Frequently asked questions.

Do i need a deposit?

Yes, we require a deposit on all tattoos. The deposit will be a percentage of the final price. The deposit fee will be taken off the final price of the tattoo. Deposits are non-refundable, this is to compensate the artist’s time blocked for the tattoo.

Deposits can be made through Zelle, CashApp, or PayPal (+4% fee).

What if i can’t make my appointment?

If you can’t make your appointment, please contact us at least 48 hours beforehand to reschedule or cancel your appointment. In the case of rescheduling, the deposit can be rolled over onto a rescheduled date. If you are unwell, do not come. Please contact us, and we will reschedule you.

What is the Shop minimum?

The minimum charge for custom tattoos at our studio is $100. This means that regardless of the tattoo's size, the total cost will not be less than $100.

Can I bring a friend?

Certainly! You are welcome to bring one guest with you to your session. We kindly request that your guest respect our studio and the artist's workspace and adhere to health and safety standards throughout the tattoo process (please refrain from touching).

Do not bring children (any person under 18) or animals/pets to the studio.

How do i book an appointment?

To book with Sean, please navigate to the Contact page and fill out the form. In 24-48 hours you will receive a response for a consultation, and work with Sean to decide a booking date and time. Large-scale tattoos (back pieces, sleeves, etc) may require an in-person consultation, however, if that is not possible, we will try our best to accommodate you.

Are walk-ins available?

Unfortunately, walk-ins are not available. As Sean is currently operating in a private studio, he is unable to take walk-ins at this time. Please use the Contact page to begin the process of booking an appointment with Sean.

How do i prepare for my appointment?

  • Please ensure you have an acceptable form of ID (driver’s license, passport, USPIC). We cannot accept IDNYC cards.

  • Make sure to eat, and hydrate on the day of your appointment. This policy is to prevent you from feeling dizzy or passing out during your tattoo.

  • Please bathe or shower on the day of your appointment.

  • Please dress appropriately for your appointment.

  • Do not drink alcohol, or show up under the influence of any substances on the day of your appointment. If you are under the influence, you will be rescheduled to ensure your safety.

  • Do not shave the area beforehand.

  • Please do not show up sick. If you are unwell, we will gladly reschedule the appointment. If you are visibly ill, the artist will cancel the appointment on the spot.

Cover-ups?

Yes, we welcome cover-ups. Please make sure to note if the tattoo is a cover-up during the consultation.

Do i need to tip?

Tips are not required, but always appreciated! Tipping is a way to show appreciation for the artists work, and to support their business.

Can i use numbing cream?

Numbing cream can cause complications with the application and healing of a tattoo. Please do not apply numbing cream without consulting the artist first.
