How Old do you have to be to get a tattoo?

You MUST be 18 to get tattooed, and you must have a valid ID (please bring it with you). It’s Georgia state law. There’s no getting around it, and there are absolutely NO exceptions. And no, a parent can’t “sign” for a person under 18.

How much does it cost?

Prices depend on which artist you’re working with and what type of project. Non-refundable deposits are required to book an appointment with any artist and range from $80-$200. Prices are as follows:

Cody - Charges by the piece

What does “Books Open” and “Books Closed” mean?

Booking appointments too far ahead of time can get pretty stressful and can make it more difficult to complete large projects. So, sometimes our artists “close their books” for new clients/projects. This keeps clients from having to wait too long for a 2nd or 3rd session on a big piece and takes a little stress off of the artist. Once they’re ready to start booking new appointments they’ll make a post on their Instagram accounts that says “Books Open.”
