Can I walk up and get tattooed?

Plenty of artists take walk-ups at shows. The artist list will say who.

First time at a show?

1. Bring your ID. Every waiver asks for it.
2. Walk-ups go early. Artists often book up by Saturday afternoon.
3. Flash is the fast lane: pick a design off the sheet and sit the same day.
4. Eat first, bring water, and ask your artist about aftercare before you leave.
