Asked Questions

Below are a few of our most frequently asked questions. If you have further questions, please contact us here!

Do you take walk-ins?

Yes, we do! However availability is limited, please call us beforehand to check on artist availability for that day/week.

Can I bring a friend with me to my appointment?

Yes, but we ask that you only bring one max! We have a very small shop with limited space. If you bring more than one friend they may be asked to wait up front in the lobby. 

What kind of payment methods do you accept?

Our artists accept cash (preferred) or Venmo. We do NOT accept cards, sorry!

Do you offer piercings?

We do NOT do piercings, but we recommend:

Koi Piercing Studio

Salt Lake City

Koi is a dedicated piercing-only studio with decades of combined experience. This is where our own artists go to get pierced, and we can’t recommend them enough! They have female several piercers, all members of The Association of Professional Piercers (APP).

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Please eat a healthy meal before your appointment and drink lots of fluids to stay hydrated. Get a good nights rest the night before and avoid drinking alcohol within 24 hours of your appointment. Bring snacks, water, a sweater, and any other items that will help you feel more comfortable during your appointment. We do have some snacks and drinks here at the shop for clients. For more information on how to prepare for an appointment, check out our blog post here!

Do you tattoo 16 or 17 year olds?

Some artists will and some won’t - those that do will require a birth certificate or passport and another form of ID as well as parental consent. The parent/guardian must not leave during the duration of the appointment. 

What is your pricing?

Our shop minimum is $80. Our artists typically charge by the hour (exceptions occur) ranging from $150-$200 an hour. Consultations are always free! 

Our artists accept cash (preferred) or Venmo. We do NOT accept cards, sorry!

Do you do cover-ups?

Yes, we do! Whether you’re looking for a cover-up, rework, blast over, or blackout, our artists are happy to refresh or cover an old tattoo. Tattoo options (subject matter, colors, design, etc.) may be more limited for cover-ups. Please contact us if you’d like to discuss cover-up options.
