I am typically at the shop Tues-Sat 11am-5pm. Exact availability can be discussed after filling out the "Book Now" form.

I charge 125/hr. The amount of time a tattoo takes varies greatly based on numerous factors. The best way to get a general estimate is to submit the "Book Now" form, or to email- arywestward@gmail.com

Here's what I recommend: -Your ID (18+ only) -Cash or other payment option (I accept cash or cashapp only) -Water (stay hydrated) -A full stomach (Eating a big meal helps prevent fainting) -A clean body (Deodorant, brushed teeth, fresh/comfy clothes) -Candy or snacks (Keep your blood sugar up!) -A distraction (headphones, a fidget toy, a guest, etc)

Yes, but please limit your guest number to 1, as studio space is limited. No one under the age of 12 is allowed in the shop, thank you for understanding.

On my own work, touchups are free for the first 6 months. For some placements, I do not offer free touchups, such as: hands, feet, fingers, inner lips, etc. This is because these placements are prone to healing issues. Touchups can still be done on those spots for a discounted rate.

Yes, I do not do the following styles/subjects: (If you are unsure if the tattoo you want is one of these styles, feel free to email me) -Tribal/dream-catchers/native caricatures -Realism (some exceptions) -Watercolor -Fineline (Specifically single needle work) -Geometric designs (some exceptions) -Racist/hateful/bigoted imagery (should be obvious)
