Frequently Asked Questions - Tattoos

 One guest is allowed in the area with you. Anyone else would have to wait in the waiting area.

We will consider tattooing minors ONLY in the presence of the parent or legal guardian per Arkansas State law.  We will not perform a tattoo on someone below 16 years of age without the required proof of relation between the minor and accompanying adult. This means IDs for both the minor and the adult and the birth certificate of the minor.

Generally, tattoos for minors will be limited to small or medium tattoos, but everything will be a case by case basis. 

Pain is relative! Some areas hurt more than others.

Yes! We carry Recovery numbing cream. 

The tattoo will cost $25 more with it, but just ask for it during your consultation!

You'll be asked to show up 30 mins early so that it can be applied and given adequate time to work.

If you walk-in instead of make an appointment, I cannot gaurantee time for numbing.

No. It is not recommended. Lidocaine, Tetricane, and Epinephrine are used during the procedure and go straight to the baby when it is in your system.
Infection after the procedure is always possible when not being very careful afterwards (remember no touching) and would also be given to the baby.

You cannot be currently undergoing chemotherapy and get this procedure. I would have to have a doctor's note emailed to me to even consider it. Chemo can even affect the skin.

You can still get work done. Your healing period will probably be a little longer.

These procedures are not recommended if you are taking them for a serious medical condition that thins the blood considerably. Thin blood will push pigment out of the skin, effectively rendering the procedure pointless and cause what does stay to be patchy.
If your doctor approves stopping a medication temporarily, I would need a note emailed to me from their office.

You may return to normal daily activities with the exception of:
No submerging in unclean water such as pools, lakes, ocean, hot tub, bathtubs, etc. for 30 days. No sunbathing, no tanning beds. No heavy sweating on the area. 

No! This is not good for ANY tattooing.

Everyone heals differently. Not everyone says that they scab. If this happens to you, it is normal for you.
