Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I book an appointment?
All bookings are made through our website at sinstarink.com. You’ll need to fill out a request form with your idea, placement, and size before we can schedule your session.
2. What types of appointment blocks do you offer?
We offer several session lengths to fit your needs:
Mini Appointment (1 hour) – Great for small tattoos.
Medium Appointment (2 hours) – For moderately sized pieces.
Half Day Appointment (3 hours) – Ideal for medium detail work.
Full Day Appointment (6 hours) – Best for larger or more intricate tattoos.
3. Do I need to leave a deposit?
Yes. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your appointment and will go toward the final cost of your tattoo.
4. Can I see the design before the appointment?
No. Designs are created and finalized just before your appointment. Sharing them early tends to dilute the creative process and complicate revisions based on outside opinions.
5. What should I do to prepare for my tattoo session?
Eat well, stay hydrated, avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment, and get a good night’s sleep. No drinking in the shop or before your session. If you show up drunk, you'll be asked to leave and will lose your deposit. Arrive clean, freshly showered, and ready to be tattooed. Wear comfortable clothes appropriate for the area being worked on (e.g., a sleeveless shirt for a sleeve). If you're booked for a longer session, feel free to bring snacks.
6. Can I bring a friend or child with me?
Only one guest is allowed with you during your appointment. No children under 16 are allowed in the shop, no exceptions. This is a tattoo studio, not a daycare. Anyone bringing children will be asked to leave, and if that means ending your appointment, your deposit will be forfeited.
7. Do you accept walk-ins?
No, we do not accept walk-ins. All appointments are by request only. However, we do offer 1-hour blocks for small tattoos, and short-notice availability is sometimes posted on our social media.
8. What happens if I need to reschedule?
Life happens. You can reschedule with at least 48 hours’ notice. Short-notice cancellations may result in a lost deposit.
9. How much will my tattoo cost?
Pricing depends on size, placement, and detail. Fill out the booking form with your idea and we’ll give you a quote when we review it.
10. How do I care for my tattoo after the session?
You’ll be sent detailed aftercare instructions. Healing properly is just as important as the tattoo itself, so follow them closely.
11. What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash is preferred, but we also accept card payments. Tips are always appreciated but never expected.
12. Do you offer gift cards?
Yes! Gift cards can be purchased online or in the studio and make a great gift for any tattoo lover.
