Questions?
01 Does it hurt? +
It feels like a hot cat scratch that lasts a while. Bone and inner-bicep areas sting most; fleshy spots like the thigh and outer arm are easier. Most people sit far longer than they expected to.
02 How much does a piece cost? +
We charge by the piece, not the hour. Small pieces start at £120; sleeves and back work typically run £1,200–£3,500 depending on size and detail. Your artist gives a fixed quote after the consult.
03 Do you do walk-ins? +
No. Every piece is custom and every slot is booked. We don't have a flash wall. If you want a walk-in experience, we're not the right studio.
04 How do I book? +
Fill out the booking form below with your idea and the artist you'd like. We reply within 48 hours with a consult slot. Deposits are £60–£120, non-refundable, deducted from your final piece.
05 Will my tattoo fade? +
Black holds for decades. Color fades faster under UV. We'll send you home with aftercare and a sunscreen recommendation — that's all you need.
