FAQ

  • Every tattoo is different and pricing can vary depending on size, style, and detail of the tattoo. For reference my minimum is $150 per appointment (very very small tattoos may be as low as $100). A good round about pricing is 3-4 inch tattoos between $250-$350, 5-6 inch between $450-500. My full day appointment at the shop usually isn’t more than $800.

  • I require a 50 non-refundable deposit that will come off the final cost of the tattoo.

    Please be aware of scammers. All deposits go through my website on my appointment page or more rarely either my Zelle or my Venmo (for conventions mostly). I have my Venmo linked on my website and my Zelle is my email chromaticsauce.cs@gmail.com.

  • I’m currently a resident artist at Daruma Tattoo 2205 Delsea Dr Suite C, Franklinville, NJ 08322. This is where our appointment will be. When you get there it’s in the strip mall and around the corner to the right!

    (make sure you have the right address its not the one in Toms River lol)

  • I’m recently revamping how I do my booking again lol. Please head to my appointment page to check for available days in my calendar. You can fill out the form there or contact me through email or Instagram to request a day!

  • Stay hydrated the week before. Make sure you’re well rested for the day of. Eat within 4 hours before your appointment so your blood sugar doesn’t crash. Bring snacks too if you’d like (we also have some at the shop). Don’t forget to bring your Photo ID.

  • You can pay Cash or Card at the shop. Every transaction is taxed.

    Card payments have an additional 3% transaction fee.

    If you’re getting tattooed by me at a convention I accept cash only! I do not have my own card reader for mobile transactions. The only alternative would be either Venmo or Zelle. Please let me know ahead of time if you plan to pay this way!

    Also always be wary of scammers accepting money on my behalf; my deposit payments go through my website and I have links to my Venmo on my website so you know it’s legit!

  • I don’t typically do the drawing too far in advance. Sometimes I’ll finish up the design while you’re in the shop just to make sure you like the sketch too! I’m always open to changing aspects of the design if there is anything you don’t like.

  • While it’s not my preference and I don’t necesarily recommend it, a lot of people really enjoy using numbing cream. I just ask that you let me know ahead of time if you plan on using any. Sometimes we may want to apply it in the shop before the stenciling process. Don’t forget: do your research, do a patch test.

  • All I ask for is open communication! Don’t leave me hanging. That being said, repeat cancellations /reschedules could result in the forfeiture of your deposit and potentially future appointments.

  • I do not typically tattoo people under the age of 18. I occasionally will tattoo something small on someone at least 16 yrs old. With parent consent and parent present.
