Here's how you can help to make Friday the 13th go smoothly for your favorite Daredevil tattoo artist.
We start around 12 noon. Sometimes we're a little late getting the door open because we're still finishing the sheet. That's one reason why you can't come by beforehand to see the sheet. The other reason is that we're working and don't want to deal with people coming by to see the sheet.
Your choices are limited to what is on the sheet that day. That means no art directing, changes etc what you see is what you get to choose from. If during the course of the day we decide we hate a particular design because we're sick of it we might discontinue or "sell out" of that design. Tough.
Bring your cell phone so we can call you when it's your turn to get tattooed. We can't have a million people standing outside all day so you might have to go for a walk and be back when we call you. We don't want to inconvenience our neighbors in any way. That means DON'T BLOCK ANY ENTRANCES to any buildings, apartments or businesses. Bring a couple bucks to get a snack or do some shopping so the other businesses enjoy the crowds of people we bring down to the neighborhood.
BRING YOUR ID!!!!! No ID, no tattoo. You must be at least 18 years old with valid state ID (passport, drivers license) to get tattooed. One per person.
Bring cash. Dress appropriately so you're not freezing your but off while you wait. Don't come if you have the pig flu.
We won't tattoo any necks, hands, feet, lower backs, bellies, faces, chests on this day. The reason is that those areas take longer to tattoo or can be problematic to heal and we don't want to be touching up $20 tattoos. We also want to tattoo as many people as possible so we try to keep it simple for ourselves tp keep the line moving.
This is a very long gruelling day for us, when we say we're done, we're done. Try to behave and be as polite and gracious as possible. It's a lot of work, we do it for the fun. If it's not fun we won't do it. So don't bring your entitlement issues. This is the worst possible day to come in to the shop to get tattooed especially if you don't like crowds, don't like chaos and are picky. It's a crazy day, enter and get tattooed at your own risk.
