Tattoo FAQ's
Do I Need to Pay a Booking Fee?
Yes — a booking fee is required at the time of booking. This secures your appointment date and will be deducted from the total cost of your tattoo on the day of your session.
What is the Minimum Age to Get Tattooed?
You must be 18 years or older to get a tattoo.
It is against the law in Queensland to tattoo anyone under the age of 18, regardless of parental permission. No exceptions!
All clients must bring valid identification with them on the day of their appointment.
Do You Accept Walk-Ins?
Yes — we do accept walk-ins when time permits. However, availability can be limited, so we recommend booking in advance to secure your spot and avoid disappointment.
How Do I Book an Appointment?
You can book an appointment in any of the following ways:
- Social Media – Send us a message with a description of your tattoo idea. Please include the size, placement, and any reference pictures.
- Email – Provide details of your design, along with the size, placement, and reference images.
- Enquiry Form – Fill out our tattoo or piercing enquiry form, available on our website.
We do our best to respond as quickly as possible, but please be patient as response times can vary.
How Much Will a Tattoo Cost?
Tattoo prices vary depending on the artist and the complexity of the design.
Our studio has a minimum charge of $165.
Half-day and full-day session rates depend on the artist — please contact us directly for more information.
Do You Tattoo Fingers and Palms?
Not all artists in our studio offer finger or palm tattoos. Please enquire during your initial booking to confirm.
Can I Get a Tattoo While Pregnant or Breastfeeding?
For your safety and the health of your baby, we do not tattoo individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Do You Offer Touch-Ups?
Once your tattoo has fully healed (around 4–6 weeks), you may notice small areas that need a touch-up. As each artist handles touch-ups differently, please contact your artist directly to discuss their process and any associated costs.
Please note: tattoos on areas such as fingers, hands, and feet are more likely to fade and may require additional touch-ups compared to other placements. Contact your artist directly.
What Forms of Payment Do You Accept?
We accept cash, card, and Afterpay. Cash is strongly preferred, so please bring cash where possible.
Can I Bring a Friend With Me?
Yes, you may bring one guest, but they must remain in the waiting area during your appointment.

Yes — gift vouchers are available for purchase in-store.
