Pricing
Honest Pricing — No Surprises
Custom tattoos are quoted at consultation. The numbers below are real ranges, not bait. Every quote includes HST. Every deposit applies to the final cost.
Studio Minimum
$135 (HST included)
Smallest possible work — covers setup, consumables, and a clean booking slot.
Hourly Rate
$180–$250/hr (HST included)
Rate depends on the artist. Confirmed at your free consultation.
Other booking options
Flat-Rate Sessions
For pieces with predictable scope, we book a flat rate per session instead of by the hour. Your artist will offer this if it fits the work.
Full-Day Sessions
A single 6–8 hour booking, useful for larger projects. Priced as a discounted flat rate vs. hourly.
Financing via iFinance
For larger projects (sleeves, back-pieces), we offer monthly payment plans through iFinance. Ask us at consultation and we will share the application link.

Is the deposit refundable?+
Deposits are non-refundable but apply 100% to your final cost. Cancel or reschedule with 7+ days notice and the deposit moves with you to the new booking.
What's included in the price?+
Design time, the session itself, all consumables (needles, ink, sterile setup), aftercare instructions, and the first touch-up if needed within 90 days. HST is always included.
Do you offer financing?+
Yes — we partner with iFinance for monthly payment plans on larger projects. Ask us at consultation for the application link. Cash, credit, debit, and E-Transfer also accepted at the studio.
