Disrespecting Boundaries & Studio Policies

  • Poor Hygiene: Artists work in close quarters for hours; lack of showering is a primary annoyance.
  • Intoxication: Arriving hungover or under the influence  Pretty much your a asshole and we dont want to deal with you You dont go to the doctors drunk.Respect the craft.
  • The Peanut Gallery: Bringing an entourage of friends to crowd the shop its not a party.
  • No-Shows and Lateness: Flaking on appointments or showing up significantly late wastes valuable earning time.

Micromanaging and Changing Designs

  • Drastic Last-Minute Changes: Demanding total design overhauls on the day of the appointment nullifies hours of prior drawing time.
  • Micromanaging: Telling a professional artist exactly how to do their job—especially after choosing them based on their specific portfolio—creates a stressful, uncollaborative environment.
  • Copying Others: Insisting the artist replicate another artist's exact custom work is highly discouraged in the tattooing community. 

In-Session Disruptions

  • Inability to Sit Still: Fidgeting, laughing excessively while texting, or talking with your hands causes lines to slip and ruins the tattoo's precision.Playing your phone out loud No one wants to hear that shit. 
  • Excessive Pain Complaining: While getting a tattoo hurts, constantly asking the artist to stop or complaining loudly throughout the session makes the process exhausting for everyone involved.Basically your being a Bitch.Tattoo is not for you.

Common Courtesy

  • Haggle & Price Shopping: Arguing over rates or treating the artist like a budget service often results in a poor overall experience.
  • Ignoring Aftercare: Neglecting instructions or using outdated advice (e.g., using poor-quality generic lotions) damages the healed result of the artist's hard work.
  • Smoking or Vaping in the Studio when you been told not to Would you let your doctor do surgery while hes smoking a cigarette.
