Hey all! Averee has opportunities to book in this month left, as well as throughout July! Reach out to her to schedule — if you don't have Instagram, feel free to reach out through FB or the shop number for her and you'll be put in contact! Kt is booked full for July, but *does* still have weekday availability in August, so reach out to get scheduled in!

Both Kt and Averee will be out of the shop 6/25 — 6/29, with Kt being out until 7/7 (and likely unable to respond to any correspondence at all 6/27-7/3). Kt will also be out as traditionally the last 2 weeks of July, 7/17 thru 7/31.

As always:
-we will be closed 7/1 🖤
-our 20% off gift certificates for 13 days of Christmas in July special will run — details to come
-we can't express how greatly we appreciate y'all's trust, support and care! Thank you 💖

Hey, Kt here.

I've been in a terrible fibromyalgia flare all this week and am currently way further behind on designs and follow up and just everything than I would ever like to be. ...I've been trying to thug it out, but it's hard when some days you can't keep your eyes open and it hurts to think about moving, let alone actually move.

That said, I'm hoping for an upswing this weekend 🤞🏽 and I'm working on making sure I've followed up in contacting people. So, if you haven't heard from me, I'm not ghosting you, I'm having a rough go. Please feel free to shoot another message if you haven't heard from me by Monday — I may have overlooked it in the queue, or I'm still behind on things, worst case scenario.

Thank you all for your patience ✨

May whoever fills that maternal role in your life have a wonderful day today! Happy Mother's Day to all our wonderful clients that are moms.

(Protip: there's a lot of moms that will gladly accept the ability to get tattoo flowers in lieu of actual flowers 😁)

Averee still has availability! And she has specials and new flash going on this month!

Interested? Check out and DM her directly over to find out more and book! (Or reach out thru here or text @502.830.9731 and we'll get you together ASAP!)

Hey guys — I (Kt) will be out of the shop for the next few days, so if replies are delayed by several days instead of several hours, that'll be why. I'm probably going to be mostly incommunicado, but around Thursday or possibly as late as Sunday/next Monday, I should be back to replying dedicatedly. Please don't hesitate to reach out still — just know it may take me a bit to get back to you. Averee is still just a message away at instagram.com/avereetattoos. We're hoping to possibly have some flash specials with Averee put together in the coming months, so keep an eye out! ;)

Love and appreciation
✨Kt

Slow to post, but here's our availabilities!

Ready for your next piece? Reach out here, via text to 502.830.9731, contact Averee directly on Instagram — or drop in of course (if the open light is on and a blue or black SUV or a red sedan is out front, feel free — but please know we're likely in an appointment and may only have a brief time to touch base)! Let's get your ideas designed and get your ink therapy on!

(Sidenote: if you have an idea that has bold lines and/or American traditional vibes, Averee would be stoked to work with you! It's not her only style, but it's her wheelhouse and her favourite)

Edit {15:52 4/12}: 5/15 and 5/22 have been claimed with Kt; early 5/27 remains available

IT'S A WRAP!

What a cool experience! (Definitely a bit of a learning curve, but lessons, tips, tricks and notes have been taken for the next opportunity)

So much appreciation and gratitude for the clients that came through — for ink or just to say hi — as well as the new people that discovered us this weekend and the dope artists and vendors we got acquainted with!

Monday is a final incommunicado day! Kt will be in Tuesday thru Friday, but out of town 4/4 to 4/8 to visit family (as a heads up, at the end of the month 4/27 to 5/1 another mini vacay will be had). ...Averee has April availability that should be posted in the near future! Let's fill her books!

Many thanks and much much love again!! 💕
