Ink Therapy Sessions

From tiny tats to cover ups to large pieces, no idea is too big or small for your next tattoo.

Tiny Tat Ink Therapy

NEW for Spring 2024- Tiny Tat Tuesday!

Each Tiny Tat Ink Therapy Session, available only on Tuesdays, will be approximately 90 minutes.

Tiny Tats are anything smaller than a business card!

Don’t have an idea for a tiny tat?

I’ve got you covered with the “Get What You Get” Tattoo Machine.

Consultations are not required for Tiny Tats. Once you have requested an appointment, you can send any design inspiration photos, description details, and other information in reply to your confirmation text message!

Price varies based on design, placement, and complexity.

Regular Ink Therapy

Regular “Ink Therapy Sessions” are approximately 3-4 hours and can be booked on Wednesday, Thursday, or Saturday.

Consultations are not required for Ink Therapy sessions unless it is a multiple session piece. Once you have requested an appointment, you can send any design inspiration photos, description details, and other information in reply to your confirmation text message!

Price varies based on design, placement, and complexity.

Full-Day Ink Therapy

NEW for Spring 2024- Full Day Ink Therapy Friday!

Another booking option has been added to Friday’s schedule - a Full Day (6.5-8 hours) Ink Therapy session. Full day sessions are for large-scale tattoo pieces or multiple session tats and a great way to get in longer chair time. Large-scale pieces include thigh pieces, arms (sleeves, half sleeves), legs, or back.

Your full day session may also include a homemade lunch by yours truly (I’m an excellent cook, I promise!)

Consultation is REQUIRED for Full Day appointment. Your Full Day appointment request will NOT be confirmed until you have booked a consult appointment at least one month prior to your tattoo appointment. You can book a consult at the same time you request a full-day Friday session.

Price varies based on design, placement, and complexity.

Note: Consultations are only required for large-scale pieces or full-day sessions. While anyone can certainly book a consultation, preference will be given to those who require based on their appointment and tattoo details. Once you request an appointment, you will be able to send any design inspiration images or photos, ideas, description and details including tattoo placement, color or black and grey, size, and more information in reply to the confirmation text message. Please send these items as soon as possible after you make an appointment request! I will let you know if a consult is required or recommended based on what you provide.

Aftercare Tips

  • Always use fragrance-free, hypoallergenic soap and moisturizer when caring for a tattoo. Harsh chemicals can irritate and possibly damage freshly tattooed skin.

  • While healing, covering the tattoo with clothing or a clean, sterile bandage to keep sun exposure to a minimum.

  • Wash the tattoo regularly but gently, especially after dirty or sweaty activities

  • Don't itch or scratch your tattoo during the healing process or pick at scabs.

  • Don't swim and refrain from soaking baths/hot-tubs until the tattoo is fully healed.

What People Are Saying

I had such a fantastic experience here. I asked Ziggy for a custom piece and the design was as if he plucked it from my brain. He was even able to fit me in to meet a deadline. This was my first tattoo and he made sure it was a comfortable and easy experience. The quality of his work speaks for itself; his pieces are beautiful and unique. Ziggy is a one of a kind artist, I can't recommend him enough!

— Stephanie

Great venue - clean, and historic to the NT area so it's a cool place to sit for a few hours while Ziggy works his magic. Ziggy is a true pro - I love the tattoo he did for me. Great guy too - the time flew by. Overall it was a great experience and I couldn't be happier with the results. Now to start brainstorming ideas for my next tattoo...

— Jim

Zig is no doubt, a master of his art. I’ve had 5 tats done by him and they’re all amazing. Nothing plain or out of a book. Everything is a Grind original. 10 star if I could.
