Do you think they have tap to pay at all? My wallet got stolen a week ago and I don’t have a card to get money out of the machine. Do you think I should just go to Giant to get cash back from the machine or? V worried 😭
How does pricing for tattooing work? Do artists set their own prices? Does each artist bring a card machine? Cash?
Hello, yes every artists has his own prices. And no, most of them will not come with a card machine. Better to bring cash. Cheers.
Im 17, my mom will be w me.. can i get tatted ?
Yes could get tattooed with a parental consent. But it still depends on the artist. In any case, we strongly advice, to be at least 18 years old to get a tattoo. Cheers.
No one under the age of 18 is permitted to be tattooed at this event. The artists who attend sign a contract that they will not tattoo anyone under 18, before they are allowed to proceed with tattooing at the event.
Would love to get tatted there.
