FAQs
How much is a tattoo?
This answer varies for each individual dramatically depending on style, size, placement, amount of detail etc. We will give you an estimated quote during the booking process.
Do you do cover-ups?
Yes, we do! Not all cover-ups are possible, but we will always try to work with you. Send us an email with the photo of the existing tattoo and we’ll see what we can do! We often recommend having some laser session prior to covering up.
Do you take walk-ins?
We are appointment-only. Please feel free to contact us and book an appointment to avoid the disappointment.

Email us at whitewatertattoo@gmail.com, DM us on instagram or Facebook. Alternatively, fill out the form on the website.
What do I need to book an appointment?
When you send us a message it’s helpful to write a description of what you have in mind, with size and placement ideas. Please also include reference pictures where possible. These can be a tattoo styles, placements or just photos that you love! Sometimes we might need to book you on for a consultation, if it is a bigger project, cover-up or your idea isn’t quite clear.
I don’t know what I want.
If you can’t quite decide what you want, either discuss your ideas with us or both artist have a wannado designs available, often discounted and non-repeatable. Why don’t you check that section out?
Can I see my design beforehand?
Of course! We appreciate that tattoos are forever and we need to get it right! We usually send designs over roughly a couple of days before you’re appointment ( sooner for larger pieces i.e sleeve designs). This allows time for adjustments to be made - no pressure if you don’t completely like the design first time round. We’ll make sure you are 100% happy before the day of your appointment.
How do I prepare for my tattoo appointment?
Before your appointment can be almost as important as after! Top Tips:
Do not drink alcohol the night before or day of your appointment.
Don’t turn up on an empty stomach, and feel free to bring a drink or sugary snack.
SUN. Avoid any chance of skin damage from the run up to your tattoo. Damaged skin cannot be tattooed and this will result in rescheduling your appointment with the loss of your booking fee.
Make sure you’ve told up any design changes before your session.
Relax, it’s going to be great!
Can I bring my friend/family?
A friend or family member is always welcome your appointment. Please note that it is an 18+ environment, unsuitable for any children whilst you have your tattoo or consultation.
