Colorado Springs, CO @ Thirty Three Tigers Tattoo

How do I book with Josh?

All bookings are done through the contact form on this website. Messages are answered in the order they are received. Please allow 5-7 days for a response.

How do I set up a consultation?

Once your message has been responded to, a consultation time will be set. In person consultations are preferred for local clients. A phone consultation will be set up for clients that are traveling.

Please be prepared to provide any information regarding the placement, style, and subject matter of your future tattoo. In most cases a picture of the spot to be tattooed will be needed. Clients that allow for artistic freedom will be given priority.

Once we have determined the details of your tattoo, you will be asked to provide a deposit and an appointment will be set.

How do deposits work?

Deposits are transferable, but non refundable. If you should need to reschedule, please give at least one week notice, and your appointment and deposit will be transferred to another date.

After your consultation, an invoice will be sent to you via email. Deposits vary depending on the scale of work. Multiple session pieces require the last session to be paid in full, and include a free session after the tattoo is healed and settled to insure that you get a quality piece of art that will stand the test of time.

What should I expect on the day of my appointment?

Expect Josh to be there early and prepared for your session.

Please be on time.

Please eat before your appointment.

Please get good sleep the night before your tattoo.

Bring anything that will make the session more comfortable. Snacks, drinks, pillows, blankets, headphones, etc. The more comfortable you are, the smoother the tattooing process will be.

If you are starting large scale work, the stenciling and draw on process can take a significant amount of time. This is the part of your tattoo that will determine the outcome, and it is imperative to get it right.

Can I see my drawing before the appointment?

No.

Your drawing may be started weeks or months before the big day, but the final inking will be done within 24 hours of your appointment.

This is done for several reasons, but it is primarily so the drawing process can serve as a warmup for the tattoo, and your design is fresh in the muscle memory.
