Tattoo Walk-Ins:
Walk-in tattoo availability varies daily. If you are looking for a same-day tattoo appointment, please call or email the shop, or contact the artist directly. Clients with appointments will take priority over walk-in availability, unless a walk-in tattoo event is happening.
Walk-in tattoo events will be announced on our Facebook and Instagram. They operate on a first-come, first-served basis, and the event details will be specified in the post.
James offers a walk-in day event on the first Saturday of every month starting at 11:00 AM.
Bear offers a walk-in day event on the first Friday of every month starting at 12:00 PM.
Piercing Walk-Ins:
Walk-in piercings are available seven days a week, and sign-up begins at noon when we open. We operate on a first-come, first-served basis and take as many clients as possible until our piercers are fully booked. When you sign up, we will give you an approximate appointment time. Our counter staff will assist you with paperwork, jewelry selection, and any questions. You must sign up in person; we do not accept sign-ups over the phone or by email. However, you can have another person come in and sign you up for a walk-in piercing appointment.
We cannot guarantee walk in availability, as foot traffic varies daily. To make sure we have time to service all of our clients, piercing appointments are also available. If the piercers who take appointments have gaps in their schedule, they will offer walk-in slots for more availability.
Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or a legal guardian. The State of Alaska requires all clients (including minors) to have a state or government-issued photo ID. We can accept state IDs, permits, military dependent cards, tribal cards if they have a photo, and passports. These documents are also required for inserting or removing jewelry and downsizing.
A parent or legal guardian MUST be in the shop to sign off on our paperwork and be present throughout the appointment. If the parent and child have different last names, we require documentation to prove guardianship (birth certificate, marriage license, divorce paperwork, guardianship paperwork). We can accept digital images of this paperwork as well.
We CANNOT accept school IDs, expired IDs, or birth certificates on their own. If you have further questions, please call or email us.
