Process

How a consult works

  1. 01

    A lightbulb surrounded by small symbols for ideas

    Meet

    Share references and talk placement. Bring questions. This is your time.

  2. 02

    A hand sketching a design in a notebook

    Plan

    Size, style, cost range, and timeline. Honest feedback. No obligation to book that day.

  3. 03

    Two hands making a pinky swear

    Match

    We connect you with the artist whose work fits, or we confirm the person you already wanted.

  4. 04

    A medical bag, bandages, and scissors

    Next step

    Book a session, schedule a follow-up sketch, or take time to think. You leave with a plan.

After you sit

What you leave with

The waiting room at Rose and Crown, with sofas and framed artwork
  • Honest design feedback: What works, what needs tweaking.
  • Placement advice, including how it will age on your body.
  • A price range before anyone takes a deposit.
  • A timeline: one session or several, and when to book.
  • An artist match, and why.

Deposits of $100–$200 are collected when you book the tattoo session, not for sitting down to talk. That is explained up front.

Artists

Who you might meet

Request someone, or let us match you. Neo-Traditional and lettering often go to Betty. Traditional and folk art often go to Shannon. Illustrative work often goes to Amanda or Jordan. Kate tattoos traditional and Black and Grey. Cover-up work depends on the old tattoo.

Questions

Are consults free?

Yes. Completely free, with no obligation to book a tattoo that day.

How do I book one?

Call 737-222-5355, use the contact page, or walk in during shop hours. Appointments are preferred so you are not waiting behind a session. If you are out of town, ask about a video consult.

How long does it take?

Most take 20 to 45 minutes. Simple ideas may need fifteen. Sleeves, cover-ups, or multi-session projects can run closer to an hour.

Can I get tattooed the same day?

Sometimes, if the design is simple, the artist has a slot, and you are ready. Custom, cover-up, and large work usually book later. We will not rush a tattoo to fill a chair.

Do consults include sketches?

Many include a rough sketch or a mockup, especially for custom work. Complex designs may need a follow-up. You approve the design before tattoo day.
