(Frequently Asked Questions)

  • Where are you located?

    I am currently located at Apollo Art Collective, in Mcminnville Oregon.

    415 NE THIRD STREET, MCMINNVILLE.

    *Right between “Humble Spirit” and “The Merry Artist”

  • What are your hours?

    I work Wednesday-Sunday, 12pm-6pm

    *I do not work on Mondays and Tuesdays, this includes answering booking requests, emails, or direct messages on Instagram/Facebook.

  • How do I book an appointment?

    You can book an appointment three ways:

    1. Send a booking request form for a custom design tattoo, Gum Ball tattoo, or tooth gem appointment through my website, by submitting a request on the homepage.

    2. Purchase Flash designs through my website.

    3. Send me an Email directly: athinlinestudioo@gmail.com

  • What is your rate?

    My rate is $150 an hour.

    I require a $50-$100 retainer (this applies to your final total) to secure your booking.

    *The shop has a $100 minimum per tattoo. (I usually offer a deal if you are getting more than one tiny tattoo)

    Price estimates are always given when booking a custom design. Flash designs are always pre-priced, and pricing for flash can be found on my website in the description.

  • When do your custom books open?

    My booking doesn’t open or close on a specific schedule, and is usually always open. But in the case that my books close, here is what it looks like so you can be ready:

    1. I send out my newsletter announcing the date and time my custom books will open.

    2. I will post a countdown reminder on instagram.

  • How far in advance do you book appointments?

    I only schedule 1-2 months in advance as to leave room for possible reschedules.

  • What forms of payment do you take for final payment?

    Cash is expected on the day of your appointment for the remainder of payment.

    *I can except credit/debit for final payments if needed but a 2.9% card processing fee will be added.

    *I only accept Cash, or Credit/Debit card.

  • What is a flash tattoo?

    Flash tattoos are a collection of pre-drawn and pre-priced tattoo designs made by a tattoo artist. Some flash tattoos are repeatable, meaning they can be tattooed multiple times on different people. Or some are non-repeatable, meaning they are only offered once.

    Most flash tattoos are drawn at a “minimum sizing” but can be sized larger upon request. Placement is usually up to the client, unless specified otherwise by the artist.

    Customizations are usually not available for flash designs, other than sizing, color preferences, or placement. But it never hurts to ask the artist!

    *Customizations like sizing, color, placement, etc. can change the pricing of the tattoo.

  • How do you price your flash designs?

    Flash designs are priced at a flat rate, which is provided when you click on each design. They are usually slightly discounted, as I took my own time to design them, and they are designs I really want to do.

    I price based off of size, placement, level of detail, technique required, drawing time, etc. The price of flash tattoos is always quoted before you book in the info section on of the piece on my website. The price online is based off the minimum sizing given. If you request the piece be enlarged, this will effect the price.

    The price you pay online for flash pieces is NOT the final total. It acts as your retainer for the piece and appointment, and goes towards the final total.

    As stated above, final prices for flash pieces are given in the info section of the flash piece you select on the website. This is the total amount you will owe.

  • What is your policy on retainers?

    I require a $50-$100 retainer before booking any appointment which will be deducted from your total cost.

    If you purchase flash designs online, that is your retainer fee, and the amount you pay online, is what will be deducted from your final payment.

    Retainers are non-refundable. Retainers can be moved over if you reschedule, but will be forfeited if you reschedule more than two times (a new retainer will need to be placed after the second reschedule). If you cancel your appointment your retainer will be lost, and you will have to place a new one to book again.

    *If the artist needs to reschedule or cancel your appointment for personal or emergancy reasons (like being sick, or medical/family emergency) none of the above applies, and if canceled you will be refunded.

  • Do you tattoo in color?

    I prefer to tattoo in black and grey, but do offer color flash tattoos every now and then. I am also open to doing color for custom pieces, as long as it is a design I am comfortable with doing so.

  • What type of custom tattoo requests do you typically prioritize?

    I like to work on medium/large scale pieces the most, but am open to smaller concepts.
