FAQ

Common questions.

If you want to book an appointment please visit Nadine Harvey booking page. Make sure to fill out the form as best as possible, this will enable us to process your request quickly and efficiently. She schedules appointments a maximum of one month in advance.

It depends on the tattoo, but all tattoos start at $250. Final price is dependent on size, detail of the design, and finally location on the body where it will be placed. The cost of the tattoo is based per piece, not per hour.

In order to book, a $100 deposit is required. It can be sent through Venmo or Zelle. First person to send deposit will secure date and time requested. Deposit goes toward the total cost of your tattoo. All deposits are non refundable.

We recommend that you eat well before you come in, and remember to stay hydrated. If you start to feel woozy, have a soda. Sugar is your friend in this situation. It’s best not to party the night before because alcohol can increase bleeding for up to 24 hours. Blood also dilutes our pigments, affecting both the appearance of your tattoo as well as the healing process. Remember to stay calm and cool, you’re in good hands.
