Texas law says *You must be 18 to get a tattoo*.
Minors may receive a piercing when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
Proper picture identification and proof of relation is required.
Tolerances for pain vary from person to person. In some situations
certain individuals may have a higher pain threshold than others.
Generally the average person will experience some level of discomfort. Each spot feels a little bit different, and yes, some spots are a little more
tender, but we encourage you to get your tattoo where you really want it.
It only hurts for a little while, it will be there forever. There is no
anesthetic available in a tattoo shop. You must be a licensed doctor to
administer anesthetic.
We employ hospital grade steam sterilization procedures. This system
incorporates pressure and heat to destroy viruses and bacteria. Dry heat
sterilization is legal in Texas but not as effective. Everything
that comes in contact with the skin is single use and disposable. An
ultrasonic cleaner is used on all articles that are sterilized. An
ultrasonic cleaner uses sound waves to clean instruments.
Yes. All tattoo and piercing needles are single service only.
Yes. We can work with just about anything you bring in. We can redraw
or modify your designs and ideas to make your perfect, one-of-a-kind tattoo.
Yes, but the piercer will not use your jewelry if he feels it would be
detrimental to your piercing, and does not guarantee the quality or purity of
the materials used to fabricate your jewelry.
Piercing prices, including jewelry, range from $20 to $60 (genital piercings
extra)
Tattoo prices begin at $40 and are limited only by your imagination.
No.
No. If you are interested in a custom design it is recommended
that you make an appointment with an artist so that he has several days to work
on you design.

Leave your bandage on 3-4 hours. Wash 3 times daily with liquid
antibacterial soap. Use antibiotic ointment twice daily for the first
three days, then switch to Lubriderm lotion as needed. Do not
over-moisten. Do not allow to dry out. Do NOT pick or scratch your
tattoo. No sun, tanning, swimming, or soaking for 2 weeks. Showers are OK
and encouraged.

Oral piercings should be cleaned with an alcohol free mouthwash such as
Biotene or Tech 2000.
Non oral piercings should be cleaned with a mild liquid antibacterial or
antimicrobial soap. Soaks with sea salt and warm water speed up healing and help
clear up problems you may have such as irritation. Alcohol, peroxide,
iodine, and ointments should never be used!

A tattoo is made up of several different components. The three major
ones are the outline, the black shading, and the color. Each of these
requires a different machine set up and technique. The outlines should be
consistent in thickness and definition. The shading should be smooth and
have good transition from dark to light. The color should be laid in solid
without 'holidays'. These qualities combined should result in a tattoo
that will stand the test of time.
