As a walk-in tattoo studio, we understand that the very nature of our daily routine must change in response to the pandemic for the safety of our clients and crew.
Please keep in mind that you must wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth the entire time you are in the shop. Also, due to capacity restrictions, you will not be allowed to bring a guest.

A GREAT GENERAL GUIDELINE

Apply suggested ointment (Aquaphor) AS THIN AS POSSIBLE 2-3x a day (or overnight if you were given specific instructions) for 3 days.Wash yourself/tattoo normally.
After 3 days- continue moisturizing with your choice of skin lotion (recommended unscented) 2-3x/day for 4 total weeks.
***ONE MONTH TOTAL HEALING TIME***
We do, however at a small scale. It must be something that can be done in one session and can be drawn on the spot. We are trying to accommodate for as many people as possible.
*Please refer to the top of this page* we are taking same day (not days in advance) appointments during this time.
Currently we do not have a piercer at this location, please call over to Liquid Courage to make an appointment with Kassie or Melissa 402.926.4968
*NO PIERCINGS UNDER A MASK *
Tattoos:
Easy. 18 and older. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Absolutely. All needles, pigments, gloves, barrier films, etc. are discarded after use. Machines and clipcords are bagged while tubes are cleaned and autoclaved after every use. If you have any questions about the sterilization process, we would be happy to answer them. Our goal is to make sure that you are completely comfortable with the process.
Make sure you've had something to eat and be well rested. Other than that, we will just need a valid state issued photo ID and try to wear clothing that is comfortable and you don't mind getting ink on. DO NOT drink alcohol or take non-prescription drugs before getting tattooed. Avoid sun exposure, especially in the summer. We DO NOT tattoo sun burnt skin or skin that has had too much sun.
Being as we are a single session studio, we charge by piece. Factors include color, detail, size, etc. We only price in person.
