Complimentary Consultations
Consultations are completely complimentary with no obligation, and typically last 30-minutes to 1-hour depending on the size of the design. This is a great opportunity to ask a tattoo artist any questions you may have - this also allows the tattoo artist to understand any ideas you may have in-order to develop conceptual artwork. Reference photos are always helpful.
Complimentary in-person ‘Design Review’ consultations are also available by request. This is a great chance to view and discuss the tattoo concept design with your artist a few days before your scheduled tattoo appointment and request any changes - larger tattoo designs may require a Design Review.
Tattoo Artists have varying styles, please let us know if you would like to change service providers during the consultation or within 48-hours of your tattoo appointment being scheduled.
