FAQ
The artists at HOLM* only work with appointments, we do not do walk-ins. After your project has been approved we usually book you for a session 1 to 3 months later depending on the artist's availability.
You must be 18 years old to enter the tattoo studio & book a tattoo. No one under the age of 18 can enter the tattoo studio. We require you to show us a valid ID on arrival.
Once the tattoo project has been approved and the deposit paid, an email confirmation will be sent with your booking date and time.
On the day of your appointment, we will ask you to complete a personal consent form on arrival. A consultation, included in your appointment, will then take place with your artist. Dedicated to go over the design with the artist, this time will be used to discuss together, make changes and collaborate to create a unique piece for you. The artist will then tattoo you through the rest of the session, making sure both of you get enough breaks to feel comfortable and relaxed.

Everyone’s skin type is different when it comes to healing. We recommend waiting a minimum of two weeks before your next tattoo session. If you work outside and are exposed to dirt we recommend taking a few days out of work after getting your tattoo. If you are going away on a holiday, we recommend waiting 3 to 4 weeks before exposing your new tattoo to direct sunlight and water (chlorine & salt).
All bookings go through the appointment form on our website, feel free to add as many pictures as you want for reference.
