- Colour-heavy pieces benefit from a structured touch-up visit 4–6 weeks after healing.
- Walk-in availability isn't always posted online — a quick phone call is the fastest way to know if they can fit you in today.
- Calendars tend to book several weeks out — reach out as early as possible if you have a target date.

From beginning to end Saraloni was fabulous to work with. Her artistry is mind blowing! It's a memorial tattoo of my mom along with my mom's hand written "lov" when she was her sickest. Brought tears to my eyes when I saw the finished piece. I had to keep myself from doing the ugly cry. The shop is very clean with a classy dark vibe. 10 stars
I have had five sessions with Cat and she consistently delivers exceptional results. Her attention to detail on my black and grey sleeve is amazing. I particularly appreciate how great she is at putting a piece together and her flexibility when I had last minute adjustments. Beyond the new work she also rescued a faded and poorly designed flower tatto, expertly reworking it making it something I am proud to show off again. A top-tier artist and fantastic experience overall!
Been coming here for over a year now and love coming back when I do. Most appointments are made for noon but realistically it always starts a bit later after going over fitting or any tweaks that need to be made, which I appreciate so much. I've been to shops where they rush you but here they really take the time to get it right before the tattoo. I would definitely recommend Saraloni , she has been amazing with color and BnG with the couple of pieces I've done with her. Best shop in town!
