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?
Please ask your artist if this is something they can accommodate
Do you sell aftercare?
Not at the moment.
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 and book the actual tattoo appointment with you.
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).
Do you do piercings?
No we do not.
Can I pay with a credit card?
Yes, however we do not take American Express.
Do I need to make an appointment?
Yes. we do not take walk-ins.
When should I call the shop?
All our artists book independently so we do not do booking through the tattoo shop phone number but you are welcome to leave a message if needed.

Does it hurt?
Everyone has a different pain tolerance so it’s hard to say what will hurt and what won’t. It’s not the most comfortable experience but it’s always worth it for art that will last a lifetime.
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?
- Look at our Artist’s portfolios to see which artist you would like to work with. Check out the shops instagram page and the artists personal instagram pages for latest work.
- Email your artist. info@yourfleshtattoo.com for Matt. Robbyn at robbynbanx@gmail.com and Roger at rogerwankenobi@gmail.com
- 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 $100. 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?
Email your artist 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.
