Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your visit to Stranded Ink.

Do you accept walk-ins at Stranded Ink?

Yes, we welcome walk-ins during our regular business hours (Tuesday–Saturday, 10AM–7PM). In most cases, same-day appointments are available depending on artist schedules. However, for larger or more complex pieces, we recommend calling ahead at (928) 318-2729.

How much does a tattoo cost at Stranded Ink?

Tattoo pricing varies based on size, complexity, placement, and time required. First, we provide free consultations with transparent quotes. Then, a $50 non-refundable deposit secures your appointment. This deposit applies toward your final cost.

What tattoo styles do your artists specialize in?

Our artists have 30+ years of combined experience across all major styles. For instance, we create traditional, neo-traditional, black and grey realism, and color realism. Additionally, we specialize in portraits, watercolor, script, and custom original designs. We also excel at cover-ups and reworks.

Is Stranded Ink a good tattoo shop for first-timers?

Absolutely! We pride ourselves on creating a welcoming, family-oriented atmosphere. As a result, first-time clients feel comfortable throughout their experience. Our artists take time to explain the process and answer all questions. That's why we've been voted Yuma's Best for 8 consecutive years.

Do you do tattoo cover-ups?

Yes, cover-ups are one of our specialties. Our experienced artists can transform unwanted tattoos into beautiful new designs. Moreover, we offer touch-ups for faded tattoos and color corrections. To explore your options, simply schedule a free consultation.

Are tattoo deposits refundable?

No, our $50 tattoo deposit is non-refundable. This is because your artist spends time creating custom artwork specifically for your appointment. However, the deposit does apply toward your final tattoo cost—so you're not paying extra. If you need to reschedule, call us at least 24 hours in advance.

Does the deposit count towards my tattoo?

Yes! Your $50 deposit applies directly to your final tattoo price. For example, if your tattoo costs $200, you'll only owe $150 at your appointment. Think of it as a down payment that secures your spot and covers the artist's design time.
