    Home Frequently Asked Questions

    You've Got Questions... We've Got Answers

    There is a lot to know about tattooing and piercing.  As a custom tattoo shop, we get some of these questions often.

    Please have a look below and if you have a question that we haven’t answered, please contact us and we are happy to help!

    Tattoo Questions

    Do you tattoo Minors? How about with parental/guardian consent?

    Sorry, no.  We only tattoo adults, 18 years old or older.  NO exceptions.

    How much does a tattoo cost at YFT?

    Our shop rate is $150/hr with a shop minimum of $80.

     

    Do you take walk-ins?

    Yes! If we are not already booked up, feel free to call and ask!

    Can someone draw something original for me?

    Yes! We are a custom shop. All of our Artist’s can draw you an original and unique tattoo design based on any reference pictures you have and how you envision your tattoo looking. They will draw your tattoo once your appointment is booked and you have placed a deposit.

    Can I see my design beforehand?

    If you would like to see your design beforehand you may book an “Art check” approximately a week before your tattoo appointment. At your Art check you can go over the rough draft of your design with your Artist and make any changes necessary.

    Do you sell aftercare?

    We offer an organic tattoo balm at the shop for $14 that can be applied the entire healing process. We also send you home with a tattoo aftercare recommendation sheet.

    Should I tip?

    Like any service, a tip is not expected. It is a nice gesture to show that you appreciate your artist’s time and talent.

    What is a consultation?

    A consultation is a free 10-15 min conversation that you can book with the artist of your choice. It is an excellent way for you to sit down face to face with your artist and share ideas. Reference pictures are great! After a consultation your artist will be able to tell you a rough estimate of how long it might take/cost.

    What should I bring to my tattoo appointment?

    Bring your VALID government issued photo ID (State ID, Drivers License, Drivers Permit, Passport, Military ID) or Tribal ID. It is important to eat before your appointment and stay hydrated. Wear or bring comfortable clothing that you can get tattooed in and do not mind getting ink on. Last but not least, bring your payment of choice, either cash or credit card (we do not accept checks or American Express).

    Can I pay with a credit card?

    Yes, however we do not take American Express.

    Do I need to make an appointment?

    Walkin’s are welcome but an appointment is the best way to get exactly what you want, when you want it.

    When should I call the shop?

    We are open 7 days a week from 11-7, if we do not answer leave your name and number and we will call you back as soon as possible!

    Does it hurt?

    Yes, but it is different for everyone.

    Do you do cover-ups?

    Yes, all of our artist’s do cover-ups. You can start by booking a free consultation with the Artist of your choice to talk about how you envision your tattoo looking. Then they can tell you what they can do and can not do with your existing design.

    How do I make an appointment?

    1. Look at our Artist’s portfolios to see which artist you would like to work with.
    2. Call the shop and make a free consultation.
    3. After your consultation, book your appointment on a day that works with your schedule and put down a deposit.

    What is a Deposit?

    A deposit is placed when you book a tattoo appointment and holds your appointment time. A deposit can be made with cash or a credit card for $50 or $100 depending on the Artist/size of your future tattoo. All deposits on tattoo appointments are NON-REFUNDABLE. Appointment cancellations must be made 48 hours in advance to avoid forfeiture of deposit. We are glad to hold over your deposit to reschedule your appointment with fair notice.

    How do I reschedule my appointment?

    Call the shop to reschedule your appointment. We ask that you give us 48 hours so that we can hold over your deposit, but we understand that emergencies happen and we appreciate the heads up so we can work with you.
