Good to know before you book
- Traditional pieces tend to be quoted by piece, not hourly. Ask for flash sheets if you want a same-week appointment.
- Larger Japanese pieces are usually booked across multiple sittings — plan for at least two visits.
- Realism and portrait work depends heavily on reference quality — clean, well-lit source photos make the biggest difference.
- Cover-ups are quoted in person — bring a clear photo of the existing piece before requesting a quote.
- 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.

I had an amazing experience getting tattooed by Jasmine. She was incredibly professional, kind, and easy to talk to, which made the whole session comfortable and fun. The tattoo is extra special to me because it incorporates photos I’ve taken of one of our local estuaries, and Jasmine did an incredible job turning them into a stunning, artistic layout. I genuinely feel like I have a piece of art on my arm—I'm blown away by how beautiful it turned out!! I couldn’t recommend her more! Thanks Jasmine!
Kristjan did some finger tattoos for me and I LOVE them! He did a great job - honored my request for fine lines beautifully, and took the time to capture particular details (angle, dimensions) that made these little designs absolutely perfect. Now I would like more, please! Such a positive experience.
I am over the moon with my experience and my new tattoo from Chris Cockerell at Remington Tattoo!! Everyone was very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I've had a lot of crappy things happen to me this year but my new tattoos are a highlight. The experience was very therapeutic and I'm so happy. I highly recommend getting your tattoo here! I also want to add that the energy is so comfortable there, so if you're nervous about getting your first or next tat, this shop will help you feel at ease. I have 2 other pieces prior to this and, while they were both done a long time ago, I just remember how intimidating each of my artists were. Not here! The artists are very knowledgeable and non judgemental. It's a breathe of fresh air in there, really. Kinda can't want to go and get another one.
