Hey Friends,
Chris here - two life happen-stances with clients so I have tomorrow morning and Monday wide open.

I want to do some whimsical... sci-fi or cool greywash with limited accent color kinda design...
If you have tomorrow or Monday available and want some ink please reach out! 😁

Had a returning client come in, and I got to see a piece healed that I did almost a year ago 🙂-Jen

Finished up this custom military piece today 🇺🇸
Lots of meaning packed into this one and I had a blast bringing it to life. This was his first tattoo and he traveled 1.5 hours to come get it. Appreciate the trust on a project like this.

I always love when I love get to use a bigger cartridge and do some softer shading

Good Morning everyone!

Jen here, this is going to be a longer post…so hang tight 🙃

First off, yesterday was amazing 🥲
Truly.

I was telling a handful of clients that I felt like MAYBE yesterday might have been the busiest flash sale we’ve ever had! I felt like things ran pretty smooth throughout the day…no hiccups.
And it was our first flash sale with vendors, and I thought it went really well! They killed it!

Lots of work goes into these, and we’re not perfect. We are small business owners constantly taking mental notes …”okay, don’t do this next time….this seemed to work well-let’s continue that”

We received our first 1 star review on google last night (it MAY have been taken down since then, because it’s not showing up on our end anymore)
Because they were not able to be seen…
This really bummed me out, it was like the first thing I saw after what I felt was a very fun/successful flash sale.
But.
To grow and learn from this, I want to ask if everyone -potentially -going forward, would just like to start booking time slots during our flash sales?
I go back and forth on this, because it would make things smoother. But. That’s not typically what a flash sale is. It’s first come, first serve….

I want everyone’s thoughts ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Thank you again to everyone who came out yesterday and supported us and the vendors, it was great to see lots of returning faces and lots of new faces too!

The calm before the flash day sale ♥️

We are getting everything prepped and ready for our doors to open tomorrow at 10:00am!
We hope to see lots of new and returning faces!

Parking may be hard along our street because of the church across the street. We will open main doors by the Franklin parking lot as well. You can enter and walk through the building to our end (west end)
Thanks everyone!
