Starting a tattoo booking and the deposit policy

To begin a tattoo project you must complete Studio 28’s Tattoo Appointment Request Form; a studio team member will reply to schedule a consultation and session. The studio requires a $100 deposit to secure the date and time, which is applied toward the total tattoo cost.

The booking route is the primary way the shop confirms artist availability and sets the appointment; the form response process is not handled on Sundays according to the studio guidance.

Walk-ins, hours and how pricing is structured

Studio 28 welcomes walk-in tattoos Monday through Saturday afternoons and offers piercings daily within posted hours, but artist availability for walk-ins is not guaranteed so booking is recommended for specific dates or complex designs.

The shop posts a $100 minimum charge for any tattoo and uses a $200 hourly rate for larger pieces; tattoos two hours or less are typically priced as a flat rate while longer projects are billed hourly.
