COVID-19 PROCEDURES
Tattooing already involves a high standard of safety when it comes to preventing cross-contamination, and both our clients’ and artists’ safety have always been a top priority. However, in light of the coronavirus pandemic, we are implementing additional safety measures:
Tattoos by appointment only. We are not taking walk-ins at this time. Same-day appointments may be possible depending on artist availability. Please call the shop at (206) 783-3366 or contact the artist directly via e-mail or Instagram to schedule an appointment.
Stay home if you have symptoms or have been exposed to anyone showing symptoms. If you experience symptoms including cough/sore throat, fever, chills, shortness of breath, body aches, etc., please call or contact your artist to reschedule. Clients who show up visibly ill will be asked to leave.
Absolutely no guests allowed in the shop. Please do not bring anyone with you to your appointment, as they will not be allowed in the artists’ work area or in the lobby. No exceptions will be made.
Face covering required at all times. Clients and artists must wear a mask that covers the nose and mouth while inside the shop. Clients will not be permitted to enter the shop without a mask.
Social distancing. Clients must maintain a safe distance from everyone in the shop other than their artist. Artist stations will be at least 6’ apart from each other. If you need to take a drink of water or anything else that requires momentary removal of your mask, please do so 6’ away from your artist as well.
Limit what you bring with you. While it is totally fine to bring things like a water bottle or a pair of shorts to change into, please keep what you bring with you to a a minimum. Whenever possible, please refrain from bringing extra bags, devices, or other accessories, in order to limit contact with surfaces inside the shop.
Limit social gatherings before your appointment. Refrain from attending any social gatherings with people outside your household where everyone is not masked 100% of the time (e.g. parties, happy hours, visiting relatives, dining/drinking out even at an outdoor patio) for 14 days before your appointment. This minimizes the artists’, and by proxy, other clients’ potential exposure.
When you arrive for your appointment:
Call (206) 783-3366 to be let in if the front door is locked.
Clean your hands with the provided hand sanitizer at the front desk.
Fill out the waiver form and provide your photo ID to be copied.
Wash or sanitize your hands and once your artist is ready, proceed to their work station.
Payment: although we still accept cash and card, for clients who prefer a contactless payment method, we can arrange payments via Venmo or PayPal.
These procedures will be observed until further notice. If you have any questions or concerns, please call us or contact your artist directly.
