Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Witching Hour located? –1960 SE Hawthorne Blvd, suite 102 
. We are on the ground floor, behind Magpie Vintage, and our door faces SE 20th Ave.
What parking is available? – the neighborhood has tons of street parking, and the spaces right outside the shop are absolutely usable (do not mind the 1 Hr signs, we don’t!) There are also angled parking spaces on the opposite side of the building near Temple of Hair.
How do I make an appointment? – First, choose the artist you would like to work with! Then, fill out our consultation request form with information about your project and availability, and the artist will get back to you personally to book a visit. We typically do prefer to schedule consultations before booking tattoo appointments, but that is up to each artist’s discretion.
How much do you charge? -Each artist sets their own hourly rate, ranging from $150-200 per hour, just ask.
What payment type do you accept? – Each artist has their own preferred methods of payment. Some of us prefer cash, others are happy to accept credit/debit or use phone apps. Again, just ask!
What is your cancellation policy? – For just a consultation there is no penalty for cancellation, but please let us know if you can’t make it so we’re not expecting you. – To cancel a tattoo appointment, we request a minimum of 48 hours notice in order to keep your deposit valid for rescheduling (We will make last-minute exceptions for things that are simply out of your control, like illness, injury, or inclement weather. Again, just please let us know!)
What happens at the consultation? – At the consultation you will sit down with the artist and discuss the details of your tattoo project. If after chatting the artist feels you are a good fit and will work well together, they will then require a deposit in order to book a date in the future to come back and start your tattoo.
How do deposits work? – The deposit is a small amount of earnest money up front to show that you are serious about following through with your tattoo, it is used to reserve your future tattoo dates. The deposit will hold however many appointments you need to complete your tattoo, and then it will come off the total of the last session. Deposits are non-refundable. You lose your deposit if you no-call no-show to your appointment, or cancel with less than 48 hours notice (unless there is a very good last-minute reason). Other contingencies may apply, so discuss this with your artist.
How do I care for my tattoo? How long until I can go swimming or be in the sun? -Great questions! Please reach out to your artist directly for their preferred healing methods and instructions. We definitely have answers and opinions! You can also refer to our After Care page.
I am a visual artist/craftsperson interested in showing my work at one of your gallery nights, how do I proceed? – Email us , introduce yourself, tell us a little about your work, and include a few example photos. One of the owners will get back to you with more information.
