Got Questions?

We dont have a shop minimum.  All of our artists know what they need to make and we trust them to stay on top of that.  Because they are not stupid and can do basic arithmetic. Otherwise they wouldn’t work here.  One of the best ways to promote yourself as an artist and to get better is to offer “promotions” or “specials” on certain subject matters, or to offer some free chair tie to really good clients or people who bring them a lot of business. They also realize that times are tough with the inflation, and will try to work with you, especially if its a cool design they are into.Apocalypse Girl is OK with this.

Hell yes, Depending on how cool your shit is.If you are offering sex, Drugs, and Rock N Roll, We however are far too particular and must insist on charging you real money instead.

If I am underage can I get one with parental consent? The legal age to get a Tatoo in North Carolina is 18.No exceptions. Even with Parental consent.

We are a small shop so we recommend Just one. If you are in a large group one person can come back to the artists area with you whilst you are getting tattooed. We ask that if you are in the waiting area you try to be respectful. We try to keep it a fun positive environment, but also we are working and cant really concentrate if things get too rowdy. 

Shower. And makes sure you have eaten and are rested. 

We offer free snacks, candy and beverages at our shop. Some are even hot because we have a microwave, and a coffee maker!  A lot of people pack a bag or a lunch for longer sittings. We are also conveniently located in a hellish suburban landscape near many fast food places and reasonably good restaurants, even if many of them are Chains. Most of them have some kind of delivery service so you can order in.

Absolutely. But it is first come first serve so there’s always a risk walking in that we will be busy.

We try to accoomodate every one in a timely manner, but we are more interested in doing a good tattoo than in making quick money. We have a general rule that if we cant “see” it, that we should take a little time with the design and really make it perfect. We pride ourselves on the fact that if we cant draw it, we probably shouldn’t tattoo it. Also we might pass the design off to another artist in the shop better suited to do that piece. They might be booked out further.

We are a custom shop and we do not really have flash, though we are generally running limited time Specials on Various designs the artists are interested in doing. With the exception of these specials we work hard to make every tattoo as unique as the person its going on. 

We are generally open 12-8 or 9, often staying util 10.. but every artist here has their own key and full access to the studio, so we can work open early or stay late. Keep in mind that we do have families, homes, pets, and other responsibilities outside of Apocalypse Girl so we cant always be available.  The more notice you give us the better chance of accommodating you for special requests.
