Please make sure you understand our deposit policy. All deposits are non-refundable. Failure to provide adequate cancellation notice within 48 hours prior to your appointment time will result in loss of deposit and will go to the artist for the loss of their time. If we are notified 48 hours prior, your deposit will be saved on your account. If you change your mind or choose to cancel your appointment at any time and do not wish to get tattooed by our shop, the deposit will remain non-refundable but we may issue a gift card in place of a refund.

Health Concerns

Do you use clean needles?

Yes, all of our needles are single use and are properly disposed of after being used.

Can I give blood after a tattoo?

Yes, please talk with your donation center you are giving blood for the exact time between tattoo and donation. These times may vary from center to center.

What if I am pregnant or nursing?

No, it is unsafe for the child and mother. Plus, it is illegal in state of Nebraska.

When can I go swimming or tanning?

When your tattoo is completely done healing. The healing process can take up to a full month.

Can you tattoo over scars and stretch marks?

Yes (most of the time), there can be limitations to the amount of detail in the tattoo. Also take into consideration the age (is it done healing?) and texture (burns are harder than cuts). Best option is to swing by the shop for an artist to check it out.
