Question 1

Where are you located?

Accepted Answer

We are conveniently located in Whistler's Marketplace plaza above the TD Bank.

Question 2

What will my tattoo cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost of a tattoo will be determined on which artist will be doing your piece, the nature/complexity of the design, and work involved. It is best to book a consultation with an artist to discuss your tattoo needs, so as they may give you a better estimate of cost for your tattoo.

Question 3

Is there a shop minimum?

Accepted Answer

Our shop minimum is $100. This is for pieces that are simpler ( ie; simple text, or tattoos smaller than 1") or take under 45 minutes.

Question 4

How old do I have to be to get a tattoo?

Accepted Answer

You must be a minimum of 18 year of age to get a tattoo. No parental consent accepted for anyone under 18 years of age. Whistler Tattoo Company requires all clients to produce proper identification upon request to get a tattoo.

Question 5

How do I prepare for my tattoo?

Accepted Answer

- Get a good rest the night before and show up clean and on time. No hangovers. Drugs and alcohol thin the blood and promote excess bleeding which lengthens the healing process. - Have a good healthy breakfast before your appointment. - Bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated. Your water bottle will be sanitized upon entry. Please do not bring any outside food or drinks. - Wear something comfortable to allow your artist better access to the area being tattooed. - Trust your artist. Sit back, and allow your artist to work without too much distraction.

Question 6

Tattoo Aftercare?

Accepted Answer

Your new tattoo will take 3 weeks to fully heal if proper aftercare instructions are followed. At the end of your appointment your artist will go over aftercare instructions and products with you to ensure you understand how to properly care for your tattoo. Aftercare is just as important as the tattoo application process. Scabbing, flaking, peeling and dryness are all normal parts of the healing process. If you are concerned at any point during your healing process please contact us.
