You must be 18 or older. Please ensure you bring a valid ID to your appointment.

No, we do not offer piercings.

Arrive well-rested, hydrated, and fed. Avoid drinking alcohol or taking blood thinners before, during, and after your session. Wear something you will be comfortable in. We play music in the shop, but you are welcome to bring along headphones or other forms of entertainment with you. Be sure to bring a valid ID.

We recommend you wear something comfortable and unrestrictive. Be sure that what you wear allows access to the area of your body that is getting tattooed. Please reach out to us if you have further questions.

We accept cash or card.

You are more than welcome to bring someone with you for support during your tattoo. However, we do ask that you please limit it to one guest as we are a smaller studio.

There is no designated parking, however, there is ample street parking available on Walker St. and 42nd Ave. Please allow yourself time to find parking prior to your appointment time.

We take every precaution and step needed to ensure our space is safe and sterilized for each and every one of our clients before, during, and after their tattoos. Our artist is trained and certified in cross-contamination prevention. Furthermore, it is of utmost importance to us that we provide and maintain a comfortable and welcoming environment for everyone. Please feel free to reach out to info@kingtideink.com with any further questions.

We want everyone to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible throughout their session. Since we only have one client at a time, you will have complete privacy in our studio.

- Your tattoo will be wrapped in Saniderm when you leave the shop. You will want to leave this on for 24-36 hours. - When you remove the wrap, be sure to first wash your hands with an antibacterial fragrance-free liquid soap (such as Dial). It is recommended that you remove the wrap either during a shower or under running warm water. Next, using your fingertips, clean your tattoo with the antibacterial soap and warm water. Gently pat it dry with a clean towel. ​ - When the skin is dry, apply a THIN layer of Aquaphor or A&D ointment to the tattoo. Reapply as needed.

- Continue to apply a THIN layer of the ointment to your tattoo 2-3 times per day, or when it feels dry. - Keep your tattoo out of direct sunlight. - Do NOT scratch or pick at your tattoo. It will likely itch during the healing process and you might see dark flakes peel off as it heals. This is completely normal. - Do NOT swim, go in a hot tub, or take a bath.

- As your tattoo heals, it is expected for it to lose some of its initial vibrancy. In order to avoid excessive fading, be diligent with applying sunscreen for the lifetime of your tattoo. - With extremely fine-line tattoos, it is possible that some touch-ups may be needed in certain areas once the healing process is complete. Touch-ups are always free, just shoot an email to info@kingtideink.com to schedule a time to come in.
