How Do I Book An Appointment for a Tattoo?
Black Hive Ink & Arts offer free consultations prior to booking appointments. We believe it’s important for both the artist and you to meet, speak, and discuss ideas to ensure that you are paired with the right person.
How Much Will My Tattoo Cost?
The cost of your tattoo will depend on several factors, including size, design complexity, and location on the body. We encourage customers to discuss pricing with our artist during the consultation.
How Should I Prepare for My Tattoo Appointment?
We recommend customers eat a meal before their appointment and avoid consuming any type of alcohol or drugs since both can thin your blood. Make sure to wear comfortable clothing that allows the artist to have easy access to the area that will be tattooed.
Can I Bring in My Own Design for The Tattoo?
You can bring your own designs, but we prefer to discuss your vision prior to tattooing the design. This helps us make sure you are satisfied with the results and that the process is executed effectively.
How Long Will My Tattoo Take to Heal?
The healing time for your tattoo can vary depending on the size, location, and complexity of your tattoo. On average tattoos take about 2-4 weeks to fully heal, but this is something your artist will discuss with you after your design is complete!
What Should I Do to Take Care of My Tattoo During the Healing Process?
Caring for your new tattoo is crucial and our artist will go over instructions to make sure your tattoo heals properly. Typically, aftercare involves washing the tattoo gently with soap and water, applying moisturizer, and avoiding the sun. For a detailed description of what the healing process should look like.
Can I Bring a Friend or Family Member With Me to My Tattoo Appointment?
Yes! Customers can bring a friend or family member to provide support during the tattoo process. Discuss with your artist during the consultation and we can make the necessary accommodations.
Does it Hurt?
Every customer's experience is different and the pain threshold varies by person. Yes tattoos hurt, but the pain is usually manageable. Depending on the area you would like your tattoo can determine how much pain you will experience, due to areas of the body that are more sensitive than others.
What Are Permanent Makeup Tattoos?
Permanent makeup tattoos are a cosmetic tattooing technique that involves applying pigments to the skin to enhance the appearance of eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips. To properly perform this technique, our artists have extensive experience and certifications.
