Question 1

Where can I park?

Accepted Answer

Various parking options around Winchester Road. Pointout Road, hill lane are both free all day. Directly outside and up Winchester Road is free for 2 hours - (3hours free with a blue badge)

Question 2

Can I bring a friend with me?

Accepted Answer

We reccomend you come to your appointment alone, however please discuss with your artist is you would like to bring someone along with you. Please try not to bring the whole family, as space can’t accommodate for this.

Question 3

What happens if I am late for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Each artist has their own policy regarding this, but as a studio environment, if you are more than 20 minutes late, unfortunately your artist may ask you to rebook, as they may have clients after you. If you are running late, please let your artist know at the earliest convenience.

Question 4

I am an early person, where can I wait if I am early?

Accepted Answer

We would rather you be early than late! However, your artist may still be with the client before you. Please avoid being more than 10 minutes early, as your artist needs time to set up for your tattoo. We have a small waiting area in the room, however no “waiting area” so if you are super early… Sainsbury’s is up the road, various shops, uptons of basset or the common is also local.

Question 5

Will I need to do a consent form?

Accepted Answer

Yes, consent forms are mandatory for tattooing. You’ll be provided with a form to complete by your artist, and don’t forget your ID if this is the first time being tattooed with us! (Tattoos are 18+ only)

Question 6

I can’t find childcare for my appointment, can I bring my child along with me?

Accepted Answer

If you’re stuck for childcare, please re arrange with your artist when you will be able to come without your child. The studio is an over 18 environment, and a space where needles are used. So it is unsafe to bring your child. We are insured for over 18s only.

Question 7

Somethings come up and I need to rebook my appointment, how do I do this?
