Walk-ins or customs. No trends &#8211; just tattoos well done and ink that lasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Appointment or Walk-in?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Walk-ins daily, quick ideas or flash designs &#8211; depending on available times. First come, first served &#8211; better call before. For customs, contact the shop and arrange a consultation. Book early; slots fill fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Does it hurt?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depends on the spot. Show up well rested, have a good breakfast before and you&#8217;ll be fine. We know what we&#8217;re doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">What styles?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Various styles, from traditional to graphic realism. Guest artists sometimes. <br>Research and reference your ideas. <br>Each tattooer has his own style and vision &#8211; what we all have in common is standards and commitement,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Can I bring friends?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One person max. No kids, no pets, no crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Age check: Can my kid tag along or get inked?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">18+ only. No minors, no exceptions. Kids in the shop? Only passing through, no needles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Hands or neck tattoos?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only if you\u2019re already covered &#8211; No first-tattoo showpieces.<br>Come back when you\u2019ve got 3\u20135 solid ones.<br>We protect the craft. And your future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Prep game: What do I do before showing up?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eat solid. Hydrate. No booze or blood thinners 24 hours prior. Shower. Wear loose clothes. Show up hungry or hungover &#8211; we send you home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">No-go zones: Pregnant, sick, or medicated?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pregnant? Wait. Sick or on heavy meds? Reschedule. Ink\u2019s an open wound\u2014don\u2019t gamble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Healing time?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surface: 1-2 weeks. Full heal: 6 months.

Bail mid-way? You pay for time done. No refunds on half ink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Removing it: Can I laser this off later?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Possible. Expensive. Painful. Scars likely. Think before you sit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any other questions: Feel free to ask.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-017ee62\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"017ee62\"><style>@media screen and (min-width: 768px){.stk-017ee62 {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(18% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 2 \/ 3 ) !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-017ee62-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-017ee62-inner-blocks\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAQ Frequently Asked Questions What is Alley Cat?
