How to request an Appointment
Welcome, and thank you for expressing an interest in having your tattoo done at Draw the Line Tattoo Club. We are beyond grateful for each and everyone of you for your constant support and patronage. Here you will find the details for our booking process for appointment requests. As appreciative and grateful as we are for the volume of interest and inquiries received, we unfortunately being a studio consisting of only three artists, are not able to accommodate every request received. Below you will find some guidelines to help with your initial email request for an appointment. Please note that if your email does not include the information below it will not be considered for scheduling.
To request an appointment please e-mail info@drawthelinetattooclub.com and include the following:
A description of the tattoo design you want.
Approximate size and dimensions, in inches.
Placement (which body part and where on that part).
Any reference images (please note: We will not copy an exact image, but to use as a reference point of what you like visually in terms of style, color, composition, etc.)
In the subject line please include the artist you are requesting, as well as the month you would like the appointment.
A contact number that we may reach you at, as well as where you’ll be traveling from.
I emailed, now what?
Unfortunately, we are unable to take on every tattoo request so we have added a section below to help give a better idea of the content we are focused on for scheduling. Our books open and close monthly, and typically we wish to book one month at a time only. If you are trying to align your appointment with travel dates please send your email request at one or two months prior (for example send your e-mail before August if you wish to be tattooed in September). Please include your desired time frame so that we may accommodate you the best that we possibly can. We receive an overwhelmingly large volume of emails as such at this time and we try to respond to everyone that reaches out for a tattoo.
Why did my appointment request get rejected?
We are fortunate to receive more requests for tattoo work than we can accommodate at any given time, so please don’t take it personally. If your design does not fit within the artist's specialties, or they simply can't take on any new work at the moment, they will decline. We have to turn away some work because we will not compromise quality or time spent with clients to take on a higher volume. We want you to end up with an artist that has the time, interest, and ability to give you the attention your tattoo deserves, and who will do an amazing job at it, even if they don't work in our studio.

TATTOO SELECTION
Our artists are now focusing solely on tattooing their own artwork based on selective darker-themed imagery and concepts provided. They are extremely fortunate to be approached with so many amazing inquiries and cannot express their appreciation enough. While they would love to take on every request, it is just not possible with having only two tattoo artists in our shop so we've added some content below to explain how the selection process works.
Appointments are booked one month in advance.
Due to the amount of inquiries priority will be given to selective darker-themed imagery that fits the artists’ style, both conceptually and in their personalized illustrative style.
The artists will give priority to medium to larger-sized tattoos as it allows them to add details that they would not be able to include in smaller-sized tattoos. If you are interested in a smaller tattoo or something off of a flash sheet our artists will try to have you in after they finish their main appointments for the day, but this will largely depend on if time allows it so please include dates you are hoping to have said tattoo done.
Since priority is given to larger appointments we will schedule days that are specifically dedicated to flash tattoos and will have a flash sheet available for selections for these days. Flash days will be announced through social media so please keep an eye out for upcoming events. If you attend one of these events, tattoos will be done on a first come first serve basis so please understand if we are not able to get to you there will be another event and we will do our best to accommodate as many people as we can.
Due to only having two artists we do not take walk-ins
