Because of our busy schedules, our artists typically start designing your tattoo a week before your tattoo appointment. The artist that you are working with will most likely send you a sneak peak of your design a few days before your appointment when confirming that you will be making it to your appointment.

Please see Preparing for Your Tattoo Page.

Each artist has different schedules, please check the artist page to see how to get on their books.
