We'd rather make a great tattoo

6 Center St, Chicopee, Massachusetts · Walk-ins welcome
4.7 stars from 220 Google reviews. Medical-grade clean, single-use everything. Single-needle to full custom. Walk-ins welcome.
Fresh from the chair
Black-and-grey, American traditional, color and realism. Pulled straight from the artists' books.
Clean is not negotiable
Single-use needles. Fresh barriers on every surface. Medical-grade equipment, every session. The safety part is the part we never rush, so you can think about the art instead.
We'd rather you hear it from the people who already sat in the chair than from us telling you we're good.
Read the reviewsThe real questions
The stuff people call and ask. Answered straight, so you can just book.
Do you take walk-ins?
Yes, whenever an artist has an opening. For a custom or larger piece, call ahead or come in for a quick consult so we can plan it and book the time it actually needs.
Do I need a deposit?
Custom and larger work takes a deposit to hold your slot. It comes off the final price. It only goes away if you no-show or cancel last minute, since that time was set aside for you.
How old do I have to be?
18 and up with a valid government photo ID. No exceptions, even with a parent in the room. It's a Massachusetts law thing, not a us thing.
What's it going to cost?
Good work is priced by the piece, not rushed by the hour. Tell us your idea, the size and where it goes, and you'll get a straight number before any needle touches skin.
Can you do my own design?
That's most of what we do. Bring a reference, a sketch or just a rough idea, and an artist will draw it up with you until it's right.
How do I take care of it after?
You leave with full aftercare instructions and we're a phone call away. If anything ever looks off while it heals, call us before you worry.
