Per the Florida Department of Health, you must be 18 with a valid ID, or be accompanied by a legal guardian with a notarized minor consent form. No exceptions. ### Do you take walk-ins? Yes. Walk-ins are welcome depending on [the artists](https://tilldeathtattoostudio.com/artists/)’ schedules. If an artist is free and you know what you want, you can get tattooed that day. Bigger pieces usually need a consultation first. ### Is a deposit required? Yes for custom and larger work. Deposits start at $100 and depend on the size and complexity of the design. 100% of the deposit goes toward your tattoo. A no-call or no-show forfeits the deposit. ### How much will my tattoo cost? Each artist sets their own price based on size, placement, color and detail. Smaller tattoos can usually be quoted up front; larger or more complex work is priced at the artist’s hourly rate.
