Our Services
Welcome to Ink Finesse Gallery, where we take immense pride in offering a truly unique and wholly tailored tattoo experience that caters to your individual desires and aspirations. Our approach is distinctly different; we do not charge by the hour, as we find it more fitting to operate based on a session-based model or by the piece. This method guarantees that each design receives the meticulous attention and artistic craftsmanship it genuinely deserves during the tattooing process, ensuring that your vision is seamlessly transformed into a work of art you can cherish.
To secure your booking with us, we require a deposit of $300 non-refundable for a comprehensive full-day session, which allows for an in-depth exploration of your ideas, creative vision, and the potential to develop something extraordinary together. The outcome is not just a design that is visually striking but one that is deeply personal and meaningful to you. For a regular tattoo session, a deposit of $100 non-refundable is necessary, serving to confirm your appointment and ensuring our artists are prepared to devote their full attention to your design. This policy not only safeguards your spot with us but also enables our exceptionally talented artists to dedicate their time and creative resources entirely to each client.
We strive to foster an inviting atmosphere filled with sophistication and exceptional craftsmanship that enhances your experience and elevates your expectations. We are genuinely excited and look forward to the unique opportunity to collaborate with you on your personal tattoo journey in an environment that celebrates the beautiful art of body expression.
