FAQ's
HOW MUCH WILL MY TATTOO COST? Pricing for a tattoo will vary, quotes are based on the design, placement and estimated time to complete the tattoo. For an quote, please contact Riaan via WhatsApp.
HOW DO I PAY FOR MY TATTOO? Riaan requires a deposit in order to secure your booking. This deposit can be made as a bank transfer. Your deposit will be deducted from the overall price. You can pay for the remaining amount after your appointment via cash or deposit.
CAN I GET TATTOOED IF I AM PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING? No, it is not recommended for breastfeeding or pregnant women to get tattooed.
CAN YOU DESIGN ANY TATTOO I WANT? Of course, Riaan will design a custom stencil to suite the placement of the tattoo and the references you send at no extra cost. He is happy to consult with his clients to create the best design.
DO YOU DO COVER UP TATTOO'S? Riaan is happy to help touch up or rework old tattoos, or even cover them up if possible. However, whether or not we can do this depends on the specific tattoo. Send through an image of the tattoo you would like to cover up and he will get back to you.
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED? Riaan tattoo's from the privacy of his studio located in Blouberg. He has owned two tattoo shops but during COVID he decided to open up a private studio. He now works on his own, focusing on providing the best service to his clients with over 10 years of experience.
