I love the tattoos obsessed with these beautiful art. love all artist.
Yes typically you need to make an appt. However if you are ore open and want something smaller you can go to the festival and you will have a chance of getting a same day tattoo or schedule it for the same weekend
Felt like there’s a lot of people there who will do cover ups or alterations. I’m sure you can find someone who will do it and while you could try setting up an appointment it’s probably best you just go in and see who’s work you like and see when they can take you. If they’re not currently working on someone they could do it in a soon as 20 minutes I’d think.
I need a touch up. Do I need an appointment there?
I have a dark blue butterfly on my foot that I’d like to have lightened with some turquoise and white? Something to give it some dimention and pop. Can someone help me?
I am looking for a Japanese or a Tibetan style stick and poke, is this possible to get here?
How do I get a list of tattoo artists that are going to be at the convention so I can make an appointment?
Wanting a negative space skull/flowers. Have photo reference. Looking for list of artists. I’d like to research some of their past art pieces. Looking forward to my first convention.
I have a negative tribal from my right elbow to my right shoulder. I need it covered badly. I was left unfinished after paying in full. I will have money in hand. Someone please help me out.
How much is it to normally get tattoos at these conventions? This will be my first one!
It depends on the size, where the tattoos are located, categories, an extension of complication, and tattooer also. Many factors contribute to the final cost.
do we need an appointment or we just show up and hop in a line?
