FAQ

 

Where are you based?

 

 

I am based at Team Crunk HQ Tattoo, 13 North Cross Street, Gosport. We are situated next to 33 Green bottles and Dimensions hair salon.

We are just off the high street, 5 minutes walk from Gosport Ferry to Portsmouth Harbour

The closest train station is Portsmouth Harbour, The Bus station is a 5 minute walk, just next to the ferry. There is also a taxi rank next to the ferry port. 

Is there parking at the studio?

 

 

There is  parking outside the front of the studio either on road parking (limited to 30 minutes) or there is a car park opposite which is limited to 2 hours and the first hour is free. The closest long stay car park is Minnit Road which is a 2 minute walk away.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes you can bring someone with you if you feel more comfortable with a tattoo companion! Our studio is quite small and does get busy so I would advise just one guest. Unfortunately we cannot allow children in the studio.

Will I have to pay a deposit?

I require a deposit for every booking. A deposit of £60 for day sessions, £20 for a minimum charge appointment (£50) and £40 for all other appointments. The deposit is non refundable but will come off the price of the tattoo when it comes to paying on the day. If you cancel with less than 24 hours notice I will need to keep the deposit and will require a new deposit to rebook the appointment, due to being self employed, last minute cancellations affect my income. If more than 24 hours notice is given then I will move the deposit forward to the rebooked appointment or hold on to it until you are able to rebook.  Deposits can be sent either by Paypal, Bank transfer or cash at the studio. Send me a message if you require my bank / paypal details. 

How do I cancel my appointment?

If you need to cancel or rearrange your appointment just drop me a message on either my facebook, email or instagram. I understand that things happen that we can't always help, however I do ask for as much notice as possible so I can fill the space with another booking. 24 hours + is required for the deposit to be carried over.

 

Do you provide aftercare?

Currently we do not stock aftercare at the studio but we will either wrap the tattoo in cling film or apply plaster spray. I would recommend using either Cocoa butter, YAYO or Hustle butter. For further details on caring for your tattoo please check my 'Caring for your tattoo' page.

Do you take card payments at the studio?

We do not currently take card payments at the studio, we are cash only or alternatively I can accept paypal or Bank Transfer.

 

Can I see the design before my appointment?

Due to my workload I don't often get to finalize the design until the night before the appointment so I don't show the design prior, I will send you a sketch sometime the day before the appointment, usually in the evening, however I leave plenty of time to make any changes needed and make sure you are happy with the design. 

Do you have wheelchair access?

Unfortunately we have a small step to get into our studio but if you have some mobility I am always happy to help.

Do you do coverups / reworks?

Yes! I really enjoy brining life back to old tattoos. When booking in be sure to send clear photos of the tattoo that you would like to be fixed up. Not all tattoos can be covered but if you are unsure, fill out a booking form including photos of the tattoo and the surrounding area of the tattoo so I can see how much space I have to work with and I will see if I think it is possible. Some tattoos may need a few sessions of laser removal treatment before being covered as they are too dark.

 

Does your studio offer Laser removal?

We do not curerntly offer laser removal at the studio.

Does your studio do piercings?

We do not currently offer piercings at the studio.

Is there anywhere to eat or get coffee nearby?

We are located right next to the Highstreet so there are plenty of places to eat and get coffee. I would recommend Katie's Vinyl Bar & Kitchen which is a 1 minute walk from the studio. There is also a Costa, Coffee #1, Greggs, KFC, Morrisons, Wetherspoons, and a few newsagents. If you have time to kill whilst you wait for your bus etc there are also plenty of charity shops!
