Skinks Tattoo Studio

Established in 1996, we are one of New Zealand’s most awarded

studios with internationally recognised artists specialising in a vast array of artistic styles.

The Skinks family pride ourselves in creating original and unique art specifically for our clients. On behalf of all the team here we invite you to come in experience and share in our culture.

CONSULTATIONS

Consultations are free of charge, and take place at 9:30am Monday – Saturday. If you would like to book a consult to discuss any ideas (new or old) please phone the studio on 07 854 9646.

DEPOSITS

We take a deposit of $50 per hour booked to reserve any appointment made. We would prefer this to be paid in person, though in special circumstances we can arrange an online payment. A deposit must be made a time of booking.

If you have arranged to make a deposit online, please include the following information: First name, initial of surname, booking date and artist. In addition you will need to inform us once any payment has been made. (Note bookings are not confirmed until payment has been received).

Your deposit will come off the final transaction on completion of your tattoo. For ongoing work your deposit will be rolled over to your next booking, rather than making an additional deposit payment with each booking.

Deposits are there to protect the artists from no-shows and last minute cancellations. Failure to notify us with 7 days (or more than 3 reschedules) will result in the loss of your deposit.

DESIGN

All design work is free of charge with a design ready to view on the day of your appointment. To make the design process as straightforward as possible for both parties we ask that clients provide us with as much information as possible at time of booking, including: size, location, and any reference images you may have. Please note that each of us here at Skinks Tattoo Studio has their own unique style and specialty and as such any reference supplied will be re-interpreted by your chosen artist.
