Prices vary significantly based on factors such as size, preferred body placement, and detail. While we do not charge an hourly rate and will always work within the confines of whatever budget you set, it’s important to remember that we do have a shop minimum of $100.
No. Per Illinois law, you must be at least 18 years old and you must be able to provide us with a valid form of photo identification prior to being tattooed.
Currently, we do not offer piercings at our establishment.
Short answer: your body, your choice.
Long answer: Numbing creams/sprays, while sometimes effective for certain individuals, are never something I will supply or recommend. It’s important to understand that numbing agents interfere with your body’s natural response to trauma & thorough research on your part should be done before purchasing any products. While your decision to use a numbing spray/cream won’t stop me from tattooing you, it would be best to let me know which product you’ve applied to your skin before we get started.
If you’re sick - and especially if you’re on any antibiotics - it’s best to reschedule your appointment.
Unless we’re doing a special “walk-in” event, we work primarily by appointment only. We’ve found that this allows us the opportunity to provide our clients with extremely flexible scheduling options that include nighttime and weekend spots (most holidays, too)!
Prior to coming in, we recommend you eat a healthy meal, ensure you’re well-hydrated, and freshly showered. Please do not feel obligated to shave the area you’ll be having tattooed as shaving is part of Derek’s usual prep. If you have any medical conditions, allergies, or concerns that could potentially interfere with the tattoo process, it is important that you let us know immediately. Your overall well-being is our top priority and we will do everything we can to ensure your comfort & safety during your visit.
