We have different tattoo services based on the size and the complexity of the tattoo (more details or more shading). All tattoo services are a flat price and include tax, the consultation, and an aftercare kit.

  • The Subtle Ephemeral ($175) are tiny to small tattoos with minimal with linework.

No worries if you’re on the fence about your size or product type. You’ll finalize this in the studio during your consultation before the tattooing begins.

Appointments include a free in-studio design consultation where you get to work through the details of your idea with an artist to lock down placement, style, and pricing before any tattooing happens. We want you to love your Ephemeral and are here to answer questions and make the artwork for you.

If you come in for a consultation and realize that you don’t love the design, there’s no pressure to get your Ephemeral — we won’t charge you a cancellation.

Sometimes a tattoo might look larger or smaller on your body depending on your own unique portions and the placement. For example: A smaller sized tattoo might look visually larger on your shoulder than your thigh. So we recommend thinking about tattoo size relative to your own body and placement rather than exact inches.

That’s why every appointment includes a free consultation where your artist will present a few different size and placement options for you to try. We include size guidelines to help you but you’re not locked into place. Don’t get too hung up on that 1/2 inch difference if you’re torn between choosing a size since we can adjust this in studio.

All Ephemeral tattoos are currently available in BLACK ink only. Not only is it the most popular tattoo color, it’s preferred by most tattoo artists and allows fine-line work to stand out.

We are developing Ephemeral color ink (hint: 🔴). It’s a delicate process and takes time, but it’s on the horizon. Sign up for our newsletter in the footer to be the first to hear when new Ephemeral colors become available!

Face, hands, fingers, feet, and toes are unavailable currently till we are confident that these placements will give you the best quality tattoo and fade.
