Cover ups can be one of the most challenging tattoos for an Artist. The best end results for a cover-up, is not knowing that it was a cover-up in the first place. We take the time to assess your current tattoo and the design ideas you have. We'll let you know if we think it wouldn't be successfully covered and work with you on options that you'll be very happy with. We take tremendous pride in our work and reputation. Your satisfaction is extremely important to us.

No piercings are offered at this time.

As per New York State Law, you must be 18 to get to get tattooed. This is due to local health rules and regulations. We are strict in our requirements to ensure proper age. For any tattoo you must present a valid drivers license or state photo ID.

More information you provide, the better. It's preferred to have images submitted with the designs you want. Our artists will take your ideas and infuse what they recommend to make your design even better. This will make it a custom piece designed just for you.

Prior to getting your tattoo, it's recommended not to drink the night before. Your blood thins out and makes it difficult for the Artist to do his work. Do not sun tan in any way. That includes, sun beds and creams. It is recommended you have a bite to eat prior. Having something in your system alleviates nausea. If you have hair on the tattoo area, you can shave. We'll also do a final shave to clean up the area with a disposable razor.

Tolerance to pain varies. Some may experience more than others. The best way to describe it, you'll experience a slight burning feeling or strong pinches to the skin. The larger the tattoo, the more intense is the sensation. However, we offer painless options for an additional fee.
