Estimates · Dublin
Know what the project involves before you commit.
Every estimate is specific to the project. We look at the drawing, size, placement and preparation involved, then go through the proposed cost with you. You can ask questions while the idea is still taking shape.
01
A subject, references, approximate dimensions and placement help us understand your request. Colour, fine detail, existing tattoos and the number of sittings can also affect the work involved.
Use the enquiry form to send those details. We’ll ask for more information where needed and discuss an initial estimate.
02
Once you accept the initial estimate, we arrange your consultation. This is where you and your artist develop the direction and confirm the scope of the project.
Changes to size, placement or detail can affect the estimate. For a sleeve, we’ll also explain the likely stages and how payment would be arranged before work begins.
03
Each session has its own deposit: 30% of that session’s price, up to €300. When we agree a date, we hold it while you pay the deposit, and the session is confirmed once it’s paid. The deposit comes off the price of that session, and you pay the rest in the studio on the day.
Please give at least 72 hours’ notice to move an appointment. Read our booking terms before paying, and contact us as soon as your circumstances change.
04
If you’re unsure how much detail to include or what size would work, tell us. The enquiry gives us a starting point for that conversation.
For the practical side of the appointment, read our first-tattoo guide. If your visit needs to fit around a trip, include your travel dates.
