How is pricing determined?

Final pricing is set by the individual artist based on size, placement, style, and time. We help coordinate estimates during the booking process.

Yes. Note travel intentions in your inquiry and we'll coordinate scheduling. Some artists also offer guest spots in other cities.

Can I submit multiple tattoo ideas?

Can I reschedule?

Rescheduling is handled through AKB Future. Notice requirements vary by artist — see the deposit and cancellation policy for details.
