Straight answers
Before you book
How do I book a tattoo at Mother Goose?
You book with the artist, not the studio.
Every artist at Mother Goose is independent and keeps their own books, so you message the one whose work fits your idea — their Instagram is on their page — and they take it from there.
What should I send when I get in touch?
Placement, rough size, the style you are after, and a couple of reference images.
If you are flexible on dates, say so — it usually means you get in sooner.
Do I need a consultation first?
For a large or custom piece, usually yes — most artists want to talk it through before drawing.
Small and flash work often goes straight to a booking. Ask your artist; they will tell you which it is.
How much will it cost?
Each artist sets their own rates, so the quote comes from them rather than the studio.
Send your reference and placement and they will give you a number.
Can you cover up or lighten an old tattoo?
Yes. Ink Off Laser is in the same building, so an old piece can be lightened on site before your artist starts drawing the cover-up. Talk to your artist first — they will say how many laser sessions it needs.
