Frequently asked questions

How old do I have to be to get tattooed?

In the state of Georgia, you must be 18 years old with a valid ID to get tattooed. We make no exceptions to this and will not tattoo minors, even with parental consent. 

Do tattoos hurt?

Yes. No. Maybe so? It's really hard to say. Certain parts of the body will hurt more than others, but everyone has a different threshold for pain. It's not always going to be comfortable, but it's not so unbearable that you'll never come back for more. 

I know walk-ins are available, but can I still set up an appointment?

Yes! Walk-ins are always available, but so are appointments. 

Can I bring a friend with me to my appointment? 

Absolutely. We want you to feel comfortable, but we do ask that you don't come with a crowd (unless everyone is getting tattooed or pierced). It is distracting for the artist and other clients. One person may sit with you while you get tattooed, but others must sit in our waiting area. There are also a lot of great bars, restaurants, and shopping just outside our door, which is way more fun than waiting on someone to get tattooed! 

How much will my tattoo cost?

Our shop minimum is $100, so you can always expect to spend at least that. Many factors determine the cost of a tattoo, including size, placement, and level of detail. Please let your artist know if you have a specific budget.

Can I see my tattoo before my appointment? 

Our crew works hard to prepare for your appointment. We do not show clients tattoo designs prior to appointments but do allow for changes to be made at your appointment. We encourage you to speak up and let us know if there is something you don't like - it's going to be on you forever! Our artists will use their years of professional experience and tattoo knowledge to let you know what may or may not work in your desired design should you wish to make any changes. 

Do you do coverups?

Yes. We highly encourage you come see us in-person to talk to an artist first about cover-up options. 

What forms of payment do you accept?

Please ask your artist about their preferred payment method.

Do you offer piercings?

Yes! For piercing questions, please contact Parker
