We used to run a simple calendar, but the volume of business made us switch to a list system. Clients go on the list in the order they contact us. If you're new to getting tattooed, read the rest of the Information section first.
How the List Works
- Get on the listYour name, phone number, email and a rough description are added to the list.
- We reach outWe contact you 3-4 weeks before available dates. Can't make the dates offered? You move to the next rotation and we try again about 3-4 weeks later.
- Two strikesIf we contact you twice and you still can't make any of the dates, you'll need to reapply to the list.
- Leave a depositA non-refundable $20 deposit is required to be placed on the list. Deposits can be made by cash or card in the shop, or by card in the online store. No designing or drawing begins until a deposit is paid for each tattoo.
This keeps in-progress projects from overlapping with new ones, cuts down scheduling problems, and puts priority on multi-session clients. By contacting you closer to open slots, we can find a date that actually fits your schedule.
Heads Up
If you book now, it could be at least two years before you're scheduled for a specific date, due to the volume of ongoing projects. Looking for something small instead? Check out Walk-In Fridays.
The Best Way to Reach Us
Email is our preferred way to book and stay organized. Send your personal info, your tattoo idea, the placement, and several days/times you're available to rockandruthless@gmail.com. We answer within a few days. Unless you hear otherwise from us, your appointment is on.

Big work takes time.
Sleeves and back pieces run across multiple sessions and months. The list keeps every project moving and your spot protected.
