How old do I have to be to receive a tattoo or piercing?

For piercings, if you are under 18 you may bring a parent or legal guardian to sign for you. ID is required.
What method(s) of payment do you accept?
We accept all major Debit/Credit Cards for services over $150.
All services $150 or less must be paid in cash. For your convenience, we have an ATM located onsite.
We do not accept checks.
Do you accept walk- ins/ appointments?
Tattoos: Please call the tattoo studio (704) 583-0909 to inquire about walk-in availability. Artists are normally booked out several weeks in advance but we occasionally have last minute cancellations and always do our best to accommodate you. We highly recommend scheduling an appointment for a tattoo service if you would like to request a specific artist or day of the week. Fridays and Saturdays are usually the busiest for us.
Body Piercings: Appointments Preferred
Laser Tattoo Removal: Appointments Preferred.
I want a quote on a tattoo. Can I receive a quote via email or by phone?
We highly recommend that clients receive quotes in person. We are unable to discuss exact pricing without determining the exact size, placement, etc. of the piece. If you would like an estimate on specific design, send your inspiration photos to kenny@tattoobills.com.
Should I tip my artist?
We encourage you to tip as you feel appropriate. Our artists enjoy receiving this optional recognition for their creation. It is customary to tip 20% or more depending on time of tattoo, level of detail and most importantly, YOUR level of satisfaction.
