All Tattoo Information 

We are not your average tattoo shop. At our studio, we believe the tattooing process should be as refined
as the art itself. We are dedicated to providing a comfortable, relaxing, luxury environment where every
client receives our signature PIPER-jade service throughout all our services.


Pricing, Custom Work, & Specials


Studio Minimum: Our shop minimum is $60. This serves as our starting baseline for small,
straightforward pieces.


Custom Designs & In-House Flash: We proudly offer completely custom designs tailored to your
vision, as well as a curated selection of unique, ready-to-go in-house flash sheets.


No-Guesswork Quotes: Because custom pieces vary based on size, placement, and design details,
our talented artists always provide clear, transparent quotes ahead of time so there is never any
guessing at checkout.


Tiny Tattoo Tuesday Deal


Looking for something small? Every week we host our popular Tiny Tattoo Tuesday special:
The Deal: Get 2 tiny tattoos for just $65!


The Rules: This special is strictly per-person (cannot be split between two people) and is limited to
placements on the arms and legs only. If you request a different placement area, an additional fee
may be applied depending on the location.


Design Options: This deal applies exclusively to design options selected directly from our pre-drawn
tiny tattoo flash sheets. If you would like a custom tiny design on Tuesday, you are absolutely welcome
to book it, but it will be quoted at our regular custom tattoo rates.


Booking Options & Consultations


We happily accept walk-ins anytime during regular business hours based on daily artist availability.
However, if you are looking to get a custom piece, we highly advise booking an appointment in advance.
This ensures our artists have all the necessary design details and dedicated time required to perfect your
request.

Seamless Consultations


Most of our consultations are handled quickly and conveniently via text message, though we are more
than happy to schedule an in-person consultation if you prefer. For either option, please make sure you
have the following information ready:


Any design or style image references.
The desired size of the tattoo measured cleanly in inches.
Your preferred placement on your body.
Whether you want the piece in black/grey or color.


Custom Appointment Types


Our online booking platform is structured to give you complete flexibility. You can choose from the
following appointment tracks:


Book with Any Available Artist: Perfect for flexible schedules or quicker pieces.
Book with Your Artist of Choice: Secure time directly with the specific artist whose style matches
your vision.


Book a Consultation: Map out your complex ideas with an artist first.


Book a Studio Touch-Up: Request a tune-up for a tattoo originally performed by one of our artists.
Book an Outside Touch-Up: Request a touch-up on a tattoo that was not originally done at our
studio. (Note: For outside work, we require an initial review. We will advise you to send us a clear
photo via text or stop by the shop in person so we can evaluate the piece.)
Important Artist Discretion Policy: Please note that for all touch-up requests (both our own work and
outside work), final approval is entirely at the artist's discretion. Just because the booking system
permitted you to select a timeslot does not mean the project is a 100% guaranteed go. The artist must
review the condition of the skin and the existing ink to ensure a touch-up can be safely and beautifully
executed.

Deposit & Touch-Up Pricing Structure


To respect our artists' time and creative scheduling, we utilize a straightforward deposit system. All
applicable deposits are deducted from your final bill at checkout.


New Tattoo Appointments: Requires a $20 non-refundable deposit which goes directly toward the
final cost of your tattoo at checkout.


Consultations: Always 100% Free. We can almost always provide an accurate quote via text unless
the design is highly complex, in which case we will invite you into the studio.
 

Studio Touch-Ups (Our Work): No deposit required. Touch-ups are completely complementary for
up to 6 weeks after your initial appointment. However, you must wait at least 4 weeks before
requesting a touch-up. (Why? Deep tissue tattooing takes a minimum of one full month to settle and
heal completely. Requesting adjustments before the 4-week mark can damage the healing skin.) The
artist will assess the tattoo in person to determine if a touch-up is truly necessary; if it is outside the 6-
week window or stems from poor aftercare, a fee may apply at the artist's final call.


Outside Touch-Ups (Not Our Work): Requires a $20 deposit which goes toward the piece at
checkout. The artist will review the existing tattoo to determine if it can be successfully reworked and
will provide a custom quote for the service.


Professional Aftercare Guidelines


While we provide a detailed, comprehensive physical aftercare sheet at the end of your session, your
immediate home routine is vital to the longevity of your ink.


Moisturizing: We highly advise using CeraVe Non-Scented Moisturizer (the blue bottle). Apply it in
very small, thin amounts exactly twice daily. Over-moisturizing can suffocate the tattoo and harm the
healing process, so keep the layers light.


Strict Healing Rules: Avoid picking or scratching scabs, keep the area out of direct sunlight, and
completely avoid submerging the tattoo in pools, hot tubs, lakes, or ocean water until it is 100%
healed.

Special Considerations: Hand Tattoos


We love doing hand tattoos, but we want our clients to be completely educated before taking the plunge.
We highly stress to all customers that hand tattoos are "maintenance" tattoos.


Why They Fade: The skin on your hands stretches constantly, sheds cells much faster than the rest
of your body, and is exposed to constant washing, friction, and sunlight. Because of this, ink in the
hands naturally breaks down and fades significantly faster than ink placed elsewhere.


Expect Future Touch-Ups: Hand tattoos will eventually need touch-ups to maintain their crispness
over time. Because they are universally recognized as high-maintenance placements, we
unfortunately do not offer free touch-ups on hand tattoos. This policy applies right from the start, as
the high-wear nature of the placement requires ongoing studio time.
 

Tattoo FAQ & Studio Policies


I can’t make my appointment anymore! Can I reschedule?
We understand that life happens! We allow a one-time reschedule change per deposit. Because our
artists block out large, exclusive windows of their workday for you, we cannot continually move
appointments around. If you need to change your date, please let us know as early as possible so we
can move your slot.


What happens if I miss my appointment or need to cancel entirely? Can I get a refund?
No. All appointment deposits are strictly non-refundable. If you absolutely cannot make your scheduled
time, we encourage you to use your one-time reschedule option. If you miss the appointment entirely
(no-show) or cannot pick an alternative date, your deposit is forfeited to compensate the artist for the
time they set aside and the design work they prepared.


Can I get a free touch-up on my hand tattoo?
As noted in our hand tattoo guidelines, we do not offer complementary touch-ups on hands. Due to the
high-friction nature of the skin on your hands, these pieces require routine, paid maintenance. Our
artists or booking details will always highlight this before your needle hits the skin.
