Common Questions

How Do I Book a Tattoo With You?
DM @pokestaytattoo on Instagram or email pokestaytattoo@gmail.com with a few sentences on what you have in mind, a rough size, the placement, and reference images if you have them. I'll reply with availability and a quote.
How Far Ahead Should I Book?
Small to medium pieces are usually a few weeks out. Larger custom work or sleeves can be a month or two depending on the queue. Reach out early if you have a specific date in mind (birthday, anniversary, trip to Wellington).
Do You Do Walk-ins?
Most of my work is booked ahead. I do open up occasional walk-in or short-notice slots, so keep an eye on @pokestaytattoo on Instagram for last-minute availability.
Do You Do Free Consultations?
For larger or more involved pieces, yes. I'd rather sit down and talk through the idea than guess from a DM thread. For smaller bookings the conversation usually happens in chat.
Is There a Deposit?
Yes. A small non-refundable deposit secures your booking date and comes off the final price on the day. The deposit covers the design and consult time before the session.
