Hi!
I am interested in getting a single-line tattoo on my leg. Something like the cat here: https://img1.rapidleaks.com/2019/05/best-single-line-tattoos-1280×720.jpg
So my question is:
Do you guys specialize in these kind of tattoos?
And how much does it cost to get a tattoo like that?
Size – 3×3 inches
Is it possible to get colors in the tattoo, like in the example?
Happy to hear back from you guys,
Drew
I also have some other questions, so feel free to answer those:
1. What ingredients in the ink you’d use for the colors in the tattoo?
2. Does color ink causes an itchy rash? I have kinda sensitive skin.
3. Can you perform a patch test?
4. Are you a licensed tattoo artist?
5. In case you did some single-line tattoos, can you share some examples?
Thanks!

Hi Drew!
I have a few artists who work in color here, and tend to do more watercolor than the rest of my other artists. Brandon and Dano tend to work the most in full color and water color. It would be possible for either of them to create something similar to what you sent in.
I’ll do my best to answer your other questions below:
1. What ingredients in the ink you’d use for the colors in the tattoo?
It would depend on the brand and the color. Some brands have vegan inks. Is there a specific ingredient we are looking to avoid?
2. Does color ink cause an itchy rash? I have kinda sensitive skin.
The most common ink color to have an allergic reaction (itchy rash) to is red, and anything with reds in it, so pinks, purples, some browns, ect.
3. Can you perform a patch test?
The only way to perform a patch test would be to have an artist tattoo you. They would either do small dots or lines somewhere you are okay with covering eventually down the road, or in an area you can hide. The patch test would be permanent as well though.
4. Are you a licensed tattoo artist?
The state of Nebraska requires all artists to be licensed in order to provide tattooing services. If someone tells you otherwise, they are tattooing illegally. Every artist in our shop is licensed, and our shop is inspected yearly by the Nebraska Body Arts Commission to ensure we are following all of the requirements and cleaning standards.
5. In case you did some single-line tattoos, can you share some examples?
All of our artist’s portfolios are on our website. Single line tattoos tend to be fairly simple, so we don’t normally post them to their portfolios. You would be able to check out Brandon and Dano’s color work and other more complicated designs through there.

Thanks Drew!
We do tattoo in that style, but do not specialize necessarily. We can do the watercolor effect, but would not want to use too many colors at that small size.
Our price on something like that would be around $120-140 depending on color and size.
Artists portfolios can be seen on the website, or their online platforms. Reactions of any kind to the ink are extremely rare.
We do not do any kinds of test tattoo.
All of our artists are of course licenced. If you’d like to research ink ingredients, most of us use Fusion or Eternal Ink.
Thanks!
