A full team, not a solo artist.
Most live tattooing means hiring a local studio artist with a folding chair. We built a different model: a trained team, custom flash, a digital queue, permits handled, insurance included. The artist only tattoos. Everything else runs around them.
Event-trained artists
The artist only tattoos. No managing the line, no cleaning the station, no answering questions mid-needle. That focus is why we move 3-4× faster than a solo setup without losing quality.
Everyone shows up
Artist, assistant, check-in host, event coordinator, and more — everyone shows up. Guest flow, consultations, tattooing, aftercare, waivers, queue management. You don’t staff our station. We run it.
Custom flash, per event
No generic flash sheets. Our in-house illustrator designs 10-15 original pieces for your activation. Your brand, your city, your couple, your theme. Two rounds of review, then we print. Piercing, branded aftercare, content capture, custom crew apparel — add-ons available.
Safety built in
Every artist is licensed with current BBP certification. Single-use equipment. $2M liability insurance — we’ll add your company as additional insured. Permits handled per city, per event. No surprises for your legal team.

Our system vs. a solo artist
Why your safety, your guests, and your legal team need more than a single artist with a kit.
Purpose-built for events
To ensure safety, speed, and hospitality, we do not send solo artists. Every station is staffed with minimum of 4-person crew.

FAQs
The questions planners and brands ask before they book us — not the logistics (those are on our FAQ page), but the ones about whether we’re the right call.
You can. A solo artist does 1-2 tattoos an hour, carries their own permits in most states, and has never been trained to read a room at an event. Our setup does 3-5 per artist, handles every permit, and the artist is only ever tattooing. The difference is the three other people around them.
A 10×10 footprint, two professional stations, adjustable lighting, and a check-in stand. Guests scan a QR code, sign a digital waiver, pick from the flash sheet, and get a text when it’s their turn. No physical line. No congestion. It looks like it belongs in the room — designed to match your event, not dropped in from a convention center.
It’s the opposite of a problem — it’s the most common scenario. A huge share of guests get their first tattoo at our events. Free + a small curated flash sheet + a 10-minute commitment dissolves the friction that normally stops people. The host quietly moves nervous guests to the front. The check-in person walks them through it. The artist knows how to handle a first-timer.
Our check-in hosts are RBS-trained (Responsible Beverage Service). They monitor the queue and quietly move anyone who’s had too much down the waitlist. No confrontation, no awkwardness, no scene. The guest just gets a later text. This is one of the reasons we don’t send solo artists — someone has to be the buffer, and it shouldn’t be the person holding the needle.
Every artist is licensed with current Bloodborne Pathogen training. Single-use equipment on every guest. $2 million in liability insurance, with your company added as additional insured. We’ve given over 2,800 tattoos across five years. Zero safety incidents. If a guest needs a touch-up, it’s covered for 30 days at our partner studios — though across thousands of event tattoos, no one ever has.
Yes. Our in-house illustrator designs the sheet with you — two rounds of review, then we print. You’ll see every design before event day. We typically start with 20-25 concepts and narrow to 10-15. The sheet is built around your event: your brand, your city, your couple, your theme. No two events share a sheet.
<p>The flash is custom-illustrated for your aesthetic. Our staff dresses to match the room — blacked out, costumed, or in normal clothes. The station is styled, not clinical. We've set up in hotel lobbies, ballroom floors, and private estates. The goal is to look like we were always part of it, not like a booth got dropped in from outside.</p>
